Tips for Your Vice President of Leasing Job Search
Quantify your leasing portfolio performance
Your resume should show occupancy rates you drove, deal volume you closed, and revenue generated under your leadership. Hiring committees for vice president of leasing roles want numbers that prove you can move a portfolio, not just manage one.
Highlight asset class depth on applications
Employers distinguish sharply between multifamily, industrial, retail, and office leasing experience. Name the specific asset classes you've led deals in and the property sizes involved, so hiring managers can match your background to their portfolio instantly.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists vice president of leasing openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Tailor language to ownership structure
REITs, private equity-backed owners, and family-owned operators each use different terminology and prioritize different metrics. Mirror the ownership structure's vocabulary in your cover letter to signal you already understand how they evaluate performance.
Prepare deal storytelling for panel interviews
VP-level leasing interviews often include a panel from acquisitions, finance, and operations. Prepare two or three detailed deal narratives that show cross-functional impact, not just occupancy outcomes, so each stakeholder hears something directly relevant to their function.
Negotiate comp against market benchmarks
VP of leasing offers frequently include base, bonus, and commission or override structures tied to portfolio performance. Research comparable offer structures through industry associations and professional networking sites before entering final negotiations so you can respond to any component specifically.
