Real Estate Manager Jobs in Michigan (NOW HIRING)

About

At 7 Brew, it’s more than coffee — it’s about creating energy, connection, and unforgettable experiences one cup at a time. As one of the fastest-growing drive-thru coffee concepts in America, we’re building something massive — and we’re looking for a Real Estate Manager to help drive that growth forward.

This opportunity is with a rapidly expanding multi-unit quick-service restaurant platform developing locations across Michigan, New York, and beyond. You will own a territory, hunt and close drive-thru sites, and be measured on executed deals — not activity. You report directly to our VP of Development and work alongside a dedicated outside development team that takes your signed deals through permitting and construction.

We are looking for driven, strategic, and execution-focused real estate professionals who thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

The Real Estate Manager will play a critical role in identifying, evaluating, and securing high-quality locations that support our aggressive expansion strategy. This role works closely with leadership, brokers, developers, landlords, and cross-functional teams to move deals from site selection through lease execution.

Role Responsibilities

Site Identification & Market Development

• Source and evaluate ~5 sites per month in your territory using our trade-area pin maps, drive-time analytics, broker network, and your own direct deal-making
• Run each deal through test fit, internal approval, and 7 Brew corporate approval on tight, published timelines
• Negotiate and execute LOIs and ground leases/PSAs — 20+ signed deals per year is the quota
• Maintain a live pipeline of 30+ active sites so opening plans are never constrained by site availability
• Keep every deal current in our development tracker and hand off clean, complete deal files to the development team

Success Metrics

Four KPIs, defined in writing on day one: signed deals per year (20+), pipeline depth (30+ active sites), gate velocity against published cycle-time goals, and deal quality against our deal-points checklist. We measure results, not activity.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary of $100K+ based on experience
• Performance bonus opportunities tied to development milestones and company growth
• Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Travel and mileage reimbursement
• Opportunity for career growth within a rapidly scaling organization

Ideal Candidate

• 3+ years in site acquisition / real estate development for QSR, drive-thru, fuel/convenience, or multi-unit retail — you have personally sourced and closed deals
• A working broker network in Michigan, Ohio, or Western New York (or the ability to build one fast)
• Fluency in LOIs, ground leases, purchase agreements, title, and entitlement basics — you know what kills a drive-thru deal (setbacks, stacking, curb cuts) before the lawyers do
• Comfortable being measured weekly on a number, and hungry to be paid on it
• Willingness to travel your territory regularly; valid driver’s license
• Self-starter mindset with strong attention to detail and follow-through
• Ability to travel as needed for site visits and market development
• Passionate about growth, development, and being part of a high-performance team
