  • Alongside the Development Manager, develop the project budget and cash flow. Upon commencement of construction activities, manage the project budget and ensure we meet our financial and profitability commitments.
  • Alongside the General Contracting partner, drive the procurement process for all wood-framed apartments and multi-family buildings within the region.
  • Act as the primary point of contact for all stakeholders including internal team members, executives, consultants, local authorities, and the general contracting partner.
  • With the support of your project coordinator(s), draft and circulate weekly & monthly project reports, and hold quarterly executive updates on all active, in-field apartment projects.
