More Good Reasons

Strategic impact
Our department is the sole entity responsible for reviewing lease documents, so your impact will be noticed. You'll play a key role on a small team and your interaction with many internal departments throughout the organization will provide excellent exposure and visibility. If you're the person we're looking for, you enjoy rising to a challenge and going above and beyond what is required of you.

Professional development
While you'll need strong analytical and interpersonal skills walking through the door, you can expect to enhance it with what you learn in this role. For example, if you don't already have global experience, you'll acquire it. We are committed to helping our people grow professionally, including providing training opportunities.

Build a career home
If you are a driven professional, this is an ideal opportunity to establish your career and flourish within a dynamic industry leader. As this team continues to grow, we may be looking for proven performers to step up.

Growth without limits
We merged with DuPont Fabros Technology (DFT), effective in September 2017, accelerating our commitment to provide the most comprehensive set of data center solutions and expertise in the market. We now are able to support deployments ranging from single-cabinet colocation and interconnection to multi-megawatt to hyperscale. The combined company has an equity market cap of approximately $27 billion, and a total enterprise value of over $35 billion. According to industry analysts, the combined company will be the largest wholesale data-center REIT in the US.

Entrepreneurial culture
We value collaboration and encourage innovation, and the organization is committed to providing employees the tools they need to excel and develop professionally.

Excellent compensation
In addition to a competitive salary and discretionary bonus potential, we offer a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental and vision plans; flexible spending plans for multiple purposes; a health savings account; a 401(k) plan with company match, and much more.

Through our seamless, interconnected global network we offer more open data center service choices than anyone, including choices around vendors, service partners, network carriers, configurations and locations.

Keys to Success

The Lease Administration team works diligently and we take pride in meeting deadlines and delivering quality work on a consistent basis. We enjoy the work and get along well, in part because everyone brings a professional approach. We take breaks to share jokes and catch up on one another's outside interests, but for the most part, when we are at work, we focus in and get the job done.

While analytical skills and accuracy are essential, you'll also need the critical thinking skills to infer information that may not be explicitly stated. In your reports, rather than abstracting every detail, you'll interpret key points of each lease. As this information is used by different groups to make business decisions, you'll need to develop an understanding of what is important to each group.

This is a fast-paced environment where things move quickly; for example, during quarter's end priorities can change on short notice and the pressure can be high. You'll leverage your strong prioritization and multi-tasking skills -- and your ability to keep a cool head -- to contribute to team success during our busier times.

Additionally, to be an outstanding Lease Analyst you will have excellent communication, interpersonal and relationship building skills as you partner with the majority of Digital Realty's internal departments and leadership -- both domestically and abroad.
