Associate Field Manager
ABOUT VTS
VTS is the fastest-growing Proptech company in the history of commercial real estate (CRE). We have transformed a $15 trillion dollar industry with our award-winning platform which is used to manage over 60% of all office buildings. We’re continuing to expand our product offerings and are building the industry’s first and only online marketing software and end-to-end leasing marketplace, VTS Market. VTS Market will enable landlords to market their available spaces more effectively, and help tenant rep brokers and their tenants easily find and lease space online – a process that has traditionally been offline and difficult.
It’s an exciting time to join the VTS team – we recently reached unicorn status after raising $90 million in series D funding led by our clients (believed to be the largest venture financing in the history of commercial real estate software), we recently made the Forbes Cloud 100 list of the hottest private cloud companies, and were named one of Crain's best places to work!
Our headquarters are in NYC, but we have hubs in other major US cities, Toronto, CA, and London, UK.

How does this job help VTS succeed?
As an Associate Field Manager at VTS, you’ll be responsible for the success and engagement of our brokerage user community across some of the most important markets in the commercial real estate industry.

You’ll build advocacy in the user community, ensuring the industry’s only first-party data powered marketplace is a vibrant ecosystem and, in the process, transform how the industry operates.

Using that insight, you’ll provide exceptional service to our brokerage community, shepherding them from day one of their client journey in partnership with the rest of the VTS client success team. You’ll host training webinars, zoom meetings, and (once it’s safe to do so) in-person meetings and enablement/certification events with the brokerage community you’re responsible for.
More than just executing a playbook, you’ll help build out the programs that make it easy, fun, and memorable for commercial real estate professionals to understand, enjoy, and fully adopt VTS as part of their everyday life, acting as an evangelist for VTS as an industry-changing organization and platform.
