What This Job Involves
Overview:
JLL holds a contract wherein JLL acts as the exclusive real estate services provider on behalf of the client. As a Transaction Analyst in the Washington DC office, you would be working on this client team in a support role. Specifically, you'd be a part of the group dedicated solely to the renewal of existing USPS facility leases in the eastern half of the US.
Our team deals with an extraordinarily high volume of transactions on behalf of the client, so to be involved with this team is to be involved with a monumental transaction management account, the size of which (in terms of number of sites in the portfolio) is largely unmatched across the commercial real estate industry.
The team is split into two groups - Transaction Managers (TMs) and Transaction Analysts (TAs). The most prominent difference between the two roles is that the TMs are charged with the task of engaging the landlord and negotiating the lease transaction on behalf of the client. The TAs assist and serve as a support system to the TMs. From an organizational standpoint, you will report directly to the Hiring Manager, while simultaneously taking daily direction from and serving as a support system to your assigned TM. The TA works in an operational and administrative support capacity to proactively, meticulously, and efficiently execute a plethora of processes that must be run in order to execute lease transactions on behalf of the client. The nature of this work can be repetitive and seemingly mundane. Our team prides itself on being able to straddle this type of work as we provide an invaluable service to a monumental client who provides an integral service to our society every day. A comfort with this type of work and an ability to keep one's "eye on the prize" is championed amongst the team and will be expected of any suitable candidate for the role.
Regular office hours are expected with this role with very few remote work opportunities.

Data entry, data validation, and data organizationGeneral administrative and operational supportAbstraction, analysis, and interpretation of commercial lease documentsDrafting of commercial lease documents with direction/oversight of your assigned TMOccasional interaction with the client and landlordProactively and preemptively identify opportunities to improve processes and increase efficiencyProactively and preemptively work to reduce errors and mistakes
