Reporting To: Kat Butler

Description

Founded in 1954, North American Properties (NAP) is a privately held, multi-regional real estate operating company with a long history of acquiring, developing, and managing retail, multifamily, mixed-use, and office properties across the United States. NAP Development LLC is a venture office of NAP focused on providing Commercial Real Estate Owner’s Representative services. The team operates in a fully remote environment. This is an entry level job. This associate must reside in the state of Florida. Candidates in Orlando, Florida are preferred.

The Office and Project Administrator serves as the operational backbone of NAP Development LLC. This is first and foremost a broad administrative role, with approximately 75% of the position focused on keeping the day-to-day operations of the office organized, responsive, and running smoothly. Responsibilities include managing correspondence and records, coordinating with vendors and consultants, preparing and routing contracts and other documents, providing notary services, and supporting scheduling and documentation needs across a distributed team.

The remaining 25% of the role provides project administration support, working closely with Project Managers and Partners to help maintain budget tracking, coordinate invoicing, and keep pay application and related project workflows moving accurately and on schedule.

This role is well suited for someone who enjoys taking ownership of the systems and details that keep a small, fast-moving organization operating effectively. The ideal candidate is highly organized, resourceful, comfortable managing multiple priorities, and naturally becomes the person others rely on when they need to find something, coordinate something, send something, or get something signed.
