Associate, Immobilieninvestment & Entwicklung (m/w/d)

At EV Realty, we're building the infrastructure backbone that powers the electrification of next generation commercial fleets - one high-powered charging hub at a time.

We develop, own, and operate purpose-built EV charging hubs designed to solve the critical barrier to fleet electrification: access to reliable, low-cost, scalable grid power. Our Powered Properties?? are strategically located to serve fleet customers where they operate, providing dedicated, secure charging solutions where and when they need it most. We build with reliability and scale in mind, delivering the infrastructure that mission-critical commercial fleets require to keep moving.

We believe in transparency, ownership, and building things the right way - for our customers and for our team. If you're excited to help build the new era of commercial transportation, we'd love to meet you.

As a Real Estate Investment & Development Associate you will support the expansion of EV Realty's owned real estate portfolio, comprising both operating low-coverage industrial assets and green/brownfield sites held for development as high-powered EV fleet charging facilities. Reporting to the Head of Real Estate & Development and collaborating closely with in-house Data Science, Engineering, Product, Business Development and Finance teams, you will take on ownership of market coverage for up to four US markets for acquisition and pre-development of new properties. Requiring a better-than-institutional understanding of how real estate value is actually created and captured, the role will involve all activities typical of a real estate acquisition process - including sourcing, underwriting, diligence, and investment committee memo preparation/presentation - as well as power infrastructure, entitlement, and commercial considerations unique to EV Realty's high-powered real estate thesis and fund mandate.

This role will be located in San Francisco, CA or Los Angeles, CA.
