Senior Asset Manager

Senior Asset Manager

Rex is seeking a Senior Asset Manager to architect and enforce excellence across a scaling portfolio of multifamily assets. This mandate is for a top one-percent performer who looks, acts, and communicates as a fiduciary while operating with the hardcore intensity of a competitive athlete. You will own the performance of 2,000+ units, scaling that engine to 30,000+ units through disciplined execution and sharp commercial instincts. This is an execution-driven builder role for someone who thrives in bringing order to chaos. You will command respect from property management teams and external partners, holding them to board-level discipline through rigorous, data-driven oversight. You must be AI-fluent, leveraging emerging technology to drive operational efficiency and identify financial outliers. Your functional muscle includes experience in structured finance, with a proven record of placing agency debt and negotiating complex loan workouts. You are a front-line closer with the gravitas to sell Rex's management services to ultra-high-net-worth investors and family offices. You must combine scrappy, zero-to-one hustle with the sophisticated communication skills required to navigate high-stakes lender negotiations. We need a hard-charging executor who is firm yet respectful, a watchdog who inspires excellence while maintaining the missionary fire required to build a multi-generational enterprise. Must be missionary to the bone, obsessed with the stewardship of investor trust and deeply passionate about catalyzing human flourishing through the built environment. Fully remote, with a strong preference for Austin as a home base.

About the Role

This role exists to build and run an institutional-grade asset management function across a fast-scaling multifamily portfolio. You will own the operating and financial performance of 2,000+ units today and help scale that engine to 30,000+ units over time. The mandate is simple: protect investor capital, drive NOI growth, enforce discipline, and create a portfolio that performs under pressure. You will own asset-level business plans, portfolio performance, lender strategy, and third-party management accountability. You will operate at the center of acquisitions, finance, property management, capital partners, and leadership. You will set the standard for how Rex underwrites decisions, measures performance, escalates issues, and turns fragmented information into clear action. You will build the systems, reporting cadence, and decision-making infrastructure required to bring order to chaos. That includes enforcing board-level rigor across property operations, identifying financial outliers before they become problems, and using AI and emerging technology to increase speed, accuracy, and operating leverage. You will also step into the field as a commercial operator, helping win and retain investor relationships by demonstrating sharp judgment, credibility, and command of the business. This role is for a rare operator who combines fiduciary judgment, structured finance depth, commercial edge, and athletic intensity. You must be able to push hard without losing trust, drive accountability without creating drag, and represent Rex with sophistication in rooms that matter. This is high-stakes work tied directly to investor outcomes, platform credibility, and long-term enterprise value. Must be missionary to the bone.
