Work with Sales, Product and other key stakeholders to manage and optimize rent and lease reviews with a focus on tracking to the asset’s planned performance or implementing an improvement plan to get the asset back on track. This may include understanding the asset’s client mix, calculating the margin expected from current leases, and communicating the impact of leasing decisions (inducements, base price, annual hikes, duration). Through collaboration with the technical asset management and other key stakeholders develop an Asset Book (Building Management Plan) with dimensions such as asset age, square footage details, high‐level equipment overview, expected TCO, and targeted asset strategy considering the client mix. Provide data‐driven recommendations based on best‐practice studies (internal and external) in asset operations and drive the implementation of them to all other relevant assets.
