Institutional real estate asset manager for German and European markets
HIH Invest manages €25B+ in assets across institutional real estate mandates, funds, and club deals across Europe. Their tech stack is enterprise-heavy—SAP S/4HANA, Salesforce, Power BI, SQL—with active hiring concentrated in finance and data roles, but notably they're still developing Excel/VBA macros and wrestling with data warehouse standardization. This hiring+project mix signals a mid-stage digital modernization: transitioning from manual Excel-driven workflows toward centralized BI and data pipelines, while compliance and reporting standardization remain friction points.
