About The Position

CLV Group is redefining what a Canadian real estate platform can be. As an integrated investor, developer, and operator, we acquire, transform, and manage real estate assets at scale. Our model combines disciplined capital allocation, bold redevelopment strategies, and operational excellence to generate durable long-term value.

We are not simply growing. We are building one of the most dynamic real estate platforms in the country.

Real estate shapes cities, communities, and lives. The spaces we create are homes, workplaces, and gathering places where life happens. That responsibility drives how we invest, build, and operate. From large scale office to residential conversions to complex mixed-use communities, we focus on unlocking potential and delivering real world impact through design, sustainability, and execution.

Our culture is rooted in passion, purpose, and a strong sense of community. We cultivate thriving environments where residents, businesses, and neighbourhoods flourish. Philanthropy and social responsibility are embedded into our DNA, ensuring that as we grow, so do the communities we serve. We want to show the world that a business can scale AND do good at the same time.

With a landmark acquisition underway and a robust national pipeline, we are expanding our footprint, deepening our capabilities, and accelerating our trajectory. This is not incremental growth. It is transformational expansion that will shape the next era of our organization and the communities we serve. For investors, we offer disciplined growth, institutional strength, and long-term value creation at scale. For exceptional talent, we offer something rare: the opportunity to help build a category defining real estate platform from the inside. This is a moment to step into complexity, drive change, and leave a lasting mark on cities across Canada.

CLV Group is seeking a highly skilled and driven professional to join our Ottawa office as a Senior Accountant. This role offers an exceptional opportunity for growth and hands-on experience in the fast-paced real estate sector.
