About This Opportunity

At Regency Centers, our people are our greatest asset, and we believe that our highly skilled and talented team makes us better. We are seeking a Manager of Tenant Coordination (MTC) to join our regional office located in Bronxville, NY. The overall purpose of this role is to guide new tenants through every phase from lease execution to store opening. In this role, you will ensure that all projects align with lease requirements, timelines, and operational standards—ultimately driving on-time rent commencement. The MTC acts as the main liaison between tenants, leasing agents, property managers, and project managers, orchestrating the tenant improvement process while maintaining a strong focus on communication, schedule adherence, and lease compliance.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Pre-Lease Execution:
  • Collaborate with Leasing and Property teams to understand tenant space requirements and review landlord deliverables.
    • Support the preparation of lease exhibits such as demised space plans, landlord’s scope of work, preliminary budgets in collaboration with the project managers, and tenant sign criteria.
  • Review lease abstracts and work letters to identify critical obligations (e.g., key dates, contingencies, and rent commencement details).
    • Deliver “Welcome Aboard” letters to tenants, outlining the coordination process and next steps.
  • Provide tenants with relevant documentation (as-built plans, site design criteria, signage guidelines).
    • Facilitate the installation of “Coming Soon” graphics, working closely with Marketing to meet brand standards.
• Lease Execution:
  • Support the preparation of lease exhibits such as demised space plans, landlord’s scope of work, preliminary budgets in collaboration with the project managers, and tenant sign criteria.
• Tenant Build-Out Coordination:
  • Oversee tenant improvement activities from lease execution through opening, ensuring all milestones and lease requirements are met.
• Landlord Work Coordination:
  • Work with internal teams to track the landlord’s scope of work and confirm readiness for tenant occupancy.
• Punch List & Project Closeout:
  • Oversee the punch list process to ensure all remaining tasks are completed before tenant move-in.
• Ongoing Tenant Requests & Property Support:
  • Evaluate and approve changes to tenant signage, ensuring adherence to the property’s guidelines.
