Property Director Jobs in Quebec (NOW HIRING)

A privately held, entrepreneurial real estate organization is expanding its operations across Central and Greater Montreal, overseeing a large and actively managed residential portfolio. The business is built around a hands-on ownership model where leadership is deeply involved in day-to-day property performance, and decisions are made quickly with a strong focus on execution. Unlike large institutional property management firms with rigid structures and narrow task allocation, this is a lean, fast-moving environment where accountability is direct and impact is immediate. The team operates across the full lifecycle of property management-acquisitions support, leasing strategy, tenant experience, maintenance coordination, and ongoing value optimization-creating a highly dynamic setting where no two days look the same. This is an environment that rewards initiative, ownership, urgency, and the ability to solve problems without waiting for layers of approval.

This is an opportunity for a Property Manager to take ownership of a substantial residential portfolio ranging from approximately 500 to 1,000 units across Central and Greater Montreal. The role is designed for someone who thrives in a high-intensity, constantly evolving environment where priorities shift quickly and the ability to multitask is essential. You will be responsible for overseeing the full scope of property operations, acting as the central point of coordination between tenants, maintenance teams, leasing activity, and ownership. This is not a segmented or narrowly defined role-rather, it requires someone who is comfortable stepping into every aspect of property management as needed, from handling tenant concerns and resolving disputes to supporting leasing efforts, managing arrears, coordinating turnovers, and ensuring units are consistently brought to market efficiently. You will also play an active role in identifying operational inefficiencies, supporting light renovations or unit improvements, and ensuring occupancy and performance targets are consistently met. The ideal candidate is highly active, solutions-oriented, and comfortable being constantly on the move across multiple sites, acting as both operator and problem-solver in real time.

• Strong communication, negotiation, and interpersonal skills
• Ability to work independently with minimal structure or oversight
