We are committed to hiring the best, most talented peopleand empowering them tothrive, 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.

What this job involves:

We are seeking a Sr. Research Manager to lead and execute the Analytics, Research, and Mapping (ARM) program within Amazon's Global Real Estate & Facilities (GREF) organization.

You will create executive-level insights and recommendations while delivering the analytical deliverables that underpin data-driven decision-making. This dual mandate requires executive presence and technical proficiency: someone equally comfortable presenting to C-suite leaders as they are building data visualizations, working in Excel, and leveraging internal AI tools.

  • Produce analytical and mapping deliverables (commute studies, portfolio maps, demographic analyses, site-level research) to support portfolio strategy and transactions
  • Lead production of pre-defined and ad hoc research requests, ensuring consistent quality and timeliness across multiple stakeholders
  • Proactively leverage AI tools, automation, and emerging technologies to maximize efficiency and streamline repetitive tasks
  • Communicate insights via traditional reporting and advanced data visualization tools, including JLL's proprietary technologies and GIS platforms (MapIT, ArcGIS, or similar)
  • Coordinate across internal and external stakeholders to manage research intake, prioritization, and delivery timelines
Required Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in business, economics, urban planning, real estate, or related field
  • 7+ years in commercial real estate research, consulting, or closely related field; industrial or office sector experience strongly preferred
  • Proven ability to operate as both strategic leader and hands-on producer and own the full lifecycle from executive presentation through deliverable production
  • Strong analytical and quantitative skillset with a data excellence mindset; ability to synthesize complex information into actionable insights
  • Dynamic presentation skills and executive presence; experienced engaging senior leaders with insight-driven content
  • Proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint required
  • Command of commercial real estate fundamentals with the strategic orientation to translate knowledge into forward-looking recommendations
Preferred Qualifications:
  • GIS experience (MapIT, ArcGIS, or similar platforms)
  • Proven ability to work independently and manage competing priorities in a matrixed, geographically dispersed organization
  • Comfort leveraging AI tools, automation platforms, and emerging technologies to scale individual output
  • Experience maintaining deep knowledge of macro and micro factors affecting corporate real estate
  • Track record of building strong relationships across complex client organizations and internal networks
Location: Can be one of the following locations (flexible): Denver, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Arlington

At JLL, we are collectively shaping a brighter way - for our clients, ourselves and our fellow employees. We choose to take the more inspiring, innovative, and optimistic path on our journey toward success.
