Lead the Turnaround.
Restore Stability.

Hickory Hills is undergoing a full operational reset, and were seeking an experienced, hands-on Property Manager to lead the transformation.
This is not a traditional property management role.
We need a decisive leader who can quickly establish structure and accountability, improve collections and occupancy, restore property conditions, and build sustainable operations that strengthen the community and increase NOI.
What Youll Do
- Take ownership of day-to-day property operations and establish clear standards and accountability
- Aggressively address delinquency and aged receivables while managing lawful eviction processes when necessary
- Rebuild occupancy through effective leasing, renewals, resident screening, and local marketing
- Enforce lease terms, company policies, and community standards consistently and fairly
- Lead maintenance staff, vendors, contractors, work orders, and unit make-readies
- Conduct regular property inspections and prioritize safety issues and deferred maintenance
- Maintain accurate resident ledgers, unit availability, leasing activity, and documentation
- Manage operating expenses and track collections, occupancy, and property performance
- Utilize Entrata for leasing, accounting, work orders, documentation, and reporting
- Partner closely with ownership and corporate leadership to improve operational and financial performance
What You Bring
- 5+ years of multifamily property management experience
- Proven success stabilizing distressed or underperforming properties
- Strong experience with collections, delinquency management, and evictions
- Experience overseeing maintenance, vendors, repairs, and capital projects
- Proficiency with Entrata, Yardi, RealPage, or a comparable PMS
- Knowledge of Fair Housing and landlord-tenant laws
- Strong leadership, organization, and conflict-resolution skills
- Ability to work independently, make difficult decisions, and drive results
- High school diploma or equivalent
- Preferred: Experience with value-add, repositioning, workforce housing, or Class B/C communities. Bilingual English/Spanish is a plus.
What Success Looks Like
Within this role, youll be expected to deliver measurable improvement in delinquency, collections, qualified occupancy, unit readiness, property condition, expense control, and NOI while creating a more structured, professional, and stable community.
If youre a hands-on multifamily leader who thrives in turnaround environments and is ready to make an immediate impact, we want to hear from you.
