Job Description

Assistant Community Manager
St. Louis, MO
$30+ / hour

OVERVIEW
A large, 700+ unit market-rate community in St. Louis is looking for an Assistant Community Manager who can operate at scale. This isn't a small-property role — the volume of leasing, renewals, and day-to-day resident issues on a community this size calls for someone who's already worked at that scale and knows how to keep things running smoothly under real volume.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Support the Community Manager in running daily operations across a 700+ unit community
• Handle high-volume leasing activity — applications, screening, lease paperwork, move-ins
• Process lease renewals and help drive resident retention at scale
• Assist with budget tracking, rent collection, and monthly financial reporting
• Help manage delinquency and follow through on collections
• Coordinate with maintenance on service requests, unit turns, and make-ready timelines
• Step in for the Community Manager on operational decisions when needed
• Support marketing and occupancy strategy across a large unit count
• Handle resident concerns promptly and keep documentation organized and audit-ready

WHY YOU MATTER
On a community this size, small breakdowns in process show up fast — in unanswered leads, slow turns, or renewals that fall through the cracks. You're the person keeping the day-to-day machine running.

WHAT IT TAKES

• 3-5+ years of property management experience, ideally at a large community (500+ units)
• Comfortable managing high volume without losing attention to detail
• Solid grasp of leasing, renewals, and resident retention strategy
• Familiar with property management software (Yardi, OneSite, RealPage, or similar)
• Strong organizational skills — this role juggles a lot at once
• Clear communicator, with residents, vendors, and the team alike
• Comfortable stepping into a leadership role when the Community Manager isn't available
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation

THE PERKS!

• $30+/hour
• BCBS health, dental, and vision
• 401(k)
• 10 paid holidays plus 1 floating holiday, PTO
• $2,500 education assistance
