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.
We're searching for a Senior Director to join JLL Consulting who gets energised by complex problems and loves the moment when everything clicks into place. If you're someone who can see the forest and the trees, and help others do the same while leading transformational outcomes for FTSE 250 and multinational clients, this could be your perfect fit.
What this job involves:
As Senior Director of JLL Consulting, you'll lead strategic consulting initiatives that drive transformational outcomes across diverse real estate portfolios. This role combines deep industry expertise with senior leadership to deliver innovative solutions in workplace strategy, portfolio optimisation, and real estate transformation. You'll partner with other consultants and the whole JLL business to help clients figure out their next big moves - acting as a translator who takes their ambitious goals and turns them into human-centric strategies that actually work in an evolving workplace.
What your day-to-day will look like:
Your typical day might include leading complex consulting engagements from inception through delivery while digging into data and research from all corners to solve puzzles that have been stumping smart people. You'll use your experience and instincts to spot patterns and connections others miss, developing and presenting executive-level strategic recommendations on workplace transformation, portfolio rationalisation, and facilities management strategies.
You'll be building and maintaining C-suite relationships with key clients, serving as a trusted advisor while pitching ideas that push organisations forward and create genuinely new solutions. A significant part of your role involves overseeing project teams where different perspectives aren't just welcomed - they're essential, providing mentorship, quality assurance, and career development guidance to consulting professionals.
Working directly with stakeholders, you'll develop strategies and deliver recommendations that clients can actually use, while driving business development activities including proposal development and client presentations across UK and EMEA markets. You'll collaborate with JLL service lines to create integrated solutions that leverage the full breadth of JLL's capabilities, representing JLL Consulting at industry conferences and thought leadership forums to enhance our market presence.
We'd love to hear from you if you have experience in:
Portfolio Strategy | Target Operating Models | Business & Location Advisory | FM Strategy | Change & Transformation | Workplace & People Strategy | AI Adoption | Real Estate Consulting | Management Consulting
Required Skills and Experience:
You'll need a qualification in Business, Real Estate, Finance, Economics, Auditing or related field, plus minimum 10 years of progressive experience in management consulting, real estate consulting, or corporate real estate leadership roles. We're looking for a proven track record of leading large-scale strategic initiatives with measurable business impact and demonstrated experience managing high-performing teams in professional services environments.
Strong financial acumen with experience in real estate valuation, portfolio analysis, and investment decision-making processes is essential, alongside exceptional communication and presentation skills with ability to influence senior executives and board-level stakeholders.
Technical Skills:
Advanced proficiency in financial modelling and analysis tools including Excel and PowerBI, familiarity with data visualisation tools like Tableau, understanding of GIS mapping software for portfolio optimisation, and experience with CRM platforms (Salesforce preferred). Professional certifications such as MRICS or RICS Fellowship are preferred but not required with demonstrated expertise.
Why we love working here:
Every client is different. Every project brings new challenges. And every solution you develop has the potential to change how businesses operate and shape how organisations think about their real estate assets. Plus, you'll be working with an eclectic team of people who actually care about getting it right, while building relationships built on truly listening to our clients' needs and really getting underneath the skin of organisations to challenge thinking and shape a brighter way.
