Development Coordinator

Victoria, BC, CA, Canada

Job Description

Do you want to watch your community change, or do you want to be the one to shape it?

Because we're hoping you're here for the latter. Join Aryze as a Development Coordinator.

Why Aryze?



Building communities is about more than simply building homes. That's why we foster a strong vision for what a city can be--and act on it.

As a certified B Corp, we meet rigorous standards for creating positive impact--through how we govern, support our team, engage with communities and care for the environment. Recognized nationally for our innovative approach to development, Aryze is a dedicated team of home builders, urban planners and urbanists, all deeply committed to increasing the quality of communities across Greater Victoria and beyond. This approach has resulted in award-winning projects like: Pearl Block--missing middle townhomes on a challenging triangular lot; Rotunda--architecturally-significant condos in a neighbourhood with room to grow; and Tiny Homes--transitional housing units built from repurposed shipping containers for some of our community's most vulnerable.

If you thrive in a collaborative environment where your ideas matter, join our growing team. Together, we're city-building for the better.

Who are we?



We are a local Victoria-based group of next-generation leaders trying to build homes, but really, we like to think of ourselves as entrepreneurs with an underlying goal of building better communities. What began with building a swim dock and a floating tree in the Gorge Waterway (and engaging in a political conversation or two) has grown into a mission: to demystify and disrupt the real estate industry by making room for more housing in Victoria neighbourhoods with room to grow.We believe that every neighbourhood should have diverse housing types and tenures for all incomes and demographics. A densified, compact, walkable lifestyle is critical to solving our climate and housing crisis; all while creating more livable and healthier communities.

While we bring a number of innovative infill development projects to market, Aryze's earliest roots are in quality and unique construction. Our focus to build with the highest standards of craft, design and efficiency has distinguished our homes from others on the block.

Who are you?



You have a passion for taking on challenging projects that are unique, sometimes a bit weird, and delivered in an entrepreneurial environment where excellence is expected. You are the ultimate planner and coordinator and are an excellent communicator. You have a serious passion for shaping the community that you live in and its built environment. You have a lot of integrity and honesty, and understand that we are a business that thrives on executing the most innovative and challenging plans and bringing them to market. Most of all, you want to do it in a place where you're more than an employee number; a place you love working.

Still here? Good. Because if this resonates with you, we'd love to hear about it in your cover letter.
