Property Manager

Property Management company seeks an experienced and energetic Property Manager for a 320-unit garden-style community in Beltsville, Maryland. The Property Manager is responsible for implementation and oversight of the property’s management plan.

What would make you a great fit for this position?

You need to be able to coach the onsite team so that each member clearly understands what they need to accomplish daily to succeed in their roles and to provide the oversight and leadership to bring out the best from each employee. Team members bring individual strengths and opportunities for professional growth. The manager’s job is to create a safe and honest working environment where goals are clearly set, tools and resources needed to accomplish these are provided, performance is monitored, and feedback is given on a regular basis. Strong daily communication with your full team is paramount to achieving this.

As a successful Property Manager, you would come to this position with strong working knowledge of maintenance, leasing and collections and resident retention operations, all delivered with a proactive customer service focus that balances the property’s operations with creating the best experiences for our current and prospective residents.

Daily operations in property management combine scheduled tasks with unexpected issues that require immediate attention. You must be well organized to keep items from falling through the cracks. You have a strong personal time and task management system that allows you to track, prioritize and delegate efficiently to make sure that at the end of each day all critical items have been addressed without losing sight of the non-critical items that remain vital to successful property operations.

Finally, you should be the kind of active problem solver who looks past the immediate solution to an issue to uncover the root causes of challenges, discovering long lasting solutions.

By your side you will have a team of professionals to support you and your success in this role, including your immediate supervisor, the vice president of property management.
