Canadian private equity real estate manager with $18B AUM across six strategies
KingSett Capital is a Toronto-based real estate PE firm managing $18 billion across growth, income, urban, mortgage, residential development, and affordable housing strategies. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward Excel, Power Query, Python, R, and BI tools (Power BI, Tableau), reflecting a data-driven but spreadsheet-dependent operation — hiring is concentrated in senior and director roles across construction, finance, and development, suggesting a push to automate financial modeling and investor reporting rather than expand headcount.
