Roseau Ford is building a portfolio of residential-scale senior living communities — senior coliving and cohousing — designed for upper-income residents who want connection, autonomy, and community at home. We’re a small, high-trust team at an early stage of growth, and this is a foundational role. You’ll touch every part of the business — from sourcing and underwriting acquisition targets to structuring deals with lenders, and from coordinating architects and contractors to managing resident experience and community programming. As the portfolio scales, you’ll have the opportunity to grow into the function that best fits your strengths, whether that’s on the investment and capital side or the property and community side. Both are strategic to what we’re building. You’ll work directly with the principal and senior partners across multiple projects simultaneously.

Requirements
Experience
2–5 years across real estate, property management, development, or hospitality. Direct experience building pro formas, working with lenders, or evaluating acquisition targets is a strong plus.
People skills
Warm, professional communicator. Comfortable interfacing with sellers, residents, vendors, and lenders — often in the same day. Discretion and care matter here, especially with senior residents.
Generalist mindset
Equally comfortable with a deal spreadsheet and a community calendar. Doesn’t need a narrow lane. Enjoys variety and can prioritize across competing tasks without losing things.
Self-directed
This is a remote role on a small team. You’ll need to manage your own workload, surface issues proactively, and work without close supervision most of the time.
Systems thinking
When you do a task twice, you write it down the third time. Interested in building processes, not just completing them. Comfortable with ambiguity in a growing organization.
Nice to have
Background in senior living, aging services, or community development. Familiarity with RAL-scale or residential assisted living concepts. Experience evaluating your own real estate deals or managing your own portfolio. Interest in the coliving movement.
Working at Roseau Ford
Small team, high trust, direct access to leadership. This is not a siloed role — you’ll see the full picture of how investment projects come together, from deal sourcing through resident move-in. As the portfolio grows, the natural evolution of this role is a split between the investment and capital function and the property and community function. We don’t need you to have chosen a lane yet. We value people who are honest about what they don’t know, curious enough to figure it out, and reliable enough that things don’t fall through the cracks.
