You will partner with deal teams, senior executives, boards, senior advisors, external operating partners, and other stakeholders to accelerate value creation and manage risk across our assets.

• Drive and oversee implementation of value‑creation initiatives with management teams and boards.
• Stress‑test and shape company strategies and operating models.
• Onboard and support assets throughout the lifecycle, including 100‑day plans; KPIs and targets setting; governance and monitoring frameworks; management incentives and assessments; and more.

• Lead cross‑portfolio initiatives and synergies in selected functional areas.
• When required, lead and coordinate specific value‑creation projects, including post‑merger integrations (bolt‑ons), refinancings, major contract renegotiations, management assessments, and exit preparation.
• Partner with senior leaders across CBRE to deliver strategic objectives.
• Support special projects, research, and initiatives related to portfolio investments.
• Mentor and develop less‑experienced colleagues.

• Proven track record of delivering measurable financial impact (e.g., yield generation, revenue growth, margin expansion, EBITDA improvement, balance sheet optimization).
• Highly numerate with strong technical analytical skills; able to structure ambiguous problems, drive pragmatic decisions and actions, and shift between detail and a “helicopter” view.
• Exceptional relationship‑building, senior‑stakeholder management, and influencing skills, with meaningful C‑suite and board exposure, especially in complex stakeholder environments.
• Rigorous prioritization skills.
• Team player who thrives in a collaborative, high‑performance culture.
• Applicants must be currently authorized to work in Canada without the need for visa sponsorship now or in the future.

• Experience developing and implementing 100‑day plans and performing ongoing business‑plan reviews.
• Experience evaluating and incentivizing management teams.
• Experience working in deal environments (e.g., due diligence, integration planning).
• Functional expertise in one or more: platform stand‑ups, governance, organization design and compensation, procurement, Office of the CFO, enterprise IT architecture, HSE, CAPEX, Digital and Analytics, sustainability integration.
