DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT

Trojan Storage seeks talented individuals who have an entrepreneurial spirit and desire a fast‑paced work environment. Job candidates who are self-starters, reliable teammates, and need little oversight are ideal. Trojan Storage is currently seeking a Director of Development to join its growing team.

About the Company

Trojan Storage is a national owner, operator, and developer of self-storage facilities headquartered in El Segundo, CA. The Company was founded in 2007 by USC colleagues with the purpose of acquiring and repositioning underperforming self-storage assets. In 2018, Trojan experienced a highly successful liquidity event that significantly improved the trajectory of Trojan, giving us the capacity, balance sheet, track record and access to grow at a far faster pace without sacrificing culture and philosophy.

Since the sale, the Company has acquired and developed 26 self-storage facilities with over 2.5 million square feet located throughout California, Oregon, Illinois, New Jersey, and Washington. These existing facilities have an estimated market value of +$750 million. Further, the Company is continuing its rapid growth with an additional 11 ground-up-development projects concentrated along the West and East Coasts. In addition to the owned portfolio of assets and land, the Company third-party manages 1.7 million square feet.

An accelerated growth phase is anticipated over the foreseeable future due to a strong pipeline of new projects and a well-capitalized balance sheet. The Company’s team is seeking to build one of the largest class A self-storage portfolios in the US.
