Description

**THIS ROLE IS WITH OUR CLIENT, The Henderson Group (https://www.hendersongroupinc.com/ )**

The Company

The Henderson Group has established a legacy in the Philadelphia commercial real estate industry with its 100-year history. The company’s foundation rests on core values of collaboration, commitment, concern, and craftsmanship. These values have fueled the reputation of the Henderson Group as a company that is able to provide exemplary services to its tenants, particularly as companies grow and expand their space requirements. The firm’s primary focus is on the acquisition, repositioning, leasing, and management of office and flex properties in the Philadelphia suburbs. Additionally, Henderson develops new construction properties opportunistically. The headquarters office is located in Media, a suburb 20 miles west of Philadelphia. The Henderson Group is at an exciting time in its evolution. The company traces its roots to a small construction business founded by Wilbur Henderson, Sr., which was then was run for decades by his son, Wilbur, Jr. Under the Henderson family leadership, the company had success in commercial construction and real estate development, before narrowing its focus on the development, leasing and management of flex and office properties.

In 2013, the senior management team was restructured to lay the groundwork for significant growth of the company and the portfolio. The new senior management team has introduced innovation in technology, financial analytics, and property management. With a near-term goal of raising significant outside capital for the first time in the company’s history, the Henderson Group is poised for increased acquisition activity in the Philadelphia region going forward.

With its long history tied to the Henderson family, the culture within the company is one in which co-workers feel like family, even in the present day. Boasting a very low turnover, The Henderson Group is proud of its collaborative environment. The company is vertically integrated with 30 employees, with in-house capabilities including building maintenance, leasing, property management and construction management. Henderson’s portfolio totals approximately 3.4 million square feet. These assets are primarily flex and office properties located within the greater Philadelphia area. Its newest acquisition closed in November 2017 with the addition of 250,000 square feet of office space in Newtown Square purchased from Brandywine Realty Trust. Additionally, in July 2017 Henderson completed the ground-up development of Brandywine 6 in the company’s Chadds Ford Business Campus - a 72,000 square foot build-to-suit for the Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union. Henderson also owns and manages 600,000 square feet of flex and office space in Melbourne, Florida; and Henderson owns approximately 50 acres of developable land spread throughout its entire portfolio. One of Henderson’s strengths has been its concentration of space in key locations. For example, the company owns 1.8 million square feet of flex space near the Philadelphia International Airport. This strategy has allowed for Henderson’s tenants to grow and remain on site because of the variety of flexible options presented by the team. Going forward, Henderson plans to focus its work on solely office and flex uses in the greater Philadelphia region to grow the inventory options for current and prospective clients, always aiming to meet their evolving needs.
