Location: Preference for Atlanta, GA (Ponce City Market), open to remote for exceptional candidates

Type: Contract engagement (structured with a base fee, performance incentive, and equity in Northspyre), with the potential to transition into a full-time role. Open to a salaried position for the right candidate.

The Mission: Northspyre has become the leading platform for real estate development teams with over $500B of development projects facilitated. We are building a media-first marketing operation to become the primary source of truth for the real estate development industry. Your role would be as an on-camera real estate analyst and host for a series of edutainment campaigns. 

For example we need a host who can look at a complex real estate deal, rip it apart, run the pro-forma, and deliver a "Go / No-Go" verdict—all in under 60 seconds.

Who You Are: You are a Real Estate "Native" who speaks the language of the Capital Stack. You know what "Yield on Cost," "Exit Cap," and "Hard Cost Contingency" mean because you’ve actually worked in the industry (Development, Acquisitions, Brokerage, or Equity).

But you also have "The It Factor." You know how to talk to a camera. You understand that on social media, you have 3 seconds to hook the audience before they scroll. You make complex deals feel urgent, controversial, and worth debating.

What You Will Do:

  • You will be the face of our flagship short-form series evaluating real estate development deals and/or educating up and coming real estate development professionals about the ins and outs of the field. 
  • Analyze the Market: We will give you a target (e.g., "Multifamily in Austin" or "Industrial in Nashville"). You will help us script the "deal assumptions" based on real market data.You’ll also generate ideas for content. 
  • Bring the Energy: You will record vertical video segments (green screen or styled background) where you will talk confidently to the audience in a compelling way. 
  • Engage the Community: You aren't just reading lines; you are asking the audience the hard questions that generate lots of engagement ("Would you buy this at a 5 cap?").
  • Stay up to date on the market but reading industry publications and knowing what’s happening in real estate markets across the country. 

Requirements:

  • Domain Expertise: Proven background in CRE (Analyst, Associate, or Broker level). You must be able to sniff out a bad deal. 3-5+ years in commercial real estate or a bachelors or masters degree focused on real estate development and/or land economics or a similar subject. 
  • On-Camera Presence: You must be comfortable speaking fast, clearly, and with authority. (Bonus if you have your own TikTok/IG/YouTube channel).
  • Tech Savvy: Comfortable recording high-quality video and audio.
  • The Deal Operator: You understand how to calculate IRR, structure a capital stack, and explain how development deals come together. You can confidently ad-lib about both the math and the strategy behind a deal.
  • The Sharp Explainer: You can break down a deal quickly and clearly. You know how to deliver insight with speed and precision — getting to the point without losing substance.
  • The Opinionated Analyst: You’ve built real models, formed real investment opinions, and can articulate why a deal works (or doesn’t). You bring perspective, not just spreadsheets.

First interview step:

Record a 60-second video (phone selfie mode is fine) pitching us a "Bad Deal."

  • Pick a market (e.g., "San Francisco Office").
  • Tell us why it's a bad deal using 3 specific data points (Rents, Construction Costs, Vacancy).
  • End with a strong hook/question.
  • Upload the video to Loom, YouTube, or Drive and include the link.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
