Fiera Real Estate is seeking a highly motivated and analytically strong Senior Analyst, Development to support the evaluation, underwriting, and execution of real estate development investments across multiple asset classes. The successful candidate will bring a strong foundation in real estate finance and development underwriting, with the ability to build and critically assess complex financial models, evaluate development feasibility, and synthesize technical, market, and financial inputs into clear investment recommendations.
The Senior Analyst will work closely with senior members of the Development team and internal stakeholders, contributing meaningfully throughout the full development lifecycle, from initial opportunity screening and due diligence through investment committee approval, execution, and ongoing project monitoring. This role requires sound judgment, attention to detail, and the ability to independently manage analyses while operating in a collaborative, fast-paced investment environment.

Review and evaluate development budgets, construction cost estimates, and schedules, incorporating sensitivity analyses around timing, cost escalation, absorption, and market conditions to assess project feasibility, delivery risk, and return outcomes.
Support ongoing monitoring of development projects by tracking key milestones, budget updates, and schedule changes; proactively identifying emerging risks and variances; and clearly communicating progress, issues, and potential impacts on investment performance to internal stakeholders;
Monitor, assess, and communicate policy, zoning, and regulatory developments that may affect underwriting assumptions, project feasibility, projected returns, and proactively flag risks or require adjustments to development and investment strategies;
Own preparation and coordination of Investment Committee presentations and reports for the different committees of the company.
Track performance of active development projects against underwriting assumptions;
