Director of Contracts & Lease Administration | Deerfield Beach, FL

StevenDouglas is working with a premier commercial real estate company developing and managing shopping centers across Florida, North Carolina, and Ohio to hire a Director of Contracts & Lease Administration to join its legal team on-site in Deerfield Beach.

This is a senior, hands-on individual contributor role reporting to the Chief Legal Officer, taking over a well-established function from a longtime paralegal transitioning toward retirement, with a knowledge transfer period built in.

  • Negotiate small-shop leases and ancillary documents within established company parameters
  • Oversee tenant improvement allowance review, approval, and disbursement
  • Support acquisitions, dispositions, and construction loan closings from due diligence through post-closing
  • 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
  • Familiarity with retail shopping centers and Florida/North Carolina real estate practices a plus

On-site in Deerfield Beach, five days a week.
