With operations across Switzerland and India, Swiss DigiTech partners with leadership teams to create repeatable growth platforms that combine strategy, structure, and long-term value creation.

This mindset is now being applied to the launch of a premium residential rental portfolio, designed to scale across major Indian cities, starting with Delhi NCR.

What is the role:

We are building a premium rental portfolio from the ground up, targeting 50+ residential units across Delhi, Mumbai, and Goa. This role will lead the first acquisition phase in Delhi NCR, with ownership of sourcing, negotiating, and securing high-quality residential apartments under structured license agreements.

Once the Delhi portfolio is stabilized, the role will help replicate the acquisition model in Mumbai and Goa with local support. This is a hands-on, high-impact position suited for someone who understands landlord psychology, brokerage ecosystems, and residential leasing documentation.

• Identify and source 2 BHK / 3 BHK residential apartments in priority Delhi NCR micro-markets suitable for short- to medium-term rental use
• Build and manage relationships with landlords, brokers, society offices, and property managers to generate on- and off-market opportunities
• Conduct physical property visits to assess condition, location quality, and rental viability
• Negotiate commercial terms including rent, security deposit (target 2–3 months), lock-in periods, escalation, and renewal clauses
• Structure and present alternative security arrangements such as bank guarantees or fixed deposit receipts where applicable
• Secure exclusive or priority acquisition rights for portfolio-managed properties
• Coordinate with legal counsel to draft, register, and manage 11‑month leave-and-license agreements including e-stamping
• Ensure tenant verification and local compliance documentation are embedded into lease workflows
• Maintain a structured digital repository for agreements, landlord KYC, and registration records
• Track rental trends, yields, vacancy rates, and supply pipelines to inform acquisition decisions
• Contribute to building standardized acquisition SOPs for replication in Mumbai and Goa
• Provide ground-level market intelligence to support city-wise expansion timing

What you bring:

• 3–7 years of experience in residential real estate acquisition, leasing, property management, or brokerage
• Proven track record of closing a high volume of residential lease transactions (20+ annually preferred)
• Strong knowledge of Delhi NCR micro-markets, prevailing rental norms, and landlord expectations
• Solid negotiation skills with the ability to balance commercial outcomes and long-term relationships
• Working knowledge of 11‑month leave-and-license agreements, e-stamping, and registration processes
• Comfortable using CRMs, digital documentation tools, and spreadsheets for basic yield analysis
• Fluent in Hindi and English
