Join a growing real estate platform in a leadership role where you will take ownership of a significant property portfolio, lead and develop a team, and contribute to the continued expansion of the accounting function.

Your New Employer

Our client is a well-established and expanding real estate platform with a portfolio of institutional-quality office assets across major Canadian markets, including a strong presence in the GTA and Ottawa. The business is growing through acquisitions and more third-party property management mandates, making the accounting function central and evolving.

The platform is known for its disciplined and well-structured accounting environment, with a strong focus on accuracy, controls, and best practices. At the same time, the organization is investing in systems, automation, and process improvements, creating an environment that balances stability with ongoing change. The accounting team is highly collaborative, with low turnover and a strong emphasis on mentorship, professional development, and long-term career growth.

Your New Role

Reporting to the Controller, the Manager, Property Accounting, will take on a key leadership role overseeing financial reporting across a portfolio of office assets, including both owned and third-party-managed properties. This is a well-rounded position that combines technical accounting oversight, leadership, and cross-functional collaboration within a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment.

The Manager will be responsible for ensuring the accuracy and timeliness of monthly financial reporting, supporting budgeting and reforecasting processes, and assisting with year-end audit requirements. The role will also support acquisitions, dispositions, and new property onboarding, including due diligence and post-closing adjustments, while ensuring accounting records and processes remain consistent and aligned with internal standards.

The Manager will oversee CAM and tax recoveries, capital cost tracking, and the review of working papers, and support the property management and administration teams in the financial performance of their portfolios. This role is key to maintaining and improving internal controls,



developing and standardizing procedures, and supporting ongoing system enhancements in a highly integrated Yardi environment.

A significant component of the role is leadership. The Manager will oversee a team of Property Accountants, provide mentorship, hands-on training, and performance management while fostering a collaborative, accountable, and high-performing team environment. The role requires a hands-on leader who can take ownership of deliverables, drive execution, and effectively partner with stakeholders across the business.

What Sets You Apart

You bring a CPA designation along with approximately five to ten years of accounting experience, ideally within commercial real estate or a similar asset-based environment. You have demonstrated experience leading or mentoring accounting professionals and are recognized for your ability to coach, develop, and motivate teams while maintaining high standards of accuracy and accountability.

You possess a strong technical foundation in property accounting, financial reporting, budgeting, and tenant recoveries, along with the ability to operate effectively in a deadline-driven, multi-property environment. You are a confident and professional communicator who can build relationships across teams and work effectively with internal stakeholders, tenants, vendors, and external partners.

You are proactive, adaptable, and solutions-oriented, with the ability to identify process improvements and support system enhancements. Experience working in a system-driven environment, particularly with Yardi, is strongly preferred, along with exposure to process optimization and continuous improvement initiatives.

Why Join?

This opportunity lets you step into a leadership role on a growing real estate platform where accounting is becoming increasingly central to the business.



You will join a stable, collaborative team with low turnover and a solid focus on mentorship, CPA development, and long-term career progression.

You'll get meaningful exposure to a growing portfolio, including acquisitions and third-party management mandates, and you'll contribute to process improvements and system enhancements as the business scales. You will work closely with a supportive and engaged leadership team, with the autonomy to take ownership of your portfolio and team.
