Hybrid or remote model depending on location
This is a strategic real estate management position, not a facilities management or commercial office-only role. Our candidate will have substantial experience managing industrial assets - manufacturing facilities, laboratories, warehouses, or utilities infrastructure.

This strategic position offers the opportunity to shape our European real estate portfolio while working with regional leadership. The role involves comprehensive management of our property portfolio, including lease administration, transaction management, and strategic site development. Working directly with the Global Director of Real Estate, you will have the autonomy to drive initiatives that create significant business impact.
