• Monitor unit turnover and maintenance work orders to ensure timely completion.
• Respond to on‑site emergencies and coordinate with the on‑site team, including providing in‑person support and coverage as needed for colleagues at other locations.
• Partner with CMS Project Manager in supporting various asset improvement and preventative maintenance projects.
• Be the Community Management stakeholder of each project.
• Assist in scheduling and granting property access for projects led by Project Execution and sustainability, which can require on‑site presence to facilitate.
• Communicate with on‑site team and residents in person (or telephonically and virtually when not possible) to confirm work completion, gather feedback, and recommend improvements.
• Assist in purchasing supplies, equipment, and services while tracking budget variances and escalating concerns as needed.
• Other responsibilities as deemed necessary by the company as part of the ordinary course of business.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

• High school diploma or equivalent required.
• College degree preferred.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and familiarity with property management or CRM software.
• Prior experience in customer service or property management is preferred.
• Commitment to providing exceptional customer service and a desire to help people.
• Strong organizational and time management skills to handle multiple responsibilities effectively.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a centralized hub environment.
• Ability to read, write, speak, and understand English.
• Capability to utilize a personal smart device for apps related to property operations and communication.
• Ability to work on‑site to complete essential job functions outlined above and as arise in the ordinary course of the job.

WHAT THE JOB REQUIRES:

• Maintain alignment with Essex policies and procedures while effectively managing relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
• Maintain compliance with all applicable laws, e.g., Fair Housing, Landlord Tenant, Local Building Codes, OSHA, and EEOC.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to create, compose, and edit written materials.
• Regular, consistent, and timely attendance required.
• This role requires a five‑day workweek that will likely include weekend coverage.
• Work is primarily performed at an Essex office location, involving extended periods of sitting at a desk or workstation, with the regular need to deliver resident notices. This may involve walking and use of stairs for prolonged periods of time.
• Travel required for occasional meetings and training.

WHAT YOU WILL BRING TO THE TABLE:

• Decisions made with thorough understanding of procedures, company policies, and business practices to achieve general results and deadlines.
• Team‑oriented mindset with a commitment to efficiency and service excellence.
