Job Description

Meta's infrastructure underpins some of the world's most widely used platforms, and the data center lease portfolio that supports this infrastructure must be managed with precision, strategic foresight, and operational rigor. Meta is seeking an experienced Lease Portfolio Manager to join the Global Leasing organization, responsible for overseeing a large-scale, geographically distributed portfolio of data center lease agreements. In this role, you will drive portfolio-level strategy, manage complex contractual obligations, and ensure that leased capacity aligns with Meta's long-range infrastructure demand forecasts. You will serve as a critical link between real estate, finance, legal, and capacity planning teams to optimize lease structures, mitigate risk, and support Meta's global data center growth.

Job Responsibility

  • Develop and maintain portfolio-level capacity models that align leased data center inventory with long-range infrastructure demand forecasts
  • Lead lease restructuring, renewal, and exit negotiations in coordination with legal, finance, and site selection teams
  • Identify and escalate portfolio risks related to capacity shortfalls, lease expirations, or contractual non-compliance, and drive resolution strategies
  • Build and maintain financial models to evaluate lease economics, including total cost of ownership, capital exposure, and scenario analysis across lease structures
  • Partner with capacity planning and infrastructure teams to translate compute and power demand signals into actionable lease portfolio decisions
  • Develop and enforce portfolio governance standards, including lease abstraction processes, data integrity protocols, and reporting cadences
  • Collaborate with legal and compliance teams to ensure lease agreements meet regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions
  • Produce executive-level reporting and portfolio dashboards that communicate capacity availability, financial commitments, and strategic risks
  • Evaluate market conditions, colocation provider landscapes, and emerging lease structures to inform long-term portfolio strategy

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in a directly related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 10+ years of experience in data center lease portfolio management, real estate asset management, or data center capacity planning
  • Experience managing large-scale, multi-site data center lease portfolios across diverse geographies and lease structures (e.g., Modified Gross, NNN, Yield-on-Cost)
  • Experience developing financial models for lease transactions, including NPV analysis, capital exposure modeling, and sensitivity analysis
  • Experience collaborating across legal, finance, real estate, and infrastructure or capacity planning functions to drive portfolio decisions
  • Experience synthesizing complex contractual, financial, and operational data into executive-level communications and strategic recommendations

Nice to have

  • Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
  • Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices in data analysis and decision-support contexts
  • Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize portfolio reporting workflows and drive measurable efficiency or accuracy improvements
  • Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
  • Experience integrating capacity demand forecasting methodologies with real estate portfolio planning in a hyperscale or large enterprise data center environment
  • Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
