Leasing Executive

Role Overview:

This role sits at the intersection of leasing support, retailer management and Event Activations / Coordination at WestAM. The incumbent will serve as the point of coordination between the leasing team, prospective tenants, and active retailers, while also being a part of the activation calendar that drives footfall and dwell time across the asset.

This is a high-ownership, client-facing role suited to someone equally comfortable managing a commercial conversation.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Client Coordination & Leasing Support

● Manage end-to-end coordination with prospective tenants — from initial inquiry through site visits, LOI execution, and fit-out handover.

● Prepare and track leasing documentation including proposals, term sheets, and LOI status trackers.

● Maintain a live pipeline dashboard to the leasing lead proactively.

● Liaise with legal, design, and operations teams to ensure seamless onboarding for incoming tenants.

● Support scheduling and facilitation of brand presentations, site visits, and commercial discussions.

2. Retailer Engagement & Care

● Serve as the relationship custodian for prospective retailers from first contact through lease execution, ensuring a premium, white-glove experience at every touchpoint.

● Coordinate site familiarisation visits, brand briefings, and introductory walkthroughs for incoming retailers.

● Maintain regular communication with brands in the pipeline to sustain engagement momentum and pre-empt deal drop-offs.

● Gather and relay retailer requirements like space preferences, fit-out expectations, and adjacency considerations to the leasing lead for commercial structuring.

● Build rapport with brand decision-makers and regional heads to position WestAM as the preferred destination ahead of lease signing.

3. Event Activations & Experiential Programming

● Act as a coordinator to conceptualise and execute brand activations, pop-ups, and seasonal events aligned with WestAM's premium positioning.

● Coordinate with internal stakeholders and external vendors for end-to-end activation delivery.

● Manage activation proposals from brands seeking temporary space, evaluating fit against asset positioning.

● Track post-event metrics, footfall uplift, social reach, retailer co-participation and present learnings to the leadership team.

● Build a 12-month rolling activation calendar that supports leasing conversations and anchors the mall's lifestyle identity.

Candidate Profile:

● 1-3 years of experience in retail leasing coordination, luxury retail operations, or experiential marketing.

● Exposure to premium or lifestyle retail environments strongly preferred; Ahmedabad market familiarity is an advantage.

● Strong interpersonal skills — credibility with high-end brand representatives and maturity in managing landlord-tenant dynamics.

● Comfortable with documentation: leasing trackers, MOM drafting, activation briefs, and reporting decks.

● Proactive, self-directed, and capable of managing multiple workstreams simultaneously without hand-holding.

• ● Proficiency in MS Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint); familiarity with CRM or leasing management tools is a plus.
