Commercial Real Estate is our sweet spot.Uncovering exceptional talent is our specialty.
AVID EXEC conducts search and recruitment across all levels in five core areas. Commercial Real Estate is our deepest specialization, supported by Engineering, Finance & Accounting, Corporate/Professional Leadership, and Not-for-Profit & Association work.
Our expertise doesn't stop at the property line
Commercial and multi-family real estate is our sweet spot, with deep experience across leadership, asset management, investment, lending, leasing, property management, specialized administration, project coordination and management, land development, finance and specialized accounting.
But our expertise reaches well beyond it. AVID also searches across Engineering, Finance & Accounting, Corporate/Professional Leadership, and Not-for-Profit & Association environments — and across all organizational levels.
Because every business is interdependent. The right talent, wherever it sits, can strengthen the people, performance and results around it.
Commercial and multi-family real estate roles in detail →Property Management
From emerging professionals through Directors and Vice Presidents, AVID searches across commercial, mixed-use, office, retail and multi-family portfolios.
That includes property administrators, coordinators, property managers, senior property managers, Directors and Vice Presidents — people who understand that strong property management is about more than keeping the building running. It is about tenant experience, operating performance, risk, service, capital planning, team leadership and protecting the long-term value of the asset.
Leasing & Brokerage
AVID searches across leasing, brokerage and advisory functions, including leasing professionals, commercial brokers, associate brokers, Directors and Vice Presidents.
Our work spans landlord representation, tenant advisory, investment sales and leasing strategy — roles where market knowledge, relationships, judgment and the ability to create opportunity matter.
Development, Land & Project Management
We search for the people who help move projects from idea to execution.
That includes land development professionals, project coordinators, project managers, construction managers, development managers, Directors and Vice Presidents.
These are professionals who know how to bring together land, approvals, consultants, contractors, budgets, timelines and stakeholders — and keep the work moving when complexity shows up.
Asset Management & Investment
AVID searches for asset managers, portfolio leaders, investment professionals, Directors and Vice Presidents responsible for understanding how real estate performs and where value can be created.
That includes portfolio strategy, capital planning, acquisitions, dispositions, investment analysis, partner relationships and asset-level decision-making.
The strongest people in these roles can see both the numbers and the property behind them.
Real Estate Finance, Accounting & Lending
Real estate needs financial talent that understands the asset, not just the spreadsheet.
AVID searches across property accounting, corporate accounting, controllership, finance, underwriting, lending and capital strategy — from property accountants and controllers through Directors and Vice Presidents of Finance, Accounting, Investment and Lending.
We look for people who can bring clarity to performance, support good decisions and understand how capital, risk and operations intersect.
Operations & Building Services
Behind every strong portfolio is a team keeping the physical asset safe, efficient and functioning well.
AVID searches across building operations, facilities, maintenance, technical services and operational leadership — including operations managers, maintenance and facilities leaders, Directors and Vice Presidents.
These roles are critical to tenant experience, risk management, lifecycle planning, service quality and protecting the value of the property.
Specialized Administration & Corporate Support
Some of the most important roles in real estate are the ones that keep everything connected.
AVID searches for specialized administrative, coordination and corporate support talent across property, leasing, development, accounting, operations and executive environments — from coordinators and administrators through Managers, Directors and Vice Presidents.
These are often the people who hold the detail, keep momentum moving and make the work around them better.
Leadership Across the Real Estate Business
AVID also searches for senior and executive leaders who bring several of these disciplines together.
That may include Directors, Vice Presidents, Managing Directors, Presidents and other senior leaders responsible for portfolios, teams, growth, operations, investment or organizational performance.
At that level, proven value creation and technical experience matter — but so do judgment, emotional intelligence, influence and the ability to lead through complexity.
