    Asset Management Executive Search

    Cory Executive Recruiting recruits asset management leaders who protect and grow the value of real estate portfolios — from Analysts and Asset Managers through Directors, VPs, and Heads of Asset Management — for owner-operators, investment managers, and private equity firms nationwide. We place the people who own business-plan execution, hold/sell decisions, and returns. Because our team understands the investment side as deeply as the operational side, we screen for leaders who can actually drive NOI and execute a business plan, not just manage a spreadsheet.

    • Real Estate Analyst

    How We Search

    Every search runs through our 4 Cs framework — Culture, Compensation, Challenges & Growth, and Commute — so the leader we place fits the role and stays in it. Our searches are senior-led and confidential, our slates are vetted rather than volume-sourced, and our placements are backed by a replacement guarantee.

    Verticals

    Nine verticals. One firm that understands all of them.

    Real estate isn't one industry. A multifamily COO doesn't run a build-to-rent portfolio. A PropTech CFO doesn't operate like a CRE CFO. We staff search teams who know the difference.
