About this job

<p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>About SINGU</strong></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><p style="min-height:1.5em">At <strong>SINGU</strong>, we’re redefining how the world’s most ambitious real estate companies run their operations. Our mission is to become <strong>Europe’s leading platform </strong>for managing warehouse, logistics, retail, and multi-site commercial real estate portfolios — empowering our Clients to protect revenue, boost efficiency, and unlock new value across every aspect of their business.</p><div style="min-height:1.2em;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </div><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Our unified CAFM platform</strong> already powers the daily operations of <strong>over 250 million m² of real estate worldwide</strong>, supporting more than <strong>500,000 professionals.</strong> Following our union with the UK’s <strong>Micad</strong> and Germany’s <strong>net-haus,</strong> we now help manage <strong>100,000+ buildings</strong> across <strong>35+ countries</strong> — and we’re just getting started.</p><div style="min-height:1.2em;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </div><p style="min-height:1.5em">Backed by a leading growth equity investor, we’re scaling rapidly and partnering with global leaders such as<strong> Prologis, ECE, CTP, Hillwood,</strong> <strong>Logicor, GLP, and Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield.</strong> As we continue to grow through strategic acquisitions and bold innovation, we stay true to our core values: <strong>adaptability, collaboration, and client focus.</strong></p><div style="min-height:1.2em;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </div><p style="min-height:1.5em">If you’re ready to help build Europe’s leading platform for property operations — and make a tangible impact on how the real estate industry works —<strong> join SINGU and be part of this transformation.</strong></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2><strong>The Opportunity</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><p style="min-height:1.5em">SINGU provides <strong>property and facilities management technology</strong> for organisations operating <strong>complex, multi-site estates</strong>.

and network into <strong>measurable commercial impact</strong>.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">Success will be measured not simply through market visibility or activity, but through SINGU's ability to
