Head of Market Research and Land Development

About the Role

To support an accelerated deal pace and increased capital deployment, Mas Development is building a dedicated research function from the ground up and this role is central to that transformation.

This person will own the redesign and day-to-day operation of Mas Development's market research infrastructure, moving the team from scattered, reactive tools to a unified, proactive, data-driven system.

The ideal candidate is entrepreneurial, mid-to-senior level, and thrives with autonomy.

Key Responsibilities

System Design & Data Infrastructure

• Audit and consolidate existing research tools (third-party platforms, Excel, GIS) into a single, unified workflow.
• Build and maintain automated data pipelines for market tracking (population growth, AMI, job growth, economic development).
• Develop and maintain a centralized activity tracker for all target Florida markets.

Market Research & Reporting

• Conduct deep-dive research on assigned counties and cities, producing 1–2 page market snapshot reports within ~2 weeks.
• Present findings to the acquisitions team (Aaron, Nico) and full team in biweekly all-hands meetings.
• Monitor Florida legislation relevant to residential developers (e.g., bills enabling agricultural-zoned parcels to bypass standard approval processes).
• Track FDOT roadwork data and other infrastructure signals affecting land value.
