This is a high-visibility role for someone early in their career who wants to develop deep FP&A; expertise within a sophisticated real estate investment platform.

Experience in the real estate industry is a strong asset.

- Support the monthly and quarterly close processes, ensuring timely and accurate financial reporting across the portfolio.
- Develop, maintain, and continuously enhance financial models, rolling forecasts, and long-range plans across the Canadian multi-family portfolio.

- Identify areas where actions/accountability are required to improve financial performance and deliver key initiatives
- Streamline and automate reporting workflows, reducing manual effort and improving the speed and reliability of financial outputs.
- Enable business partners to self-serve on BI tools — building financial literacy and data accessibility across the organization.

AI & Change Management:

- Proactively identify opportunities to integrate AI tools and automation into FP&A; processes — from modelling and forecasting to reporting and data management.
- Pilot and implement AI-assisted workflows, bringing a continuous improvement mindset to how the finance function operates.
- Partner with data and technology teams to build scalable, forward-looking analytical infrastructure that keeps Starlight ahead of the curve.

Requirements

- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field; CPA or CFA designation (or active pursuit) is a plus.
- 1 – 3 years of experience in FP&A;, financial analysis, or investment analytics — real estate or asset management experience is a robust advantage.
- Elite Excel skills: you build models from scratch, stress-test assumptions, and automate workflows without being asked.
- Solid grasp of real estate and investment finance concepts — NOI, IRR, cap rates, DCF, leverage, asset-level vs. portfolio-level performance.
- Experience with Power BI or similar BI tools; comfort working with large datasets and imperfect data.
- Genuinely excited about AI and automation — you’ve already started experimenting and can’t stop thinking about what’s possible.
- Clear, confident communicator who can present financial insights to senior stakeholders and investment professionals with conviction.
- High-energy, detail-obsessed, and motivated by the fast pace of a growing investment platform. You bring a builder’s mindset and aren’t afraid of extra innings when the work matters.
