• Partner cross-functionally with teams in Asset Management, Finance, Legal, Property Operations, and Accounting to communicate valuation strategies and appeal outcomes.
• Maintain and enhance property tax databases and records.
• Research and analyze complex tax issues, identify key risks, and develop strategic recommendations. Handle moderately complex matters independently and collaborate on more intricate cases.

What You’ll Bring:

• Deep understanding of property tax principles and valuation methodologies.
• At least five years of experience in commercial property valuation or assessment—retail experience in a major metro area is a plus.
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Real Estate, Business, or a related discipline.
