Senior Property Administrator

The opportunity: Fitzrovia is seeking a Senior Property Administrator to own tenant ledger, rent roll, and lease administration for a defined portfolio of buildings across Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia. This is a centralized, back-office role that partners closely with on-site General/Property Managers and leasing teams.

Reporting to the Property/Asset Management leadership team, the Senior Property Administrator will provide tenant ledger, rent roll, and lease administration support across the assigned portfolio, ensuring that tenant accounts, notices, and other centralized functions are managed consistently, accurately, effectively, and in full compliance with applicable tenancy legislation in each province. The role is well suited to a detail-oriented, process-driven professional with a strong accounting and administrative foundation who is comfortable managing a high volume of transactional work across multiple jurisdictions.

At Fitzrovia, we pride ourselves on being an entrepreneurial and innovative organization. This role is well suited for a candidate who enjoys building consistent processes out of previously fragmented, site-level work, and who is comfortable being a centralized point of accountability for a defined group of buildings.

As we are a highly collaborative team, the successful candidate will be required to work in-office full-time.

This posting is for an existing vacancy. The salary range for this position is $65,000 - $75,000. Our total rewards program recognizes performance, supports well-being, and encourages growth by offering paid vacation and personal days, comprehensive benefits, wellness and mental health resources, and a generous professional development allowance.

• Conduct periodic tenant record audits (contact information, occupancy status, unit details) to ensure data integrity beyond financial fields.

Move-In & Move-Out Administration

• Manage the posting of all property charges related to move-ins and move-outs.
• Administer rentable items, including setup, billing, and ongoing charge accuracy.

• Monitor utility accounts for vacant/unoccupied units to ensure timely activation, transfer, and closure of service and avoid unnecessary charges.

Lease Renewals, Statutory Notices & Board Orders

• Process lease renewals and prepare associated renewal documentation.
• Prepare and track Ontario notices, including N1 (rent increase) and N2 (renewal) forms, and manage N4 (arrears) notices through to task completion.
• Prepare and issue eviction-related notices and Board applications (e.g., L1/L2 filings) where arrears or lease breaches remain unresolved.
• Prepare and track the equivalent provincial notices and forms required under Quebec's Tribunal administratif du logement (TAL) and British Columbia's Residential Tenancy Branch (RTB) for renewals, rent increases, arrears, and evictions.
• Process Landlord and Tenant Board (and equivalent TAL/RTB) orders and apply the resulting account and ledger adjustments.
• Track and manage arrears and discrepancy (A&D) items through to resolution.

Accounts Receivable, Collections & Reporting

• Issue tenant account statements and proactively follow up on overdue balances to reduce arrears aging across the assigned portfolio.
• Analyze aged receivables (30/60/90+ day buckets) and prioritize collection and follow-up actions accordingly.
• Prepare and distribute a weekly accounts receivable/arrears status report to Property/Asset Management leadership and on-site teams.

Deposits, Refunds & Payment Processing

Cross-Portfolio & Team Collaboration

• Partner closely with on-site General/Property Managers and leasing teams across the assigned building portfolio to ensure consistent, centralized processes.
• Serve as the go-to resource for on-site teams' Yardi and lease-administration process questions, reducing reliance on Property Managers/Assistant Property Managers for day-to-day system troubleshooting.
• Escalate complex ledger, compliance, or tenancy matters to the Property/Asset Management leadership team as required.
• Support the standardization of tenant ledger and lease administration processes as the centralized function matures.
• Execute other administrative duties as required to ensure efficient operation of the centralized function.

• Working knowledge of Ontario's Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) processes and forms; knowledge of Quebec's Tribunal administratif du logement (TAL) and/or British Columbia's Residential Tenancy Branch (RTB) is a strong asset.
• Strong administrative background with excellent attention to detail and organizational skills.
• Advanced, hands-on proficiency in Yardi is mandatory - the candidate must be able to independently manage rent roll audits, charge postings, notices, deposits, and reporting in Yardi without on-site support.
• RPA (Real Property Administrator), FMA, or a similar industry designation (e.g., BOMI) is an asset.
• Bilingual (English/French) is an asset given coverage of the Quebec portfolio.
• Strong Excel skills and comfort working across multiple systems and reporting tools.
