A Canadian developer and construction manager, family-owned across multiple generations, has moved a portfolio of purpose-built rental towers from planning into approved work. They own the land, develop it, and build it themselves. That changes the job: the person running these buildings sits close to the decisions that shape them, not three layers removed. They’re hiring a Senior Project Manager now to deliver the first towers and grow into the Project Director role as the portfolio scales.

Duties include but are not limited to:
Full delivery accountability on high-rise residential rental, preconstruction through turnoverDirect working relationship with ownership and the executive team;
