The biggest decisions on a development project happen long before construction begins.

The right procurement strategy. The right building systems. The right budget. The right team.

This is an opportunity to join one of Canada's most entrepreneurial real estate development companies, with a diverse and growing portfolio spanning industrial, high-rise residential, mixed-use, commercial and hospitality developments.

You'll work closely with Development and Executive Leadership from the earliest stages of a project, helping shape budgets, design decisions, procurement strategies and construction readiness. And this isn't a role where you'll be sitting in the background waiting for a title change. The mandate is to grow into the Director, Pre-Construction role as the business and team continue to expand.

Why This Opportunity?

You'll take ownership of pre-construction across a diverse development portfolio, while helping build the processes, team and strategies that will support the company's next stage of growth.

It's a great fit for someone who is already operating at a Senior Manager level, or a solid Senior Estimator / Pre-Construction leader who is ready to step into broader leadership and fast-track their career toward a Director role.

Working from one or both of the company's offices in downtown Toronto or the west GTA, you'll join a privately owned organization where ideas are valued, bureaucracy is minimal and decisions happen quickly.

You'll Be Responsible For:

- Leading pre-construction activities across a diverse and expanding development portfolio
- Establishing project budgets from early concept through tender and buyout
- Driving estimating strategy, value engineering and cost optimization
- Advising on building systems, constructability and project delivery strategies
- Leading trade procurement, tendering and contractor selection




- Negotiating major construction contracts and commercial agreements
- Working closely with Development, consultants and project teams to improve project outcomes
- Developing and improving pre-construction processes, standards and best practices
- Building, mentoring and developing a growing pre-construction and estimating team
- Providing strategic input into project planning and delivery
- Taking on increasing leadership responsibility with a clear path to Director

You'll likely bring:

- 7+ years of experience in pre-construction, estimating or construction management
- Experience across large-scale residential, industrial, commercial, mixed-use or other complex developments
- Strong technical understanding of how buildings are designed, budgeted and constructed
- Strong commercial acumen, including budgeting, procurement and cost optimization
- Experience negotiating construction contracts and working with senior stakeholders
- The ability to move comfortably between strategic thinking and the details
- A collaborative leadership style and the ability to influence across multiple disciplines
- An entrepreneurial mindset and the ambition to grow into a Director-level leadership role

Why You'll Love It

You'll have the opportunity to work across a diverse portfolio, influence projects from the earliest stages and play a meaningful role in building out the company's pre-construction function.

Most importantly, there is a genuine, fast-track path to Director as the portfolio and organization continue to grow. If you're ambitious, entrepreneurial and ready for your next leadership opportunity, this is a chance to join a growing company before the next chapter is written — and help shape it.

If you're ready to take your pre-construction career to the next level and want a role with real autonomy, visibility and a clear path to Director, we'd love to speak with you. APPLY NOW!
