On behalf of a highly regarded commercial property firm, we are seeking an exceptional leader to take on a newly established role created as part of a substantial long-term investment in growth. This individual will beat the very top of their game, with an outstanding track record in lease advisory and wider property transactions. The role will be instrumental in defining strategy, leading expansion initiatives, and shaping the future direction of the business.

This is not a replacement appointment or a traditional departmental leadership role. The successful individual will be given the platform, investment and senior-level support to build a market-leading Strategic Lease Management business. You will take ownership of the strategy, grow the retained client base, develop the service proposition and recruit a high-performing team around you. The ambition is for Strategic Lease Management to become one of the consultancy's principal business divisions.

Responsibilities

  • Developing and implementing a three-year growth strategy
  • Winning and developing relationships with major corporate occupiers
  • Growing a recurring, retained client base
  • Providing strategic advice across complex occupational portfolios
  • Identifying opportunities for portfolio optimisation and cost reduction
  • Enhancing the firm's existing Strategic Lease Management proposition
  • Recruiting, leading and developing a specialist team
  • Creating new service lines and commercial revenue opportunities
  • Establishing a recognised market profile through networking and thought leadership
  • Building predictable, long-term recurring fee income

Candidate Profile

  • Strong commercial and business development instincts
  • Strategic occupier-side property expertise
  • An entrepreneurial, business-building mindset
  • Credibility with senior property and finance decision-makers
  • The leadership capability to recruit and develop a team
  • A collaborative and low-ego approach
  • The ambition to create a significant and scalable advisory business

What You'll Be Able To

  • Build a division rather than inherit one
  • Define the strategy and operating model
  • Recruit your own team
  • Work directly with the senior leadership and Board
  • Develop an already proven retained-income proposition
  • Build long-term value for both clients and the wider business
  • Participate financially in the success you help generate

You will be supported by existing lease advisory, marketing, business development, finance, administration, technology and CRM resources. A dedicated recruitment budget will also be available in line with the agreed business plan.

Compensation and Benefits

  • Competitive Director-level base salary
  • Tiered commission linked to fee generation
  • Additional commission for personally introduced new business
  • Participation in an employee profit-sharing structure
  • Long-term incentive opportunities connected to business performance and profitability
