Job description

Brisbane CBD | 9-day fortnight | WFH flexibility | Salary + additionals

If you’ve built your experience as a Strata Assistant and are ready to manage your own portfolio, this opportunity offers the progression, support and flexibility to make that next move worthwhile.

We’re partnering with a leading strata organisation to find an experienced Assistant ready to move into management in Brisbane CBD. You’ll join a close-knit team with the training and resources of an established business behind you.

You’ll start with a manageable portfolio, with an approachable Branch Manager and experienced colleagues to guide you through new situations and help you build confidence managing your own schemes.

Whats on offer

• Progression into management: Take ownership of your own portfolio and build on the experience you’ve gained as an Assistant.

• A 9-day fortnight: A regular extra day off, giving you more time outside work.

• WFH flexibility: A mix of home and office working.

• Salary plus additionals: The opportunity to earn beyond your base salary.

• Strong training and guidance: Support from an experienced Branch Manager and team as you settle into management.

• A manageable starting portfolio: Room to get to know your schemes and develop your capability.

• An established business with a boutique feel: Broader resources and expertise, alongside a close-knit local team.

The role

You’ll become the main contact for your committees and owners, taking responsibility for the day-to-day management of your schemes. Your work will include:

• Managing the day-to-day requirements of your portfolio

• Building strong relationships with committees and owners

• Preparing for and chairing meetings

• Coordinating maintenance and following up contractors

• Assisting with budgets and financial matters

• Providing practical advice and clear communication

• Keeping records, correspondence and workflows organised

• Developing your knowledge of Queensland body corporate legislation

About you

You’ll have experience as an Assistant Strata or Body Corporate Manager, with a sound understanding of how a portfolio operates and a desire to move into management.

You may already be handling committee enquiries, preparing meeting documentation, coordinating repairs or taking responsibility for matters on your manager’s behalf. Meeting attendance and direct committee contact will be particularly valuable.

You’ll bring strong organisation, clear communication and confidence dealing with people, along with the willingness to learn and seek guidance when needed. Previous experience managing your own portfolio isn’t required.
