The Opportunity
Rex is seeking a Head of Acquisitions to drive direct origination and execution across its real estate investment platform. This is a front-line, deal-driving role responsible for finding, shaping, and advancing opportunities, not sitting behind a model. The platform is active, scaling, and capitalized, with real transaction velocity. This hire exists to increase both the volume and quality of deals entering the pipeline and to help convert them into closed acquisitions. This role is anchored by three mandates: source aggressively, underwrite with conviction, and close with urgency. You will hunt by building broker relationships, running outbound, and generating proprietary deal flow. You will evaluate opportunities quickly and sharply, filtering signal from noise. You will drive deals from first touch through LOI to close, coordinating internal stakeholders and external partners to win in competitive processes. This is not a support function. You own pipeline creation and are accountable for outcomes. The ideal candidate has 7 to 8 years of experience and operates with edge, high intensity, strong commercial instincts, and a bias toward action. Early in career but already dangerous, they are comfortable in the field, not just in Excel. They know how to push, persuade, and create leverage to get deals done. This is a hunter’s seat for someone who wants real reps, real ownership, and direct exposure to deal-making. This is not for passive analysts or career spectators. It is for operators who want to be in the arena, sourcing and closing real transactions. Must be missionary to the bone, fully aligned with the mission and relentless in pursuit of it. Fully remote.
About the Role
Rex is hiring a Head of Acquisitions to translate the firm’s active, capitalized investment platform into increased deal flow, sharper underwriting, and consistent transaction execution. The platform has real velocity and clear momentum, with a mandate to expand both the volume and quality of opportunities entering the pipeline.
This role owns outcomes across sourcing, underwriting, and execution, ensuring speed, discipline, and conviction at every stage of the deal lifecycle. You will operate as the connective tissue between brokers, sellers, and internal stakeholders, driving alignment from first touch through LOI to close while maintaining a high bar for investment quality and competitiveness.
You will actively build and deepen relationships across broker networks and ownership groups, generating proprietary opportunities and positioning Rex to win in competitive processes. You will establish systems, rhythms, and personal operating discipline that convert outbound activity into actionable pipeline, balancing aggressiveness with precision and keeping deal quality at the center of every decision.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role for an acquisitions professional with strong commercial instincts, a builder mindset, and the ability to translate opportunity into closed transactions. It is a front-line seat for someone who wants real reps, real ownership, and direct exposure to deal-making.
