Descrizione del lavoro

Our client, 3CDC, is searching for a Director of Commercial Leasing to lead the strategy, growth, and execution of leasing efforts across one of the most impactful real estate portfolios in Cincinnati. This is not a traditional brokerage role. They are looking for someone who understands how to build neighborhoods, curate experiences, and bring the right businesses into the right spaces to create long-term community success.

This role will oversee leasing strategy for a diverse portfolio of retail, office, and restaurant spaces while leading a collaborative leasing team focused on occupancy growth, tenant retention, and long-term property performance.

• Develop and mentor the commercial leasing team while driving accountability and performance
• Build relationships throughout the Cincinnati business community, broker network, and entrepreneurial ecosystem
• Identify and secure new tenants through creative outreach and relationship building
• Negotiate lease terms, renewals, amendments, and expansions
• Analyze leasing performance, vacancy trends, and pipeline activity to improve portfolio performance
• Partner with marketing, development, construction, and property management teams to support successful tenant launches
• Help curate a strong tenant mix that supports long-term neighborhood success — not simply filling vacancies
• Represent the organization at networking events, community functions, and industry events

What They’re Looking For

• 5+ years of commercial leasing experience within office, retail, industrial, hospitality, or related sectors
• Strong negotiation skills and proven success closing complex deals
• Someone highly connected within the Cincinnati market who understands the local business landscape
• A relationship-driven professional who thrives in networking environments and can think strategically about placemaking and community impact
• Experience building teams, developing people, and influencing others
• Strong business acumen with the ability to analyze leasing trends, financials, and market opportunities
• Experience with CRM or property management systems preferred
• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Real Estate, Marketing, or a related field required
