In the CapMan Real Estate team, we execute both value-add and stable income-focused investment strategies across all major property sectors in Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Norway. Our active value-add funds seek to acquire transitional properties in the most liquid Nordic markets where an asset can be enhanced by active rental and cost management, investments in redevelopment, change of use, or repositioning. Our funds and mandates targeting stable income generation seek well-located, high-quality investments that generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our investors across market cycles. Our Nordic Real Estate operations include over 70 committed real estate investment professionals, and our real estate funds hold approximately 55 assets comprising 224 individual properties. 

At CapMan Real Estate's Helsinki office, we currently have 25 colleagues working.

The start date will be agreed upon together with the chosen candidate. 

Main areas of responsibility

As a Residential Leasing Coordinator, you will collaborate with asset managers to implement leasing strategies that achieve our targets for rental income and occupancy rates. You will work closely with external stakeholders, especially with our Property Management partners, to ensure that their daily operations in both leasing and property management are running smoothly.   

Your responsibilities more specifically:

• Operating with external partners: You will regularly meet with our external partners’ operational teams and ensure that leasing processes as well as property management meet agreed-upon standards. E.g. you do regular property inspections and follow and react to tenant satisfaction surveys and feedback.  

• Planning residential marketing: You will follow the market trends and participate in planning portfolio- and property-level marketing actions in collaboration with CapMan's Residential team, as well as implementing pricing strategies considering overall demand. 

• Portfolio budgeting: You will participate in annual portfolio budgeting in cooperation with external partners and CapMan´s team. As a part of the budgeting process, you will create ideas how to improve the apartments within reasonable costs.
