3What this role really is

This job plans how office spaces support the way people work, across many locations. It links the reasons behind workplace decisions to the practical changes that follow, leading projects that affect how thousands of people experience their workday. It means coordinating architects, HR teams and finance teams so their separate plans add up to one strategy.

4What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

IWMS / Space Management (e.g., Serraview, iOFFICE, Archibus) Advanced

You'll configure new reports, manage complex scenario planning ('what-if' analysis) for space allocation, and train your team on how to get the most out of the platform. You're the power user and the go-to expert.

Data Visualisation (e.g., Tableau, Power BI) Expert

You'll design and build complex, interactive dashboards from scratch, using advanced calculations (like LOD expressions or DAX) to uncover deep insights into space utilisation, employee sentiment, and portfolio performance. You'll use these to tell compelling stories to leadership.

Financial Modelling (e.g., Anaplan, Excel with Power Query/VBA) Advanced

You'll build complex financial models from the ground up to assess lease vs. buy decisions, project Net Present Value (NPV) for new investments, and understand portfolio-level impacts of your strategies. This isn't just about basic formulas; it's about sophisticated scenario analysis.

Collaboration/Design (e.g., Miro, Bluebeam Revu) Advanced

You'll lead complex design thinking and space planning workshops in Miro, guiding diverse teams through ideation and problem-solving. You'll also manage the digital review process for architectural plans in Bluebeam, ensuring strategic intent is translated accurately into design.

Utilisation Sensing Platforms (e.g., Density, VergeSense) Advanced

You'll analyse historical sensor data to identify trends, validate space planning assumptions, and build robust business cases for changes to our office layouts or policies. You'll be using this data to make smart, evidence-based decisions.

HRIS Integration (e.g., Workday HCM, SAP SuccessFactors) Intermediate

You'll work closely with HRIS teams to understand data structures and ensure accurate headcount data flows into our IWMS. This is crucial for precise occupancy planning and forecasting. You won't be configuring the HRIS, but you'll know enough to ask the right questions and ensure data quality.

5What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing in Where you are nowThe step above
Workplace Strategy Framework Design Supports with data gathering and initial drafts. Contributes sections, proposes specific elements. Leads the design, makes recommendations to leadership.
Programme Budget Allocation (e.g., for a new office fit-out or technology pilot) No authority, tracks expenses. Proposes budget line items, flags discrepancies. Manages project budgets up to £50K, flags overruns.
Team Hiring & Performance Management No involvement. Provides input on candidate skills. Interviews candidates, provides feedback, mentors informally.
Vendor Selection (e.g., for space planning software or sensor technology) Researches potential vendors. Evaluates vendor proposals against criteria. Recommends preferred vendors, participates in negotiations.

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Project Delivery Rate
The percentage of major workplace strategy projects completed on time and within the agreed budget.
Target · 90% of projects delivered on time, within 5% of budget.

Leading the EMEA office consolidation project: target completion Q4, actual Q4. Budget £2M, actual £1.95M. That's a win.

Space Utilisation Improvement
The measurable increase in effective space utilisation (e.g., desk utilisation, meeting room occupancy) in offices where new strategies have been implemented.
Target · 15% increase in average desk utilisation across piloted sites within 12 months post-implementation.

After rolling out free-address seating in our London office, average desk utilisation went from 40% to 55%—that's 15% more people using the same space.

Cost per Seat Reduction
The reduction in the average annual cost associated with each available workspace.
Target · Achieve a 10% reduction in average cost per seat for new or optimised offices.

By optimising our Berlin office layout and reducing overall footprint, we cut the cost per seat from £8,000 to £7,200.

Team Performance & Development
The effectiveness of your direct reports, measured by their project contributions, skill growth, and engagement.
Target · 80% of direct reports meet or exceed performance goals; at least 2 team members complete a significant professional development course annually.

Last year, two of your strategists successfully led their first multi-site projects, and one completed their CoreNet Global MCR qualification.

Stakeholder Buy-in & Adoption
How well your strategies are accepted and adopted by business unit leaders and employees, rather than being met with resistance or apathy.
  • Business leaders proactively seek your input on growth plans
  • high attendance and positive feedback from change champion networks
  • employee surveys show understanding and support for new workplace policies
  • strategies are implemented without major pushback.
Strategic Framework Impact
The extent to which the strategic frameworks and playbooks you design are actually used and valued across the organisation.
  • Regional teams consistently follow your established guidelines for new office fit-outs
  • other departments (like HR or IT) reference your strategic documents in their own planning
  • your frameworks are seen as the 'go-to' for workplace decisions, not just a suggestion.
Innovation & Future Readiness
Your ability to bring fresh ideas to the table and ensure our workplace strategy is prepared for upcoming trends and challenges.
  • You're regularly presenting new concepts (e.g., neuro-inclusive design, advanced sensor tech) to leadership
  • we're piloting new workplace models that keep us ahead of competitors
  • our strategy explicitly addresses future risks like climate change or talent shifts.
Team Leadership & Mentorship
How effectively you lead, develop, and inspire your direct reports and project teams.
  • Your team members feel supported and challenged
  • they're growing their skills and taking on more responsibility
  • you're seen as a trusted advisor and mentor, not just a manager
  • team morale is consistently high.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Solving Complex Puzzles

You'll spend your days untangling knotty problems like 'How do we design a space that supports both deep focus work and intense collaboration for a hybrid team spread across three continents?' You love connecting disparate pieces of information – utilisation data, employee feedback, business growth projections – to form a coherent, actionable plan.

Figuring out how to consolidate three smaller offices into one larger, more efficient hub, while making sure every department feels they've got what they need, is your idea of a good time.

Shaping the Future of Work

This role is all about looking ahead. You're constantly thinking about what's next for our workplaces – how technology will change things, what new employee expectations are emerging, and how we can stay ahead of the curve. You're excited by the idea of creating environments that genuinely empower people.

Leading the charge on implementing a new activity-based working model that fundamentally changes how people interact with the office, and seeing it succeed.

Building and Developing Teams

You get a real kick out of seeing your team members grow. You'll spend time mentoring junior strategists, helping them develop their skills, and giving them opportunities to lead. Watching them succeed and take ownership of their projects is a big motivator for you.

Coaching a junior analyst through their first big presentation to a senior business leader, and seeing them absolutely nail it.

What frustrates people
  • The HiPPO Effect: Months of data analysis and employee research being overturned by the 'Highest Paid Person's Opinion' after a single walk-through of the proposed design. It happens, and you'll need to learn to manage it.
  • The Finance vs. HR Tug-of-War: Constantly being caught between Finance's mandate to slash cost-per-square-foot and HR's mandate to create a premium employee experience to attract talent. It's a balancing act.
  • 'Badge Data is Not Truth': Fighting the executive assumption that building entry badge swipes are an accurate measure of how people are actually using the office space throughout the day. You'll need to educate them.
  • Pilot Purgatory: Successfully running a pilot project that proves a new concept works, only to see the global rollout stalled for years due to budget constraints or shifting priorities. It can be frustrating, but you'll learn to pivot.
  • Change Fatigue: Launching a brilliant new workplace strategy right after the company has gone through a re-org, a new ERP implementation, and a benefits change, leading to employee exhaustion and resistance. Timing is everything, and sometimes it's out of your hands.
What this role does not give you
  • A perfectly predictable day-to-day schedule – expect urgent requests and shifting priorities.
  • Complete autonomy without needing to justify your decisions to multiple stakeholders.
  • A role where you can avoid difficult conversations about budgets or employee resistance.

8Who you work with

Your decisions here directly influence our global real estate spend, which is a massive line item for us. More importantly, you'll shape the day-to-day experience for thousands of employees. Get it right, and you boost productivity and morale. Get it wrong, and you're looking at expensive mistakes and a frustrated workforce. It's a big deal, frankly.

Inside the business
  • Director, Global Workplace Strategy (your boss, for strategic alignment)
  • HR Business Partners (for talent acquisition, retention, and employee experience)
  • IT Infrastructure Leads (for technology integration and digital workplace needs)
  • Regional Facilities Managers (the folks who make your plans a reality on the ground)
  • Finance Business Partners (for budget approvals and cost-benefit analysis)
  • Senior Business Unit Leaders (the people whose teams you're designing for)
Outside the business
  • Architects and Interior Design Firms (who translate strategy into physical design)
  • Furniture and Technology Vendors (who supply the tools for the new workplace)
  • Real Estate Brokers and Consultants (for market insights and portfolio transactions)

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • A proven track record of leading complex workplace strategy projects from concept to completion, demonstrating measurable impact.
  • Demonstrable experience managing and mentoring junior team members, fostering their growth and ensuring project delivery.
  • Advanced proficiency in data analysis and visualisation, capable of building complex models and dashboards to inform strategic decisions.
  • Experience in financial modelling related to real estate, including lease analysis, NPV calculations, and cost-benefit analysis.
  • Strong understanding and practical application of change management principles within a large, global organisation.
  • A minimum of 8 years of progressive experience in corporate real estate, facilities management, or workplace strategy roles, or equivalent experience.

10What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Digital Twin Integration

Digital twins – virtual replicas of our physical buildings – are becoming incredibly sophisticated. You'll need to move beyond just viewing data in an IWMS to integrating real-time sensor data, building management systems, and even AI models into a comprehensive digital twin. This will allow for predictive maintenance, hyper-personalised environments, and truly data-driven operational decisions.

Real-time Data Streams · Predictive Analytics for Building Performance · Simulation & Optimisation · Interoperability Standards (e.g., IFC, OpenBIM)

  • This month: Research leading Digital Twin platforms and their applications in corporate real estate.
  • Next quarter: Explore how our current IWMS could integrate with other building systems (e.g., BMS, access control).
  • Month 3-6: Lead a small pilot project to integrate a new data stream (e.g., air quality sensors) into our existing digital representation.
  • Month 6-9: Develop a business case for a more comprehensive Digital Twin strategy for a key office location.

Quick win: Familiarise yourself with the concept of 'smart buildings' and how data from various systems can be combined to offer new insights. Start asking our Facilities team what data they currently collect.

11Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly attending industry conferences and webinars (e.g., CoreNet Global Summits, Workplace Trends events) to stay on top of emerging trends and network with peers.
  • Subscribing to key industry publications and research (e.g., JLL, CBRE, Gartner reports on workplace strategy) to keep your knowledge current.
  • Actively participating in professional associations and local chapters (e.g., CoreNet UK, RICS) to build your network and share best practices.
  • Seeking out opportunities to mentor junior colleagues or participate in cross-functional leadership development programmes within the company.

What's rising in its place

This is where the work is heading, and the higher pay with it. Get fluent here and the shift stops being a threat and starts being your edge.

Ethical AI & Data Governance

As we use more AI for predictive analytics and generative design in workplace strategy, understanding the ethical implications of data collection (e.g., utilisation sensors, employee sentiment) and ensuring fair, unbiased outcomes will be paramount. Regulators are catching up, and we need to be ahead of them.

  • Bias Detection in AI Models
  • Privacy-Preserving Analytics
  • AI Explainability (XAI)
  • Responsible AI Frameworks

Circular Economy Principles in CRE

Sustainability is no longer a 'nice-to-have'; it's a business imperative and a regulatory requirement. Applying circular economy principles to our corporate real estate means designing for disassembly, reusing materials, and minimising waste throughout the lifecycle of our buildings and fit-outs. This will directly impact our ESG reporting and brand reputation.

  • Design for Disassembly (DfD)
  • Material Passports
  • Upcycling & Repurposing
  • Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a Lead Global Workplace Strategy Director's plate is always full. You're juggling team management, strategic planning, stakeholder wrangling, and a mountain of data. What if you could offload some of the heavy lifting and focus on the truly strategic stuff? Our AI Productivity Hub is designed to do just that.

Imagine having a super-smart assistant that can crunch numbers, summarise trends, and even draft communications in minutes, not hours. For a Lead in Workplace Strategy, this means less time wrestling with spreadsheets and more time actually shaping the future of our offices. We're not talking about replacing your brain; we're talking about giving you a serious upgrade.

Automated Stacking Plan Generator

Fed up with manually shuffling departments around floor plans? Use AI to generate thousands of optimised stacking plan options in minutes. Just give it your adjacency requirements (e.g., 'Marketing needs to be near Sales'), headcount projections, and space constraints. It’ll spit out layouts you might never have thought of, saving you days of manual work and giving you more options to present.

Predictive Utilisation Analysis

Stop guessing about future space needs. Our AI analyses historical sensor data, meeting room bookings, and badge swipes to forecast future demand for different space types – think focus rooms, collaboration zones, or quiet pods. This helps you prevent costly over- or under-building, making your budget go further and ensuring we always have the right space at the right time. You'll spot trends before they become problems.

Workplace Trend Synthesiser

Keeping up with the latest in workplace design, neuro-inclusive spaces, or sustainable materials is a full-time job in itself. Use our AI research assistant to scan and summarise the newest academic papers, industry reports, and articles. It'll provide you with curated, digestible insights for your strategy documents, saving you hours of reading and making sure your recommendations are always based on the latest thinking.

Persona-Based Change Comms

Rolling out a new workplace strategy means communicating with everyone, and one size rarely fits all. Our AI can draft tailored communication plans and messages for different employee personas. It can generate different messages for engineers (focusing on tech and focus space) versus sales teams (highlighting client-facing areas and collaboration hubs), ensuring your message lands effectively and reduces resistance.
