• Professional approach to serving both internal and external clients.
• Strong research, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to manage multiple assignments, deadlines, and transaction details.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
• Experience with CRM, transaction-management, or real estate research platforms is an advantage.
• Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with a brokerage team.

Responsibilities

• Research local market conditions, available properties, comparable transactions, pricing, and prospective clients.
• Generate new business opportunities through calls, emails, networking, referrals, and targeted market outreach.
• Support senior brokers in developing and maintaining relationships with occupiers, owners, investors, landlords, and other industry professionals.
• Assist with lease renewals, new leases, subleases, lease terminations, property purchases, and sales.
• Coordinate transaction activities in accordance with client objectives, timelines, and internal procedures.

• Prepare market surveys, client tour materials, requests for proposals, counterproposals, letters of intent, broker opinions of value, deal summaries, and presentation materials.
• Assist senior brokers with lease and contract negotiations, including tracking proposals, amendments, critical dates, and outstanding items.
• Prepare and review basic financial analyses, including cash-flow projections, net present value, internal rate of return, and comparisons of multiple transaction scenarios.
• Maintain the transaction tracking system and monitor deadlines to support the timely completion of assignments.
• Organize transaction documents, executed agreements, lease abstracts, contact lists, activity logs, and project closeout files.
• Schedule client meetings and property tours and respond promptly to transaction-related inquiries.
• Prepare reports and presentations for clients and internal stakeholders.
