Founders Properties is pleased to congratulate Janet Ost on her retirement.

After 38 years in finance and commercial real estate, Janet announced her planned retirement earlier this year and began a leadership transition process that has now concluded.

“On behalf of the Founders team, I want to congratulate Janet on a distinguished career in finance and commercial real estate,” said Wade Lau, president and CEO of Founders Properties. “As our finance and administration leader, Janet has contributed a great deal to the success of Founders.”

At Founders Properties, Janet led business management and reporting for the various entities managed by the firm. Before joining Founders Properties, Janet held several roles with Opus. She worked in financial reporting, supervising, auditing and tax preparation, and then as Controller for Opus Properties. Janet also worked in auditing at Arthur Anderson.

“We’re grateful to Janet for her leadership and innumerable contributions,” said Lau. “The workplace culture she helped cultivate at Founders will continue to flourish as she moves on and enjoys this next chapter.”

Jason Faith is now leading Founder’s finance and accounting teams and contributing to the leadership team’s focus on growth and serving investors.
