Amazon Seeking Real Estate Manager

There’s an interesting job posting from Amazon, which is seeking a Senior Manager for Data Center Real Estate to oversee its short and long-term capacity requirements. “The person in this role is responsible for locating appropriate properties, negotiating real estate agreements to secure target properties in a timely manner and managing outside real estate brokers providing Amazon services for the Company’s global data center and network infrastructure,” notes the posting.

Amazon’s data center real estate requirements will be driven by the growth of its cloud computing operation, Amazon Web Services, which has prompted the company to keep expanding its infrastructure even as the economy has slowed.
