This role will suit a person who, ideally, already has some working experience in property research – or another comparable area – and wants to take the next step up. The principal purpose of this role is to support in maintaining JLL’s market leading data on the UK I&L sector and to analyse market trends so that it supports our wide‑ranging I&L related businesses (Agency, Capital Markets and Professional teams) and our clients. JLL is a UK leading advisor across this sector and the quality of our research is a key differentiator for us.

This role will report to the Head of UK Industrial and Logistics Research. The role will be based in London.
