Director of Asset Management

Topo brings a unique perspective to real estate drawing from our experiences founding and operating hospitality businesses.

We create uncommon spaces where thoughtful design produces meaningful impacts for our tenants, partners, and community while having fun along the way.

Our fully integrated team finds innovative real estate solutions for businesses seeking dynamic, attainable workspaces. We build relationships with best-in-class partners who share our passion for activating destinations and helping them thrive.

We are proud of what we have already accomplished and excited for the opportunities ahead.

As the Director of Asset Management, you will oversee and manage the real estate assets on behalf of the investor. You will act as the liaison between the investor and the other stakeholders involved in the real estate project, such as the developer (Topo), the property manager, the lender, the broker, and the tenant.

Your goal is to align the interests of the investor with the operational and financial performance of the real estate assets.

At Topo, Asset Management delivers value to investors through the lens of the Topo brand, culture and purpose primarily in horizontal mixed-use projects with retail, food and beverage and creative office as the focus.

Through your oversight, Topo delivers the quantitative outcomes that investors expect supported by the qualitative goals of Topo's purpose and the vision for the specific project.

You will oversee creating strategies and plans for the projects that provide long-term, sustainable results rather than a merchant-build model with an eye for a quick exit.

Be ready and excited to lead and scale the department. This role reports to the Principal over Asset Management, Operations, and Acquisitions.
