Our goal is to create inclusive communities where homeownership is accessible for all, and everyone has the opportunity to build a stable, fulfilling future. At LandSeed, we create solutions for the Canadian housing crisis by collaborating with communities and industry partners to identify barriers and create real pathways to homeownership.

    • Skilled in workflow design, task management systems, and cross-functional coordination.
    • Familiarity with automations, custom views, dashboards, and permissions settings.
