Job description

Rivers Retreats Properties is hiring a hands-on Assistant Property Manager to help manage the daily operations of our 27 short-term rental properties across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. This is a field-based role, and you must have a reliable vehicle and the ability to drive to multiple cities in a day.

Starting Salary: $40,000/year + $3,000 retention bonus after 12 months

Responsibilities:

1. Visit properties after guest checkouts to diagnose visible issues, damages, and overall property condition.
2. Coordinate and schedule repairs, maintenance, and turnovers with cleaners and vendors.
3. Ensure properties are consistently hitting 75%+ occupancy rates.
4. Review pricing tools and ensure revenue goals are being met by confirming dynamic pricing is accurately set.
5. Step in to resolve guest escalations when needed, working closely with the virtual assistant (VA) communications team.
6. Maintain properties in mint condition and ensure all standards of presentation and functionality are met before guest check-ins.
7. Track and document field issues, communicate with operations team and CEO as needed.
8. Support in implementing new systems and procedures as the business continues to scale.

Qualifications:

1. Minimum 1 year of experience in property management required. Short-term rental experience is a strong plus.
2. Must have a reliable vehicle and valid driver’s license. Frequent driving to multiple cities is required.
3. Must be willing to take a drug test before hiring.
4. Excellent communication and problem-solving skills.
5. Ability to multitask, work under pressure, and think fast when things go wrong.
6. Experience using property management software, pricing tools, and messaging platforms is preferred.
7. Detail-oriented and capable of managing checklists, coordinating vendors, and keeping properties guest-ready at all times.
8. Comfortable being on the phone or managing issues for 6–7 hours a day when needed—this is not a desk job.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, on-the-ground environment and is ready to grow within a rapidly scaling STR company.

If you’re highly organized, solution-oriented, and committed to keeping properties in top shape and guests happy, we’d love to hear from you.
