- Take ownership of the financial aspects related to retail development, from budgeting and forecasting to revenue optimization and ensuring profitability.
- Innovation and Differentiation: Drive innovation in retail design and customer experience, leveraging technology and trends to create a truly exceptional and immersive retail environment.
- Instructing, organizing and coordinating all development disciplines with the objective of harmonizing the diversified functions to deliver completed projects in accordance with the objectives established in the approved business plan.
- Compliance and Risk Management: Ensure adherence to legal, regulatory, and safety standards while proactively mitigating potential risks associated with the retail component.

- Substantial experience managing the real estate development process, from project initiation and acquisition to project structuring, design, construction, commission, and operation.

In return, you will be able to have direct oversight and responsibility for one of the world’s most exciting real estate projects.
