Your Impact at Precedent Land Company

At Precedent Land Company, we seek enthusiastic professionals who are excited to harness the potential of land and deliver outstanding results.

As Director, Land Development, you will manage the planning, engineering, and permit coordination process for land development projects. You’ll lead a team responsible for site planning, engineering criteria, and project delivery, ensuring alignment with Empire home building practices. Your role will be pivotal in communicating progress to senior leadership, maintaining project tracking, and supporting feasibility, visioning, entitlements, and construction management. This position offers unlimited growth potential within the company.

This role is based in Vaughan, Ontario, with regular travel to project sites and meetings with municipal partners.

What We Are Looking For

In addition to your expertise in land acquisition and development, here’s what we’d love to see :

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Urban Planning, Real Estate, or a similar field.
  • Minimum of 7–10 years of land development project management experience within the low‑rise homebuilding construction industry.
  • Ability to read, understand, and evaluate civil engineering / development plans. Solid experience in site engineering (water, wastewater, lift stations / FMs, drainage design). Thorough knowledge of municipal and provincial review processes for permitting and approvals.

You’ll Stand Out if You Bring

  • Demonstrated ability to manage large‑scale projects from inception to completion, ensuring timelines and budgets are met.
  • Strong budget management and estimating skills.
  • Collaborative attitude with strong people management and coaching skills.
  • Professional attitude and communication skills (written and oral).
  • Advanced skills in Word and Excel.
  • Experience adapting to multiple working and learning styles.
  • The Precedent Land Company Experience

  • The opportunity to collaborate with other skilled and visionary professionals.
  • Exclusive discounts through our Employee Home Ownership Program.
  • Support for your wellbeing through our employer‑paid benefits.
  • A flexible, hybrid work model.
  • Employer sponsored RRSP to help you invest in your future.
  • Ongoing support for continuing education and opportunities for learning and development to help you grow your career.
  • Organic Produce from our Community Supported Agriculture Program.
  • Engaging social events throughout the year to celebrate our team.
  • Recognition of achievements and milestones every step of the way.
  • A company that values your time outside of work just as much as your time spent at work.
  • What You’ll Be Doing Each Day

  • Lead multiple projects and Project Managers, effectively multi‑tasking across internal departments and external stakeholders.
  • Negotiate and manage budgets, ensuring financial performance objectives are achieved for each project.
  • Oversee project visioning exercises to align future land holdings with market demand, collaborating with senior team members.
  • Responsible for land planning criteria, plan review, quality control, and value engineering of civil engineering plans to achieve lot deliveries.
  • Track progress / status of development projects and provide updated reports related to site planning, civil plan preparation, contractor bid documents, and land disturbance permitting.
  • Who We Are

    At Precedent Land Company, we believe that imagination unlocks opportunity and brings land to life. Through our experience and creativity, we design innovative residential investment solutions that maximize land potential and transform lives. Our forward‑thinking approach prioritizes sustainability and responsible stewardship, enabling us to build imaginative land‑use solutions.
