Real Estate Operations

About the Company

Faraday Norton is a dynamic, privately held investment group with a diversified portfolio across various industries and geographic regions. As part of our continued growth, we are looking for a Real Estate Operations & Development Manager to lead the growth, organization, and strategic rollout of our proptech ventures.

About the Role

This is a cross-functional leadership role that blends real estate expertise, operational management, financial acumen, and product insight.

You will leverage deep market knowledge to originate and evaluate investment-grade opportunities, working with agencies, developers, and investment partners, and ensure they are structured and presented in a way that attracts and serves investors on our platforms.

Operationally, you will build the organizational backbone of our ventures — designing processes, reporting frameworks, and KPIs that allow us to scale efficiently while ensuring smooth coordination across management, technology, partners, and investors.

A core part of your role will also be to support fundraising for real estate investments offered through the platforms. This includes preparing business plans, financial models, and investor materials; coordinating communication with stakeholders; and ensuring compliance and alignment with regulatory frameworks in different jurisdictions, including communication with regulators where required.

Finally, you will act as the bridge between business and technology, guiding the development team on product features, workflows, and user experience, ensuring the platforms are intuitive, competitive, and aligned with market needs.

This is a role for someone who wants to take ownership of initiatives end-to-end: sourcing opportunities, structuring investments, building scalable operations, and shaping product direction.
