Vice President Asset Management

MHW Search has partnered with a rapidly growing Real Estate Investment firm in Denver in search of a Vice President of Asset Management to oversee a portfolio of industrial assets. The firm is extremely well capitalized.

A growing private equity real estate investment platform is seeking a Vice President of Asset Management to take a senior role in driving performance and value creation across a national portfolio of industrial and flex assets.

The firm focuses primarily on value-add and core-plus investment opportunities and operates with a lean, entrepreneurial team structure. With more than $2 billion of combined team transaction experience across 15 states and an approximately 4M SF portfolio, the platform combines institutional investment discipline with a hands‑on approach to ownership and execution.

This position will have meaningful responsibility across the full investment lifecycle. The Vice President will oversee property‑level strategy and execution, leasing and capital initiatives, financial performance, and major investment decisions including refinancings, recapitalizations, and dispositions. The individual will also work closely with the acquisitions team on underwriting and due diligence for new investments.

The successful candidate should be equally comfortable making a portfolio‑level hold/sell recommendation, underwriting a refinance, negotiating a major lease, evaluating a capital project, improving internal processes, and getting into the details of a challenging asset‑level issue.

The scope of the position and leadership responsibilities can expand meaningfully over time based on demonstrated judgment, performance, and the continued growth of the platform.
