  • Administer contracts for development and construction agreements
  • Manage corporate governance, entity formation, and annual compliance filings
  • Review title commitments, surveys, and related due diligence materials, and coordinate platting and easement matters
  • Partner closely with the Chief Legal Officer and collaborate regularly with Leasing, Development/Construction, Property Management, and Accounting/Finance

What we're looking for:

  • At least 10 years of progressively responsible experience in commercial real estate as a senior paralegal, lease administrator, or similar professional
  • Strong background in leasing, loan closings, title/survey work, and corporate governance
  • Notary commission, or willingness to obtain one promptly
  • In-house experience with a developer, owner, or property management company preferred
