About the role
Building Operations and Accounting Specialist - industrial real estate
Mississauga, Ontario - onsite
$80,000-$100,000 base plus discretionary bonus and great benefits
We are currently recruiting for a Building Operations and Accounting Specialist to join a growing real estate investment company with a portfolio of industrial properties. This is a unique opportunity for someone who enjoys variety in their work and wants exposure to both financial/accounting duties and on-the-ground site operations.
The company owns and manages a portfolio of industrial buildings and operates as a tight-knit team. This role was created to support both the financial oversight of the portfolio and the day-to-day building operations. You’ll split your time between the office and the field—visiting sites, dealing with tenants, handling minor operational responsibilities, and making sure the properties are running smoothly. The rest of the time will be spent managing accounting and finance tasks like budgeting, reporting, and general ledger maintenance.
Responsibilities:
- Assist with monthly and quarterly financial reporting, including income statements and variance analysis
- Maintain general ledger, process payables and receivables, and support year-end audit preparation
- Prepare operating budgets and forecasts for the property portfolio
- Conduct regular site visits to check on property conditions and tenant needs
- Handle tenant service requests, coordinate repairs with contractors, and follow up on completion
- Monitor lease terms, rental escalations, and tenant chargebacks
- Maintain property-level documentation and assist with insurance and compliance tracking
- Work closely with ownership on both financial and operational planning
Qualifications:
- 4+ years of experience in an accounting, finance, and/or building operations
- Post-secondary education in accounting, finance, real estate, or a related field
- Comfortable working in a small team environment with a broad set of responsibilities
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple tasks independently
- A valid driver’s license and willingness to travel locally for property visits
- Experience in real estate, especially industrial properties, is an asset
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, wants to broaden their skill set, and is eager to grow with a stable and entrepreneurial real estate group.
If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please apply now. Unfortunately, due to the high volume of applicants, only those individuals chosen for interview will be contacted.
