Rohit Group is a fully diversified Canadian real estate development and investment organization with more than $1.3 billion in assets under management and annual revenue above $500 million. We deliver homes, serviced lots, rental communities, commercial assets and infrastructure across Canada, and we are building the operating capacity to more than double our assets under management by 2032.

You will lead the Accounting framework and sponsor transformation and productivity improvements while partnering closely with the Financial Reporting Manager, who leads close execution and reporting delivery.

You will also partner with the Director of Tax Planning, who owns long-term tax strategy; the Transformation Controller, who leads the Accounting Continuous Improvement team and reports to the Director of Accounting; and the FP&A; Lead, who reports to the Director of Accounting.
