What You'll Do
Lead the development of detailed occupancy strategies that align with organizational growth and operational needs.

Coordinate move logistics for teams of varying sizes, working closely with facilities, project management, and external partners. Adjust plans dynamically in response to business shifts like mergers or reorganizations. Support change management by leading planning sessions, move meetings, and site-wide communications.
Generate reports on space utilization trends, including hiring patterns, vacancy rates, and forecast performance. Present findings to internal teams and clients using clear, data-driven insights. Recommend improvements to planning processes that enhance accuracy, reduce costs, and improve service delivery.
