The development team at Slate Asset Management is again hiring for our Toronto office. We are looking for a coordinator to join the team and gain exposure to all aspects of our projects -- everything from acquisitions to construction and close-out.

For those of you who maybe aren't familiar with all of our projects, feel free to check out Slate's website or the "Developments" menu on this blog.

We are always open to a variety of backgrounds; however, for this role, our ideal candidate would be someone with a bit of a design and/or construction background. Though I would encourage you to apply even if you don't feel like you fit this description.

Broadly speaking, our ambition with all coordinators is to have them quickly take on more responsibility and ultimately lead a portfolio of their own development projects. If this sounds interesting to you, the best way to apply is over on LinkedIn.

Please also feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any questions about the opportunity.

Slate Asset Management is hiring.

We are looking to hire an Associate or Director to join the Development team here in our Toronto office. The full set of responsibilities can be found over here on LinkedIn, but at a high level, we are looking for someone who wants to join an entrepreneurial team and lead -- fairly independently -- a portfolio of urban infill projects.

Our approach to development really stems from the broader Slate platform. We are bold and thematic investors who work to create long-term value for our investors and partners. From a development perspective, that translates into an unwavering commitment to design & culture, innovation, and disciplined project execution.

We pride ourselves on working alongside the world's best architects and designers, and uncovering opportunities that others may be overlooking. We are proactive and hands-on in everything that we do. We also feel an inherent sense of responsibility for the buildings that we create and we want the work that we do to help improve our cities. We stand behind our product.

If this sounds like a mission that you can get behind, then I would encourage you to learn more about us at slateam.com and submit an application via LinkedIn. Please note that we are also asking candidates to introduce themselves through a short video.

We are looking to hire a Project Coordinator to join the Development team here at Slate Asset Management in our Toronto office.

This is an ideal position for someone who is passionate about development and cities; who wants to be part of an entrepreneurial and growing team; and who is able to be hands on and take ownership over what they do.

The Project Coordinator would work closely with the full Development team and support all aspects of project delivery from acquisition to exit/stabilization. Eventually, we want this person to lead a portfolio of their own development projects.

We're looking for someone with the following skills and characteristics:

• Demonstrated passion for city building, design, and urban affairs

• Experience in real estate and/or development

• Understanding of planning & land use policies, development finance, and design & construction (though, the right attitude and work ethic goes a long way)

• High energy, with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced entrepreneurial environment while at the same time being extremely detail oriented

• Strong communication skills, both written and verbal (well-reasoned opinions are crucial)

• Proficiency in Excel, SketchUp, CAD/Revit and other relevant software considered an asset

• Degree(s) in related field(s)

If you're interested after reading all of this, please send your resume and cover letter to brandon@slateam.com. Your short cover letter should include why you want to work at Slate, as well as your favorite recent development project (it can be anywhere in the world but make sure to include why).

Alongside this, we would like to see a link/URL that helps us get to know you better. This could be your Twitter or Instagram, a personal blog, a portfolio, or something else that represents who you are. If you don't have any of these, well then you'll have to get creative.

Thanks for your interest.
