About The Position

Federal Realty is a proven leader in the ownership, operation, development and redevelopment of premium retail real estate in the country's best markets. We are an innovative and dynamic real estate company that owns and manages a best-in-class portfolio of community shopping centers and mixed-use properties. Federal Realty’s well-respected real estate investment and management team delivers a significant combination of small and large scale, value-add investments that make working at Federal rewarding. While Federal Realty is one of the largest publicly traded real estate investment trusts in the country, as measured by the value of our assets, we're functionally a small company by most standards and we operate that way. Team members with initiative and proven ability get involved in many facets of executing Federal’s business plan. Federal Realty is seeking a Financial Analyst for the Finance team to provide strategic, financial, and analytical support for its Maryland, Florida and Central portfolios. The Financial Analyst partners with Asset Management, Leasing, Operations, Construction and Development teams to provide financial support and apply an owner’s mindset to identify opportunities that grow income and create lasting value across the portfolio. This is a unique opportunity to work in a hands-on team environment while gaining valuable experience in all facets of commercial real estate. This position is based in North Bethesda, Maryland, and is available on a hybrid basis: four days in office and one day remote each week.
