• Recommend commercial real estate options aligned with their business objectives.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for someone who is hungry to build, not just maintain.

You may be a good fit if you are:

• Experienced in commercial real estate leasing, brokerage, business development, sales, or account management.
• A confident communicator who enjoys talking to business owners and senior decision-makers.
• Comfortable presenting, negotiating, and influencing clients.
• Highly proactive—you don't wait for opportunities; you create them.
• Entrepreneurial and comfortable working in an environment where not everything is already established.
• Resilient and willing to take on challenges, rejection, and difficult negotiations.
• Strategic enough to understand the client's business, but hands‑on enough to pursue the actual deal.
• Passionate about building relationships and developing a strong professional network.
• Willing to be on the ground, meet clients, conduct site visits, and explore the Cebu market.
• Someone who wants to grow into a bigger leadership role as the Cebu business grows.

Your Success in This Role Will Look Like

In your first year, you will be expected to:

• Build a strong network of clients, property owners, and business partners in Cebu.
• Establish a consistent leasing pipeline.
• Close quality leasing transactions.
• Develop long‑term relationships with business owners and corporate clients.
• Help establish the company's presence and reputation in the Cebu market.
• Contribute to building and developing the Cebu leasing team.
• Become a trusted commercial real estate partner for companies expanding into or within Cebu.

Why This Role Is Different

This is an opportunity for someone who wants to be part of building a business—not simply filling a position.

You will have the opportunity to pioneer the Cebu market, build your own network, work directly with executives and business owners, influence business decisions, close meaningful transactions, and eventually help lead the team you helped build.

If you are looking for a role where you can make an impact, create opportunities, and grow with the business, we want to hear from you.
