Reporting to the SVP, Sales & Marketing and collaborating with internal leadership, you'll be responsible for maximizing NOI, enhancing asset value, and delivering exceptional operational and tenant outcomes.

Your role blends high-level planning with hands-on leadership. You'll prepare and execute annual business plans, monitor asset performance, and oversee budgets, forecasts, and capex planning.

You hold a bachelor's degree in Business, Real Estate, Urban Land Economics, or a related field and a valid Rental Property Management License in BC. Proficient with property management systems like Yardi, you also bring comfort with reporting tools and a commitment to continuous improvement.

Above all, you're a thoughtful, collaborative leader who communicates clearly, acts with integrity, and is motivated to contribute to a growing platform with a meaningful long-term vision.
