Commercial Real Estate Advisor

Description

Build a long‑term career in commercial real estate with commission potential, hands‑on training, and financial support during your early ramp‑up.

Colliers | Wisconsin is growing, and we’re looking to add a Commercial Real Estate Advisor who wants to build a long‑term career in the Wausau and North Central Wisconsin market.

This is an entry‑level, learn‑the‑business role designed for someone who is motivated, curious, and ready to invest in their future. You’ll work directly alongside experienced commercial advisors, receive hands‑on mentorship, and gain real exposure to leasing, sales, and client advisory work across multiple property types.

• Someone early in their career who wants to learn commercial real estate the right way
• A residential real estate agent curious about transitioning into commercial
• A recent or upcoming graduate who is motivated, people‑oriented, and eager to grow

To start, this role is home‑office based. You’ll work independently from your home office while staying closely connected to our advisory team through mentorship, collaboration, and shared projects.

Because this is a relationship‑driven business, being local to the Wausau and North Central Wisconsin area is essential. You’ll be out in the market regularly giving in‑person property tours, meeting clients, attending networking events, and connecting with local business owners and partners.

This is not a desk‑only role. The flexibility of working from home is balanced with being visible, engaged, and present in the community.

You won’t be thrown into this alone. From day one, you’ll work side by side with seasoned advisors and gradually take on more responsibility as your skills grow.

• Learn commercial real estate by supporting active leasing and sales transactions
• Help identify and pursue new business through networking and relationship building
• Assist with market research, property analysis, and client materials
• Participate in client meetings, property tours, and local business events
• Help prepare proposals, marketing materials, and presentations
• Build relationships with property owners, tenants, investors, and local professionals
• Track activity and opportunities using CRM and internal tools
• Develop a strong understanding of the Wausau and North Central Wisconsin market

This is a hands‑on role where learning happens through real work, not busywork.

This is a 1099, commission‑based position designed as a long‑term career path in commercial real estate.

We recognize that building a book of business takes time, especially for early‑career advisors or those new to commercial brokerage. To support long‑term success, Colliers | Wisconsin may offer short‑term financial support for developing advisors who need it while they are learning the business, building relationships, and gaining traction in the market.

This support is intended to help newer advisors focus on growth, networking, and skill‑building during their early ramp‑up period. As advisors begin closing transactions and generating consistent commission income, compensation naturally transitions to a fully commission‑based structure.

Established brokers with an existing, high‑volume network typically do not require this type of support, as they are expected to generate immediate transaction activity.

Regardless of background, all advisors receive mentorship, coaching, and exposure to experienced professionals as they grow into full advisory responsibility.

• Early‑career professionals eager to learn and grow
• Individuals with 1 to 3 years of experience in real estate, sales, brokerage, or another client‑facing role
• Residential agents interested in moving into commercial real estate
• Recent or upcoming graduates with strong follow‑through and curiosity
• People who enjoy talking with others and building long‑term relationships
• Organized, dependable self‑starters who are comfortable working independently
• Willing to obtain a Wisconsin real estate license if not already licensed

• Better Together: We collaborate, share knowledge, and support one another
• Warrior Spirit: We show grit, resilience, and consistency
• Empathy: We listen first and treat people with respect

• Real mentorship from experienced commercial advisors
• Exposure to a wide range of property types and transactions
• Flexibility of a home‑office structure with strong team support
• A collaborative environment where effort and initiative are noticed
• Long‑term growth potential in the Wausau and North Central Wisconsin market

If you’re curious about commercial real estate, enjoy building relationships, and want to create something meaningful over time, we’d love to talk.
