Monday Properties is currently seeking a Director to lead the Acquisitions and Capital Transactions effort out of its Arlington, VA office. The primary responsibility of the position is the acquisition of office properties in the greater Washington, DC market, with the expectation that the Director's geographic coverage will broaden over time as the firm's investment footprint grows. The position reports to the Chief Investment Officer and will require close interaction and collaboration with the investment, asset management, accounting, leasing, and property management professionals of the company, as well as with the New York and Virginia teams.

Sourcing is central to this role. The Director is expected to originate opportunities across the full range of entry points available in today's office market: direct acquisitions from owners and investment sales channels; purchases of performing and non-performing notes; relationships with lenders, special servicers and workout groups carrying office exposure; and co-GP, recapitalization and rescue capital structures with sponsors whose existing capitalizations are under stress. The position also carries responsibility for sourcing and maintaining relationships with capital providers - LP equity, co-GP partners, debt funds, banks and private lenders - and for helping raise and structure the capital required to execute the transactions the Director originates.

The Director will be expected to take a hands-on leadership role throughout the investment process, including evaluating opportunities, leading underwriting and due diligence, developing transaction structures, coordinating internal and external resources, negotiating key business terms, and working with the CIO and senior leadership to secure the equity and debt capital required to execute transactions.
