Overview
The General Manager (GM) has overall responsibility for the success and excellence of Station Twelve and is relentlessly focused on customer, tenant, and client experience while always keeping the financial bottom line in mind. The property will be the newest open-air project in this historic city and home to best-in-class retailers and beloved Buffalo locals.
The GM is a leader at WS Development with direct reports including Marketing Manager, Operations Manager, Office Manager, and works closely with security, housekeeping, and maintenance vendors.
The ideal candidate will be both a strategic leader and one that motivates his/her cross-functional and direct report team with a passion for and understanding of a modern consumer-centric experience.

Further, this person will possess exceptional interpersonal skills, the ability to sell what we do and inspire partners around the mission. This includes selling in the context of Leasing tours and brand partnership development.
