Overview of the Role

The Real Estate Strategy and Planning team shapes how Salesforce's global office portfolio evolves: where we grow, where we consolidate, and how our footprint supports the business. As Senior Analyst, you will be the team's analytical engine. You'll turn portfolio, workforce, occupancy and market data into insights that drive metro and country portfolio strategies. Using AI tools and modern analytics platforms, you'll build dashboards, scenarios and interactive materials that help leaders make faster, better-informed real estate decisions. You'll partner closely with Strategic Finance, Transactions, Business Partners and other REWS teams.

Core Responsibilities & Scope

• Data analysis: Analyze portfolio, lease, headcount, hiring forecast, occupancy and utilization data to identify trends, risks and opportunities.
• Metro strategy: Build the fact base for key metros (footprint, demand forecasts, utilization, lease expirations and market conditions) and help develop options to consolidate, expand, relocate or hold.
• Country portfolio strategy: Support country-level strategies with footprint benchmarks, cost and occupancy profiles, and long-range planning inputs.
• Supply and demand planning: Model real estate supply vs. demand, track critical dates and space requirements, and flag gaps or surplus early.
• Scenario analysis: Build and run portfolio scenarios, and provide data inputs to Strategic Finance for financial modeling and to Transactions for deal planning.
• Dashboards and metrics: Build and maintain dashboards and interactive tools covering portfolio KPIs (cost per seat, cost per sq ft, utilization, occupancy), making sure metrics fit the reporting objective.
• AI-enabled analysis: Use AI tools and platforms to automate data analysis, surface occupancy and utilization trends faster, and speed up scenario and presentation work.
• Market intelligence: Use third-party real estate and occupancy data platforms to gather market, benchmark and competitive insights.
• Presentation materials: Turn analysis into clear, exec-ready decks, summaries and interactive materials, and support project approval requests with proper documentation.
• Ad-hoc decision support: Respond quickly and accurately to analysis requests from leadership and partners.

Minimum Requirements

• 3–5 years of experience in real estate strategy, analytics, consulting, FP&A or a related field
• Strong analytical and data skills, including advanced Excel and hands-on use of BI and AI tools to automate analysis and build dashboards
• Experience supporting scenario analysis and business modeling for strategic decisions
• Strong PowerPoint and storytelling skills, and the ability to turn data into a clear point of view for senior audiences
• High attention to detail, organization and data accuracy while managing competing priorities
• Proactive self-starter who adapts to shifting priorities and works well across teams
• Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Economics, Real Estate, Data Analytics or related field

Preferred Qualifications

• Corporate real estate or workplace planning experience (leases, occupancy, space and headcount planning)
• Experience with third-party real estate and occupancy data platforms (e.g., CoStar, Serraview, utilization and badge analytics tools)
• SQL or other data tools, and experience building interactive or AI-powered tools
• Experience with multi-country or global portfolios
• Familiarity with Salesforce products such as Tableau and Slack

In this role, you'll gain broad exposure to global portfolio strategy, executive decision-making and the use of AI in corporate real estate planning.
