• Develop advanced financial models, cash flow analyses, and investment appraisals using Microsoft Excel and other analytical tools.
• Prepare and deliver investment memoranda, pitch presentations, and transaction documentation reflecting JLL’s highest standards of quality and precision.
• Manage data rooms, transaction infrastructure, and departmental databases, ensuring accuracy, confidentiality, and compliance.
• Maintain deal trackers and CRM (Capforce) systems to monitor capital flows and market activity.
• Collaborate closely with Research, Valuation, Advisory, and other JLL service lines to enrich client outputs and enhance cross‑functional delivery.
• Engage directly with investor clients through meetings, calls, and written communications to present opportunities and insights.
• Identify and refer cross‑selling and partnership opportunities across JLL’s Middle East and Global network.
• Contribute to thought leadership initiatives, market commentary, and internal development programs that elevate JLL’s brand and team profile.
• Adopt and champion technology‑led approaches, incorporating AI tools and JLL’s tech stack to streamline workflows, boost efficiency, and drive analytical innovation.
• Perform additional project‑based assignments as directed by senior management.

Required Skills and Experience

• 2–4 years of relevant professional experience in real estate investment advisory, capital markets, or corporate finance.
• Strong academic credentials in Finance, Economics, Business, Real Estate, or a related discipline.
• Exceptional financial modeling, analytical, and quantitative skills, with advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint.
• Outstanding communication and presentation skills, combining clarity, professionalism, and strategic insight.
• Fluency in English is essential; Arabic language skills are strongly preferred.
• Excellent team player with a proactive and resourceful approach to collaboration and project ownership.
• Highly organized, detail‑oriented, and capable of thriving in a fast‑paced, client‑centric environment.
• Sound understanding of UAE and GCC real estate investment markets, with interest in regional macro trends and cross‑border capital flows.
• Existing professional network within the investment or advisory community is desirable.
