Corporate Real Estate Team

Icon_Building.pngSpace Planner

Also known as an Occupancy Planner, Project Manager, or Workplace Service Lead.

Space Planners are high-level, forward-thinking Corporate Real Estate professionals, working to find accommodation solutions that meet the needs of both the business and the company's overall property strategy. They have a deep understanding of how the business works and the general distribution of divisions and teams across the company's portfolio.

Also known as a Space Data Manager or Data Manager.

Data Analysts are primarily concerned with keeping data up-to-date for the purposes of reporting and analysis. They often manage a company's space validation process and update space and allocation changes within Serraview.

Icon_Person.png Relationship Manager

Also known as a Client Manager or Project Manager.

Relationship Managers are the conduit between the Corporate Real Estate team and the business. Relationship Managers may look after a business division or a specific location and can either sit with Corporate Real Estate or with the teams or location they represent. Their primary goal is to understand the needs of the business and communicate this with the Corporate Real Estate team. Relationship Managers generally report to the Head of Commercial Workplace or a Head of Strategy.

Also known as a Business Unit Representative or Real Estate Liaison.

Workplace Administrators are people within the business who have their own roles and responsibilities (within that department) who are also chosen to keep the property and occupancy data up-to-date. These administrators are often the central point of contact for the Corporate Real Estate team. They can often be an Executive Assistant to the team or to the General Manager of the line of business - they do not report directly to anyone in Corporate Real Estate.
