• Develop and adapt commercial policies related to new and existing contract pricing, large customer agreements, legal disputes, and more
• Join weekly Investment Committee calls and develop a deep understanding of Digital Realty’s global investment activities
• Compile updates across the broader Global Operations team for senior leadership to use in preparation for investor days, earnings calls, and other public engagements

• Collaborate with other GCO members to drive team effectiveness and further impact across Digital Realty

   

What you’ll need 

• 1-2 years of experience in investment banking or strategy consulting at an Analyst or similar level
• Advanced proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint required; proficiency with business intelligence tools both AI-driven (e.g., Claude, Codex) and not AI-driven (e.g., Power BI) preferred

• Strong quantitative skills, with experience in financial and/or operational modeling 
• Problem-solver with a high degree of intellectual curiosity and an ability to exercise prudent business judgment
• Clear and confident communicator who can tailor messaging for both executive and non-executive audiences
