A fast-growing data center real estate platform is appointing a Vice President of Leasing to lead leasing strategy and execution across a high-quality portfolio. This is a senior, commercially led leadership role for an operator who can build demand, shape go-to-market strategy, and close complex, high-value transactions with hyperscalers, cloud, enterprise, and channel partners.

You will own the revenue-driving leasing agenda-partnering closely with executive leadership and internal stakeholders across development, finance, legal, operations, and delivery-while building and sustaining senior relationships across the data center ecosystem.

Key responsibilities

Build and manage a high-performing pipeline with hyperscalers, enterprise customers, and key intermediaries (brokers, advisors, and channel partners)

Define and refine commercial positioning: product strategy, pricing frameworks, incentive structures, and competitive differentiation by market and asset

Partner with internal delivery teams to align customer requirements with capacity, power, expansion pathways, and service levels

Provide accurate forecasting and reporting to leadership: pipeline health, conversion, timeline-to-close, and revenue impact

Represent the business externally at industry events and in strategic customer meetings, acting as a senior face of the platform

What we're looking for

Proven experience leading data center leasing or commercial deal-making within colocation / wholesale / powered shell environments

Track record of closing complex, multi-year leasing transactions with sophisticated counterparties

Strong commercial judgement across pricing, capacity constructs, and risk (credit, term, escalation, deliverability)
