• Serve as escalation point for complex diligence findings, structure issues, and closing risks; ensure appropriate documentation, decisioning, and resolution.

• Own the transaction management operating cadence (deal dashboards, critical path tracking, stakeholder updates) to drive transparency and speed.

Cross-Functional Stakeholder Management

• Act as a primary connector across Investments, Debt Capital Markets, Portfolio Strategy, Capex, Asset Management, Risk, Tax, Accounting, Legal, operating partners, and outside counsel to ensure coordinated execution.

• Lead cross-functional working sessions and diligence tours; ensure the right information reaches the right decision-makers at the right time.

• Maintain strong external relationships with sellers, buyers, brokers, and third-party vendors to support efficient, professional execution.

• 10+ years of relevant real estate experience with a strong concentration in multifamily transactions (acquisitions/dispositions; investment banking, principal investing, asset management, or similar).

• Proven track record leading teams of 4-6 and delivering outcomes through others (not just individual execution).
