Our client is a growing, vertically integrated real estate organization focused on developing and operating high-quality purpose-built rental communities across Ontario.

With development, construction, and property operations working closely together, the organization takes a long-term approach to its assets. Projects are evaluated not only on design and financial performance, but also on constructability, durability, resident experience, and operational efficiency.

Our client is seeking a hands‑on Development Manager to oversee a small portfolio of active multifamily projects through planning, design, municipal approvals, construction, and turnover to property management.

This is an execution-focused position for someone who enjoys working directly with consultants, resolving design and coordination issues, maintaining control of budgets and schedules, and moving projects decisively toward completion.

• Manage approximately two concurrent purpose-built rental developments through the various stages of the development lifecycle.
• Establish project priorities, deliverables, schedules, budgets, and reporting requirements.
• Drive projects from early due diligence and entitlement through detailed design, permitting, construction, and operational turnover.
• Maintain visibility into project performance and ensure key decisions are made in a timely manner.
• Identify risks affecting approvals, costs, design, or schedule and present practical mitigation strategies to senior leadership.

• Coordinate rezoning, Official Plan Amendment, site plan, and building-permit processes, as applicable.
