Rethink Where You’re Building Your Success

You’ve built a career in commercial real estate because you love the challenge — the relationships, the strategy, and the satisfaction of getting deals done. But even with talent and drive, it’s possible to feel constrained: limited by structure, culture, or compensation that doesn’t reflect your value.

Imagine working within a brokerage that recognizes potential, rewards performance, and gives you the space to operate at your best.

The Opportunity

My client — a respected, independent commercial real estate brokerage — is seeking motivated professionals at the junior, mid, or senior level who are ready to elevate their business in an environment built on trust, autonomy, and results.

The firm offers an 80/20 commission split, remote work option and practical infrastructure including marketing, legal, accounting, and basic signage and support. You’ll have the flexibility that enables you to perform at your highest level while maintaining balance in your life.

The Environment

This brokerage has deliberately cultivated a transparent, collegial, and low-drama culture where collaboration and professionalism thrive. The team is close-knit but not cliquish; supportive without being controlling.

At its core is a charismatic, approachable leader — someone who has built a reputation for generosity, mentorship, and integrity. The tone is confident yet humble; success is shared, and contribution is recognized.

What You’ll Find Here

• A structure that rewards output and effort, not politics.
• Freedom to define your approach — backed by resources that make execution easier.
• Genuine leadership support and mentorship without micromanagement.
• A collaborative team dynamic that values good energy and strong ethics.
• Flexibility to design your work environment and rhythm.

What You Bring

• A valid RECA license and experience in any commercial real estate discipline — office, industrial, investment, or multifamily.
• A genuine desire to build or scale your business with focus and integrity.
• Resourcefulness, curiosity, and resilience.
• The motivation to reach your full potential in an environment that rewards both effort and attitude.

If you’ve been considering a change — not because you’ve lost passion for the industry, but because you want the right platform to perform — this is worth exploring.

APPLYING YOUR BROAD CRE LEADERSHIP CAPACITY TO CREATE IMPACT

My client is a privately held, multi-entity commercial real estate and investment organization with a long-standing presence  in the CRE industry. Operating at the intersection of commercial and multifamily assets, development and mortgage investment, the organization is known for disciplined execution, entrepreneurial thinking, and relationship-driven success.

The creation of the Managing Director position, based in the company’s Edmonton headquarters, marks a pivotal step in the organization’s next phase of growth. The business has reached a stage where financial discipline, operational excellence, and people leadership must be better integrated to support sustained performance and long-term value creation.

THE OPPORTUNITY

This is a partner-led organization — successful, entrepreneurial, and values-aligned.

United by long-term intent, the ownership group recognizes that continued growth requires greater centralization of direction, pace, resources, and priorities, while carefully balancing timing, execution, capital, assets, and people.

In this context, the Managing Director becomes the organization’s integrative force — aligning strategy with execution, resources and people. Serving as the company’s financial and operational anchor across a diverse commercial real estate platform, you will act as a hands-on, visible and trusted presence within the organization, guiding teams with clarity, credibility and purpose.

WHO THRIVES IN THIS ROLE

You are a financially formidable, operationally fluent, and emotionally intelligent leader who understands that sustainable performance underpins long-term profitability and growth.

You are someone who:

• Brings senior level and deep financial acumen and commercial real estate judgment, paired with the ability to translate strategy, capital decisions and financial insight into practical, on-the-ground and operational execution.
• Has progressed and expanded beyond a finance into other strategic facets of company areas, including operations, organizational planning and people management.
• Is comfortable navigating complexity, ambiguity, and changing priorities — offering exposure  within partner-led or multi-executive, entrepreneurial environments — while maintaining clarity, composure, and forward momentum.
• Leads people with authenticity and intention, offering clear communication, providing context and direction, and creating an environment of accountability, trust, and psychological safety that champions growth and progress.
• Values well-designed systems, processes, and operating frameworks as foundational enablers of quality outcomes, consistency, and scalable growth.
• Balances decisiveness with empathy, recognizing when alignment, conversation, and influence are required before action.
• Is motivated by stewardship, long-term value creation, and the opportunity to build an organization that performs well because it is well-led.
• Leads decisively, addresses conflict constructively, and manages risk with insight — even when decisions are difficult or unpopular.
• Champions the company’s people, brand, and public presence through clear communication, diverse marketing efforts and consistent values-based behaviors.

You are not seeking a title or a platform for visibility. Rather you want to apply your special brand of purposefulness to help a company scale well. As such, you are seeking a role where your full capacity will be well utilized and respected.

What You Offer

You offer a significant  leadership and foundation in finance and operations within commercial real estate or similarly complex, asset-intensive environments is essential. Along with this you possess CFA or CA certification, a post secondary business related education, an MBA or other education or equivalent progressive CRE leadership experience.

Equally important is how you lead.

• You exercise sound judgment and emotional maturity.
• You collaborate naturally across ownership, leadership, and teams — building trust, credibility, and shared understanding.
• You are skilled at building and influencing consensus, particularly in environments where alignment must be earned rather than mandated.
• You bring structure and discipline to decision-making.
• Once decisions are made, you plan and execute with consistency — acting with accountability and understanding resource allocation and people impact.
• You understand that leadership is not only about ROI outcomes, but about how those outcomes are achieved and sustained.
• You offer a resourceful, high sense of curiosity and an authentic approach to your leadership approach.

Be Rewarded

This role offers an in-depth six-figure compensation package, inclusive of equity.

Are you a talented intermediate bookkeeper who offers administrative capacities?

Our client, a long-standing and well-respected industrial servicing business in north central Edmonton, is looking for an Office Manager who enjoys keeping things organized, accurate, and running smoothly.

This is a hands-on role that combines bookkeeping and administrative coordination, supporting a close-knit team and contributing to a culture built on trust, accountability, and pride in a job well done.

What You’ll Do

• Oversee Accounts Receivable and Payable, ensuring everything stays on track and accurate
• Handle bi-weekly payroll, reconciliations, and journal entries
• Prepare and maintain financial reports to support leadership decisions
• Manage office documentation, customer service, warranties, and safety compliance records
• Communicate with customers, vendors, and teammates to keep information flowing smoothly
• Keep systems and processes organized and efficient

Who You Are

• Experienced with QuickBooks and Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook, etc.)
• Detail-oriented, organized, and accurate — you take pride in doing things right
• Able to self-manage your work with confidence and follow-through
• Curious and open to learning new systems and processes
• A strong communicator who values collaboration, reliability, and teamwork

Why You’ll Love It Here

You’ll report to an Operations Leader who values initiative, communication, and mutual trust. The company offers stability, flexibility, and a genuinely fun, non-corporate environment where people enjoy coming to work each day.

This is a family-like atmosphere with long-term employees who support one another, celebrate wins, and take pride in keeping things running smoothly.

You’ll also enjoy:

• A competitive salary
• Health benefits and an annual health spending stipend
• Vacation plus paid time off between Christmas and New Year
• Flexible work scheduling and accommodations where needed

If you’re someone who finds satisfaction in keeping things organized and moving forward — and you value being part of a team that treats people like family — this could be a great fit.

The Fine Print

Must be legally eligible to work in Canada.

Send your resume (or a quick note to start the conversation) to Cindy Nicholls Smith, Principal — AVID EXEC Ltd. at cindy@avidexec.com.  All interest is handled with strict confidentiality in keeping with applicable laws and standards.

Apply for this Job

Lead the numbers that power places.

The Snapshot

You’re a builder of clarity. You see the story behind the statements, the timing behind the transactions, and the people behind the processes. In this role, you’ll own the accounting operations, including managing cash flow and the full accounting cadence for a commercial & multi-family real estate portfolio — guiding the day-to-day efforts and reporting so operations can move with confidence.

This is a confidential search on behalf of a privately owned company with an entrepreneurial pace and an intelligent, engaged team. You’ll partner closely with the executive, lead a small high-performing group, and bring both collaboration and autonomous leadership to the table.

Imagine Yourself Here

It’s Monday 9:00am. You’ve already scanned the weekend collections, verified key receipts, and refreshed the 13-week cash flow so Property Ops and the leadership can prioritize vendor releases and capital items. By noon, you’ve met with your team, aligned AP/AR timing with leasing realities, flagged a covenant head-room update, and cleared a construction draw with tidy backup. Month-end hits? Your team is calm because process beats panic — schedules are tight, consolidations are crisp, and variance explanations are decision-ready, not just audit-ready.

What You’ll Lead (and Improve)

Cash Flow Mastery: Daily/weekly 13-week forecasting; collections pulse; release cadence for AP; proactive lender/covenant visibility.

Receivables Discipline: Rent roll integrity, AR aging and recovery plans, move-ins/outs, security deposit handling, and applied cash accuracy.

Payables with Purpose: Clear approval matrices, vendor terms optimization, and weekly pay runs aligned to cash priorities and operational timing.

Month-End & Reporting: Full-cycle close for income properties, development, consolidations, KPIs, and reporting packs that tell the “so what.”

Property Fundamentals: CAM/tax recoveries, operating/capital budgeting, insurance and property tax workflows, financing schedules, and lender packages.

Development: Project cost tracking, draws, Work-in-Progress, holdbacks, and job-to-date reporting—enough to keep pace and manage any budget or timing surprises.

Controls & Compliance: Policies that actually get used; balance sheet hygiene; audit readiness; credit and background standards.

Systems & Data: Champion Yardi, streamline integrations, build simple dashboards in Excel.

Team Leadership: Coach and mentor a capable, compact team — clear roles, cross-training, predictable calendars, and room to grow.

Partnering Up: Be the right hand to the executive — bring options, scenarios, and straight talk.

How You Think & Operate

Resourceful by default. You don’t stall—if the answer isn’t in-house, you seek external advice (auditors, tax, lenders, tech, peers) to move things forward.

We vs. I. You model leadership vulnerability—ask the clarifying question, share context, give credit, own outcomes.

Calm under deadlines. You create rhythm (close calendars, cash huddles, lender beats) so the team isn’t living in urgency.

Builder’s mindset. Better every quarter: shorter close, cleaner schedules, fewer exceptions, clearer dashboards.

Always aware. You connect cash timing to leasing, renewals, payables, payroll, ops priorities, and tenant experience.

What You Bring

Background: Real estate (commercial/multi-family), property management, with possible exposure to development.

Technical Depth: Full-cycle accounting, consolidations, CAM/tax recs, budgeting/forecasting, lender and partner reporting.

Cash Flow Focus: Proven ownership of AP/AR timing and 13-week cash forecasting in a multi-entity environment.

Systems: Yardi (ideal) or other similar; strong Excel; bonus for use of any other reporting tools.

Leadership: Experience guiding a small team; setting standards, mentoring, and holding a kind, firm line.

Credentials: CPA preferred (not required); relevant post-secondary education, solid performance track record.

Style: Collaborative partner to executives with the confidence to work autonomously and bring solutions/ideas for improvement.

Why This Role

Impact with access. Direct line to decision-makers; your work changes daily choices on the ground.

Private & entrepreneurial. Fewer handoffs, faster cycles, less bureaucracy, clear ownership.

Recognition of your value:  Work for an owner who wants to develop mutual trust, sees your value and authentically appreciates you on a daily basis.

Compensation: Competitive six-figure package with benefits from day one, paid professional fees/licenses, parking, and thoughtful perks.

Work style: In-office, Edmonton—built for collaboration, quick problem-solving, and a supportive, family-flexible culture.

The Fine Print

Must be legally eligible to work in Canada.

Standard pre-employment checks (references, credit/security appropriate to a finance leadership role).

Interested?

Send your resume (or a quick note to start the conversation) to Cindy Nicholls Smith, Principal — AVID EXEC Ltd. at cindy@avidexec.com.  All interest is handled with strict confidentiality in keeping with applicable laws and standards.

Due to expected interest, only candidates aligning with the role requirements will be contacted. We appreciate every application and may be in touch for future opportunities.

Not the perfect résumé? We’re not looking for perfect—we’re looking for purposeful. If you bring the right foundation and leadership approach let’s talk.

BUILD LEGACY, DRIVE INNOVATION, SHAPE THE FUTURE

What if the next chapter of your career wasn’t just a job — but a chance to invent, evolve and leave behind something that matters?

My client is a growing and innovative engineering group based in Edmonton (southeast central location), with a strong focus on the energy sector, particularly in the heavy oil space — both above and below ground. The company offers an entrepreneurial, mid-sized culture that is highly multidisciplinary, bringing together some of the best talent in the industry.

THE COMPANY

· It is a place where people are not only experts in their fields but also deeply engaged in their work and genuinely enjoy collaborating with one another.

· They work in close partnership companies and universities and lead cutting-edge industry research that has the potential to be true game changers.

· Their technologies often leverage low- to medium-voltage solutions integrated with solar, wind, and electricity to deliver safer, more efficient, and more sustainable ways of doing business.

· The company operates several dedicated on-site facilities that support diverse types of research, design, and testing — giving engineers the opportunity to not only build solutions but also validate and refine them in real-world conditions.

SNAP SHOT – LEAD ELECTRICAL ENGINEER (P.Eng)

· We’re not looking for someone to simply “fill a role.” At the heart of it, you are an inventor, a collaborator, and thought leader who thrives at the intersection of autonomy, curiosity, and purpose.

· You love the joy of solving hard problems –  following the idea from inception to use.

·  You enjoy partnering with end-users, and creating sustainable technologies that will continue to evolve through your work and that of future generations.

· This role is primarily onsite, offering office and lab-based areas, offering you a balance of technical depth and professional stability.

· You are the kind of person who “tinkers”, builds, and dreams on the weekends — who believes work should be both fun and meaningful — this is your chance to shape technologies that push the industry forward toward safer, smarter, and more sustainable solutions.

· You are mid-career but feeling that you are not able to fully apply your skills and purpose or you could have 5 or so years left and want to “play” and be part of something revolutionary in a less bureaucratic more integrated environment that has a direct and collaborative pipeline to other company leaders and the President.

· Ideally you live in the Edmonton area and hold a current Professional Engineering designation and are in good standing with APEGGA.

WHY THIS ROLE DIFFERENT

Autonomy with Purpose: Freedom to innovate and push the envelope within a vertically integrated culture that values bold ideas.

Collaboration at Its Best: Work with interdisciplinary teams where every idea is valued and contributes to breakthrough outcomes.

Be Seen & Heard: Become an internal and external expert — author and present your findings, be recognized as a leader in your field.

Work Joy & Legacy: This is about building technologies that will outlast your career and set a foundation for the next generation.

Mentoring & Leadership: This role provides a clear pathway into a senior-level opportunity with succession potential. You will mentor a junior team member while also serving as a role model and resource for indirect reports. At the same time, you will receive strong support and mentorship yourself as you onboard and establish your footing in the role.

YOUR PROFILE

· You are a curious problem-solver who loves the blend of hands-on engineering and strategic big-picture thinking.

· Someone who thrives on project management from start to finish — from design to commissioning and beyond.

· You are solid communicator who possesses a strong acumen for listening, addressing challenges and engaging – always working towards building authentic and mutually-trusting partnerships with clients, leaders and your peers.

· A lifelong learner who enjoys exploring new ideas, playing with technology, and keeping fresh so your ideas stay forward-thinking.

· An individual with a wide skill set, excited by the chance to idea generate, “play”, invent, and research – creating quality, precision, and impact.

YOUR CONTRIBUTION

· Design and build medium-voltage electrical systems for next-generation downhole electric heating technologies.

· Work with, evolve and become an expert with already existing proprietary technologies.

· Program and maintain PLC and control system software that keeps operations precise and safe.

· Invent, test, commission, and troubleshoot innovative systems — and provide technical guidance to clients and field teams.

· Lead projects end-to-end, from technical proposals to QA/QC to delivery.

· Be a voice for sustainability — guiding electrification, efficiency, and safety improvements in emerging technologies.

WHY YOU WILL FIND WORK JOY

· You’ll be surrounded by like-minded multidisciplinary innovators who are just as curious, communicative, smart and inventive as you are.

· You’ll work in an environment where you are seen, recognized and where being happy at work matters — where quality, team and fun go hand-in-hand.

· You’ll have the space to continue or finish your career at the top of your game, with work that defines both your present and your legacy.

Are you someone who finds joy in clarity, order, and purpose? Do you enjoy rolling up your sleeves to make accounting processes smarter and cleaner, while working with people who actually care about what they do?

My client is a privately held, multi-company real estate group in Edmonton that operates across the Commercial, Multi-Family Rental, and Condominium sectors. This group has built its success on long-term relationships, integrity, and steady growth and they’re now looking for a Property Accountant (Edmonton, AB)  to help them take their accounting function to the next level.

This isn’t just about maintaining the books. It’s about owning the numbers, improving the process and knowing that your work matters – because it directly supports the places people live, work, and invest in.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Long-term stability with a company that’s continuing to grow
• Career progression aligned with company expansion
• Fees, licences, and ongoing professional development supported
• Company-paid, covered/underground parking
• Easy access to major transit routes
• Friendly, collaborative office where ideas and contributions are noticed
• Half-day Fridays—because life outside of work matters too

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll take the lead on full-cycle accounting for a diverse portfolio of residential, commercial, and condo properties. That includes:

• Preparing monthly financials, bank reconciliations and budget tracking
• Managing rent rolls, payables, receivables and tenant chargebacks
• Supporting budgeting for operations and capital projects
• Collaborating with property managers to align finances with real-world needs
• Refining bookkeeping processes to improve flow, accuracy and accountability
• Communicating with internal and external parties

This is an opportunity to bring order, insight, and efficiency to the numbers – making a real difference behind the scenes.

We’re Looking for Someone Who:

• Has a diploma or degree in Accounting or Finance OR proven experience in a similar property management accounting role
• Brings at least 3 years of experience in property management accounting with exposure to Condo, Rental and/or Commercial portfolios
• Is comfortable working independently with full-cycle accounting
• Is familiar and knowledgable with Excel
• Has experience with Buildium Accocunting Software (a bonus, not a must!) or offers exposure to other property accounting software
• Thrives in a collaborative, privately held company where people matter
• Enjoys being part of a team that celebrates both productivity and purpose

Ready to Take the Leap?

If you’re looking for a role where your work is valued, your ideas matter, and your contribution supports a meaningful, long-term impact – this could be your next great move. Feel free to reach out to me, Cindy Nicholls Smith, Principal at cindy@avidexec.com  or you can message me via Linked In.  I look forward to exploring this job with you.

Are you ready to embark on a rewarding journey with a growth-minded entrepreneurial commercial real estate company? Our client, a privately owned and highly respected owner/developer, is seeking a detailed and processed oriented Client Success Manager to join their engaged team located in their Edmonton (Alberta) based corporate head office. This is a career elevating opportunity for a Senior Project Coordinator or Junior Project Manager looking to develop a solid exposure in the commercial real estate space.

Unlock Your Potential   Acting on behalf of the owner with a significant focus on meeting tenant expectations, you will have the opportunity to showcase your project management fundamentals by managing project details and applying your dexterity for collaborating on a range of commercial based projects (TI/capital). You will play a pivotal role in working with various stakeholders, providing reporting and creating continuous process improvement.  Beyond this you will have responsibilities for schedule management, communication, risk mitigation, problem solving, and budget/cost controls. This company has developed a transformative and vibrant work environment and your new position offers team engagement, autonomy, trust and a clear path to further competency and career building.

Your Responsibilities Reporting to a senior leader, you will act as a valuable pivot in the tenant improvement (TI) and related projects area, working with internal teams (leasing and property management), contractors and external vendors managing the scope, processes and schedule associated with the workflow and project closeouts. Your role will call upon your exposure to CCDC contracts, capital & TI projects, documentation and reporting, design, vendor documentation management, budgeting/cost control tracking, and relationship management.

Embrace Our Unique Culture    Your new company owns, acquires and develops exceptional properties in Western Canada (namely Edmonton and Calgary areas). You thrive in a forward-thinking and client-centric company that champions a non-hierarchical, friendly culture – one that prioritizes mutual trust and employee well-being while consistently delivering outstanding results. This is a company who takes pride in its esteemed brand and reputation and they are dedicated to delivering exceptional customer service that consistently exceeds expectations.

Your Talent    Your attention to detail, organizational prowess, curious nature and ability to work with urgency make a great fit for this role. You have a keen dexterity for synthesizing and administering information and delivering clear and concise reporting. Current and past team members/peers have praised your active listening, solution-oriented and no-surprises approach. You operate from a place of “WE” versus an “I”, applying collaborative and strong critical thinking in proactively tackling unexpected challenges.  The heart of who you are is based on your inherent capacity for developing authentic, trusting and transparent relationships.

Are You the One We’re Looking For?   You possess outstanding verbal and written communication skills accompanied by strong self-motivation and self-reliance.  Boasting a solid exposure in commercial real estate and/or commercial construction, you may have played a senior project coordinator or junior project management role in construction and design and/or project management teams. This position offers a mostly in-office versus site experience.

Be Rewarded    This is a fantastic opportunity that requires a multi-talented professional who likes working with a happy and vibrant team. My client offers a very good comprehensive compensation package, including an attractive salary, bonus, benefits, ongoing education and development opportunities, coverage of association and license fees, paid parking, flexibility and so much more. Please note that this role offers you an in-office experience.

Career Progression   This position has a real opportunity for further growth and elevation. If you are enthusiastic about taking your career to the next level, I encourage you to reach out to me. Please contact me via Linked In messenger and/or send your resume, in confidence, to Cindy Nicholls Smith, CPC, MHCS, Principal, at cindy@avidexec.com.

Are you in the wrong place but the right job?

Whether you are more junior or have you’ve honed your skills, supporting and working within a team – managing your desk with your all. Despite having passion for your job and applying an all-in effort, you feel held back and just aren’t getting where you want to be.

You’ll have access to top-notch infrastructure, assistant capacity, and a strong brand that opens doors. You will have the choice to lead your own desk or be part of a team. The best part? You’ll have the freedom to operate without the red tape, in-house politics or covetous gatekeeping that has often stifled your talent, ability and earnings.

If you possess a positive mindset, motivation and resourcefulness, this opportunity may help you become an industry star. A culture that boasts low-turnover and growth, they are excited to offer you the chance to be part of a team that genuinely values positive and purposeful entrepreneurship – offering an environment that will give you the space to maneuver, succeed on your own terms and feel a sense of joy.
