Housekeeping Supervisor

Housekeeping Supervisor I

At Placemakr, home meets hospitality. We've combined the best of apartment living, vacation rentals, and hotel stays into one experience. We partner with developers, property operators, and investors to curate a collection of apartment-like spaces in hand-picked neighborhoods. Our tech-enabled buildings create one-of-a-kind guest experiences and add tremendous value to the underlying real estate. Whether guests are with us for a night, a year, or somewhere in between, these are more than just spaces to spend the night — they're a place to call home. Our property team members help our buildings thrive by focusing on execution and ensuring a great experience for both residents and guests. Our non-property team members support property execution and the evolution of other areas within our platform. They can enjoy remote-first work with the freedom to choose their location — as long as they have access to a workspace and reliable Wi-Fi. We believe collaboration is key, so our remote-first teams and property leaders have biannual in-person get-togethers at various locations across the US. From corporate non-property team members to our property teams and leaders, we're looking for collaborative, driven individuals to join us as we continue to expand our presence.

As a core member of our on-site property team and a future leader at Placemakr, you'll help set the standard, balancing strong processes with a bit of flexibility, because no two days are the same (which is how we like it!).
