Key Responsibilities

Implement and champion robust program management methodologies and best practices for tenant improvement projects, ensuring consistency, efficiency, and adherence to global governance standards.
Drive accountability for project performance, ensuring individual projects within your assigned program adhere to scope, budget, schedule, and quality requirements.
Lead the selection, negotiation, and management of regional vendors, general contractors, architects, and consultants, fostering strong partnerships and ensuring optimal performance within the EMEA market.
Proactively identify, assess, and mitigate program-level risks specific to tenant improvement projects in EMEA, including local regulations, market fluctuations, and operational challenges.
Capital Planning & Financial Stewardship
Play a key role in the annual and multi-year capital planning process for EMEA tenant improvement projects, providing crucial regional insights, project forecasts, and budget recommendations to the Director, Global Workplace Design & Construction.
Manage and optimize regional program budgets, including detailed forecasting, expenditure tracking, cost control, and identifying value engineering opportunities across your assigned portfolio.
Monitor individual project expenditures and overall program financial performance, providing accurate, timely, and insightful reporting to the Director and relevant stakeholders.
Ensure adherence to financial controls and procurement policies for all capital project expenditures.
Strategic Stakeholder & Partnership Management
Serve as a primary point of contact and strategic partner for regional and global internal stakeholders (e.g., Real Estate & Facilities, IT, HR, Legal, Security, local business leadership) and external partners across EMEA.
Facilitate clear, consistent, and proactive communication regarding program status, risks, milestones, and financial performance to all relevant stakeholders, including contributing to executive-level reporting.
Collaborate with internal design teams and external consultants to ensure that tenant improvement projects align with global design philosophy, aesthetics, and established design standards and guidelines.
Support change management initiatives related to new office spaces and significant tenant improvements, ensuring smooth transitions for employees.
Continuous Improvement & Compliance
Contribute to the continuous improvement of capital project delivery processes and tools, sharing best practices and lessons learned from the EMEA region.
Ensure all tenant improvement projects are delivered in strict compliance with relevant local EMEA regulations, building codes, environmental standards, and company policies.
To be successful in this role you have:
Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Architecture, Engineering, Facilities Management, or a related field.
A Master's degree or relevant advanced certification is a plus.
PMP (Project Management Professional) certification or other equivalent certifications (e.g., PgMP, RICS, APM) are highly preferred.
10+ years of progressive experience in program or senior project management, with a minimum of 7 years specifically managing large-scale capital projects (>$1M, preferably >$5M per project) focused on tenant improvements and office fit-outs in a corporate real estate setting.

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, capable of building strong relationships and presenting complex information clearly and concisely to senior leadership.
