The Opportunity
As a Leasing Manager, you will play a pivotal role in driving sales and revenue growth across a cluster of WeWork buildings.

Build and manage a healthy pipeline of potential new members using data-driven insights.
Structure deals that optimise revenue outcomes while aligning with WeWork’s broader business objectives.
Market and Product Expertise:
Become an expert in your assigned buildings and local sub-market—understanding pricing dynamics, nearby competitors, local trends, and customer needs.
Demonstrate deep knowledge of WeWork’s product offering, physical space, and platform value proposition.
Leverage Salesforce and internal systems to produce reports, manage opportunities, and support market analysis
Relationship Building:
Build strong, trust-based relationships with prospective and renewing members, understanding their business and creating tailored workspace solutions.
Act as a collaborative partner to internal stakeholders—including Community, Building Operations, and Development teams—to ensure a seamless member experience.
Actively contribute to a culture of feedback, mentorship, and knowledge-sharing with other team members.
