About Us
Acadia Realty Trust is committed to attracting, hiring and retaining a diverse team of top talent who share our core values and commitment to our business. Our culture is one that fosters dedication, team building, individual commitment, positive attitude, teamwork, personal growth, and fun to create a respectful workplace where our associates are treated fairly and are highly motivated to succeed. Our commitment to encourage and support the success of each associate makes Acadia an exciting place to build a career. As we continue to grow our business, we invite you to learn more about the opportunities to become a part of our incredible team.

Our Culture. Our approach to business and organization are different from that of many companies. Here are a few areas where we stand apart:

We trust people. We believe that, given the opportunity, ordinary people can accomplish extraordinary things. We give our associates the authority to make decisions, provide them with the appropriate level of training and oversight, and expect in return their personal accountability for results. This level of decentralization gives our organization unusual vitality and an ability to "get the job done" quickly and efficiently while also giving our associates an extraordinary level of independence.

We flex to support success. We don't mandate organizational constructs; instead we design structures that enable individuals and teams to make the greatest possible contributions.

We work as one. Although each division is accountable for its success, all Acadia associates are focused on the success of the corporation. We leverage knowledge sharing across businesses and borders, and promote solutions that will benefit Acadia as a whole.

We have a lean and efficient corporate core. Our Associates spend their time identifying and sharing best practices across the company. Their aim is to offer direction, not restriction; facilitate knowledge transfer throughout Acadia; and measure their contribution in the cross-company synergies they create.

EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
Acadia embraces diversity and is committed to providing equal employment opportunities for training, compensation, transfer, promotion and other aspects of employment for all qualified applicants and employees without regard to sex, race, color, religion, national origin, age, disability, or sexual orientation.
