About The Company

The company is an ImpactAssets50 manager and Certified B Corp company.

The company is a multi-fund impact investment fund manager dedicated to creating lasting benefits for communities across Canada. Their mission is to deliver investment opportunities, in the form of equity and loans, that generate financial, social and environmental returns. They focus on community real estate development and lending, supporting projects with non-profit, co-operative, and social enterprises.

The company envisions a market where investment capital creates value that includes clear social and environmental outcomes alongside financial returns. We do this by living our values in our work every day. They are guided by their principles of building strong communities, fostering an inclusive and supportive workplace where everyone feels welcomed and empowered, and building a lasting impact legacy.

The platform includes a non-profit Real Estate Developer that works to create affordable housing and other real estate assets in partnership with the local community, and a Housing Trust, which owns and operates affordable housing assets. They support the full lifecycle of community real estate projects, from development through to long-term ownership and operations.

About the Position
