Often seen as the “engine” of Facilities Planning Analysts will work in a fast-paced and collaborative environment to drive detailed data analysis and develop high quality client deliverables. The best Analysts excel in an environment where they are challenged to learn quickly and take ownership early while managing multiple tasks effectively and embracing a demanding work environment that values ongoing professional growth.

• Developing presentations to communicate the campus story, suggest strategic plans and cultivate engagement in Gordian’s recommendations and partnering with Project Leads and Account Managers to create and fine-tune presentations

• Assist in delivering presentations to members on campus

Qualifications:

• A minimum of a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience

• Strong communication and presentation skills

• Strong organizational and prioritization skills to manage multiple projects simultaneously

• Analytical skills – the ability to have numbers “tell a story”

• Proven success working as both a leader and a learner in a team environment
