Real Estate Facilities & Maintenance Business Senior Analyst

Senior Business Analyst

The Senior Business Analyst supports the Real Estate Facilities & Maintenance (REFM) organization by turning complex operational and facilities data into clear, actionable insights for business and executive leaders.

This role is not a dashboard builder, but a strategic analytics and communication partner. The Senior Business Analyst understands how dashboards and data are built, interprets results, identifies trends and risks, and translates insights into compelling stories that influence decisions across departments.

The role requires a self-starter who detects nuances easily, anticipates leadership questions, and is comfortable presenting findings to senior leaders. Success in this role comes from strong judgment, executive-ready communication, and the ability to work independently in a fast-moving, cross-functional environment.

The Senior Business Analyst reports to the Manager of Real Estate Strategy & Reporting and plays a visible role in how facilities performance and investment decisions are understood across the organization.
