JLL empowers you to shape a brighter way.

Our people at JLL and JLL Technologies are shaping the future of real estate for a better world by combining world class services, advisory and technology for our clients. We are committed to hiring the best, most talented people and empowering them to thrive, grow meaningful careers and to find a place where they belong. Whether you've got deep experience in commercial real estate, skilled trades or technology, or you're looking to apply your relevant experience to a new industry, join our team as we help shape a brighter way forward.

As Senior Occupancy Planner, you will be responsible for providing strategic occupancy planning expertise, leveraging a deep understanding of our client's space supply and demand to develop scenario and occupancy plans for our client's portfolio in a designated region.

Fostering relationships

You'll foster critical relationships between various individuals and organizations, including:

Corporate Real Estate to review and resolve planning forecast requirements, concerns, and issues,

Business Unit leadership to collect headcount forecasts and resolve headcount forecast discrepancies between their numbers and those collected at the group level,

Corporate Finance group to gather top-down headcount and growth projections,

Project management to review planning strategies that drive construction projects and support the implementation of these projects,

Move coordination and facility management teams to review and approve moves, develop migration plans, and conduct facility audits, and

Other members of the occupancy planning team to ensure the development of portfolio strategy plans across separate locations.

Driving optimal occupancy planning solutions

Your primary focus areas for this role will be managing the development of occupancy plans, sequencing group-level and individual moves, and resolving planning issues identified during client planning sessions. You will ensure the alignment of planning with corporate guidelines and that all scenarios maximize the use of space. You will recommend, educate, and enforce space policies/standards, procedures, and protocols, notify the client of customer-requested exceptions, and, as necessary, assist in developing site-specific Planning Strategies with Senior Leadership. You will be a Subject Matter Expert in the client's workplace programs and in using data to drive solutions that increase productivity. You will be a leader in the Occupancy Planning and account team, modelling superior client relationship management and strategic thinking.

Reporting

One of your major requirements will be to get familiar with space utilization methods and the presentation of utilization data. Interacting with organizational leadership, you will identify space requirements and prepare and update project status reports on actual versus projected seat demand at the building level. In addition, you will report on current supply and capacity, forecast inventory changes as required, and work with the client to reconcile any discrepancies from top-down projections.

Asking the right questions to understand our clients' underlying needs will help you be effective in your role.

In addition, proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite the ability to consolidate data and floor plans into PowerPoint Presentations, and experience with CAFM / IWMS software will be highly valuable.

An individual with strong interpersonal skills, the ability to understand complex ideas and communicate them to others, and the ability to interact with executive-level external and internal clients will be successful in the role. Most importantly, it would help if you look forward to working as part of a diverse, supportive, and talented team.

Dynamic

Thinking strategically, simplifying the complex, seeing the big picture, and driving results are a few of the role's basic requirements. Moreover, you should thrive on change and have an appetite for risks. We would love your intellectual curiosity toward digital drive, hunger for learning, and urge to meet deadlines.
