• Support ASC 842, IFRS 16, and SOX compliance, including internal and external audit requests, documentation, and data validation.

• Prepare and distribute recurring and ad hoc reports, KPI dashboards, critical-date trackers, and briefing materials for internal stakeholders and leadership.

• Serve as a primary point of contact for landlord and broker relationships, including escalations and issue resolution.

• Build strong relationships with Accounting, Finance, Operations, Tax, and Legal to ensure timely and accurate lease information.

• Train, mentor, and provide quality oversight for Lease Analysts.

• Drive continuous improvement across lease administration workflows, reporting, controls, and system utilization.

• Serve as backup to the Lease Administration Manager during absences, including approvals, escalations, and time-sensitive decisions.

• Support Tax with VAT recovery activities as needed by region.

Who You Are

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, Real Estate, or a related field.

• 5+ years of commercial real estate lease administration experience, preferably supporting data centers or other complex infrastructure portfolios.

• Strong understanding of ASC 842 / IRFS 16 and lease accounting principles.

• Demonstrated experience reviewing, interpreting, and administering complex commercial lease agreements and amendments.

• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail, with experience identifying discrepancies and resolving complex lease or billing issues.

• Ability to manage multiple priorities and critical deadlines in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively across Finance, Accounting, Operations, Legal, and external partners.

Preferred:

• Experience with CoStar or a similar lease administration platform.

• Experience with Asana and Google Workspace.

• Familiarity with SOX controls and IFRS 16.

• Data center or infrastructure-related lease administration experience.
