Associate Director / Director
ABOUT THE ROLE
WeWork is seeking Directors to join the Global Real Estate Advisory (REA) Team within our fast-growing Enterprise business.
The Global Enterprise team is on a mission to be the leading real estate partner for the world's largest and fastest growing companies. In response to unprecedented demand from major global corporations, our goal is to leverage WeWork's flexible space solutions, global business community, and innovative workplace technology to revolutionize how people work. Enterprise members to date include a majority of Fortune 500 companies and name-brand growth companies spanning a variety of industries. As of Q4 2018, ‘Enterprise’ now accounts for over a third of the Company’s run-rate sales, a figure we expect to increase significantly in the coming years.
Within the Enterprise business, the Real Estate Advisory Team sits at the intersection of Sales, Finance, and Real Estate and is tasked with identifying and scaling new business opportunities that will drive the strategic agenda of the Global Enterprise business. In tandem with our Global Account Executives, REA team members will be primarily focused on executing high impact real estate transactions across our largest and fastest-growing Enterprise accounts.
Directors on REA will be responsible for business development, the creation and codification of new deal structures and products, and the execution of large-scale transactions. They will ultimately drive the development and direction of the Enterprise business' long-term vision and strategy.
