Community Manager
Full Job Posting
What the work involves
The role blends financial management with people leadership. You will manage collections, including the difficult conversations that come with them, handled respectfully and in full compliance with the law. You will drive occupancy and leasing, and you will oversee the resident home-sale process - when residents sell their own homes, you approve the incoming applicant, which makes you a gatekeeper for who joins the community. [At Selling Community Manager communities, you will also personally sell a limited number of homes and earn commission on each sale.] You will manage contractors for landscaping, maintenance, and home rehabs, and set the standard for quality. You will lead a small team through busy seasons and slow ones. And you will be the person residents actually know - the one they come to when they are moving in, and the one they come to when they are having a hard month.
Our hiring process includes two Zoom conversations, typically completed within two weeks of applying.
What you'll own
Community financial performance: budget, expense management, and net operating income
Collections: accurate billing, on-time rent, and all legal notices executed in compliance with state law and Fair Housing standards
Occupancy and leasing: rentals, renewals, and approval of incoming residents in the resident home-sale (FSBO) process [Selling CM postings: plus direct home sales with commission]
A small on-site team: hiring, developing, and leading day-to-day
Vendor and contractor relationships across landscaping, maintenance, and home rehabs
Curb appeal, amenities, safety standards, and capital projects delivered on time and on budget
Resident relationships: issues resolved with urgency and care, renewals earned, and a community people are proud to call home
Backgrounds we welcome
Our Community Managers come from a range of backgrounds: property management, sales, the trades, retail and restaurant leadership, small business ownership, and the military. Common threads among them:
A track record of commitment - a sustained run with one employer, or something you built and stayed with
Sales or customer-facing experience where your results were measured
Experience running an operation: a business, a store, a crew, or a budget
Comfort working with maintenance and construction trades
Property management experience is welcome but not required. A college degree is not required.
If your background isn't listed here but the work described above sounds like you, apply anyway - this list describes common paths, not requirements.
Requirements
- High school diploma or GED
- Valid driver's license with a clean record; ability to pass a criminal background check
- Physically able to walk the community daily and occasionally lift materials and supplies
- On-site role
- When you apply, please list each role separately, including promotions at the same company, with the employer’s name and the month and year you started and ended. It helps us review your application quickly and accurately.
