If you're an experienced Community Manager looking for flexibility, strong compensation, and a role where you can make an immediate impact, this opportunity is designed for you.

We're seeking a proven Community Manager (Portfolio) who brings direct HOA/community management experience and can confidently lead a portfolio of associations from day one.

If you're an experienced Community Manager ready for a role that offers more flexibility and impact, come see why we have been voted a Great Place to Work for ten years in a row and apply today.

What You'll Do

As a Community Manager, you'll own the full lifecycle of your portfolio and serve as the trusted partner to Boards and homeowners.

Key responsibilities include:

• Acting as the primary liaison to Boards of Directors and homeowners
• Leading Board meetings, preparing agendas, and ensuring timely follow-up
• Managing association operations in alignment with governing documents and management agreements
• Reviewing financials and budgets, providing insight and recommendations
• Overseeing vendors, contracts, and capital projects
• Managing compliance, collections, and risk awareness
• Conducting site inspections and maintaining community standards
• Coordinating with internal teams, including the Client Shared Service Center

Why This Role Stands Out

This position offers experienced-level compensation, true hybrid flexibility, and choice of work location, backed by a company that provides the tools and support needed to succeed.

Full time role

Address: 1921 Palomar Oaks Way, Ste. 205, Carlsbad CA 92008

Compensation: 70,304–$84,000/annually; direct experience highly considered.
