You will play a key supporting role in the company’s portfolio expansion, successfully transitioning new assets from other management companies to GI Property Management, assisting and supporting the operations and financial responsibilities of the properties within the portfolio, providing various financial reports and accruals, reforecasts, budgeting and operating expense reconciliations.

Key to Success

To excel in this role, you will need to have an outstanding ability to work under pressure and shift priorities quickly, depending on the current needs of the business. Our clients have very high expectations -- a simple power outage can turn into a substantial cost for them or us. As the face of both property operations and technical operations, you will need to maintain a thick skin while at the same time remaining service and customer focused.

This is a fast-paced environment where you may be called upon to produce a report or work on a new task with a tight deadline, but we are looking for a professional who excels in this type of environment and takes pride in their ability to think on their feet, work under pressure and multi-task. Additionally, in order to be an outstanding Assistant Property Manager, you will be a team player and have an adaptable personality. We have a close-knit, highly energetic team, so we are looking for someone who can seamlessly become a part of our group immediately. You will enjoy taking part in our team building events, group lunches and much more.
