The Work

  • Handle leasing matters, including preparing and negotiating lease documents and working directly with clients on their needs.
  • Contribute to general contracting matters, with responsibility for drafting and negotiating material agreements.
  • Interface directly with clients, helping advance matters and respond to transaction and contracting issues.
  • Support leasing, construction, and development matters involving hyperscaler data centers where relevant experience and assignments align.

Why Consider It
