Job Description

Assistant Property Manager

Luxury Multifamily Property Management Boston, MA Onsite

A well-established multifamily property management company is seeking an experienced Assistant Property Manager to join the team at a luxury waterfront community in East Boston. This nearly 500-unit, two-phase community offers residents an upscale living experience, and this role is central to keeping daily operations running smoothly.

This is a great opportunity for a proven Assistant Property Manager who is ready to take on more ownership, operate independently, and grow within a luxury property management environment.

Why You Should Apply

  • Join a luxury waterfront community with strong long-term growth potential.
  • Take on real ownership and independence in a role where your judgment and initiative are trusted.
  • Gain exposure to a complex, two-entity property structure that will sharpen your skills across financials, operations, and compliance.
  • Build your career with a company that values growth and provides a path to take on more responsibility over time.

About the Role

This role is well-suited for someone who enjoys variety and problem-solving. The on-site senior community manager splits time across multiple properties, so this position requires someone who can run day-to-day operations with a high degree of independence.


Key Responsibilities

Resident & Financial Operations

  • Process security deposit refunds accurately and in a timely manner.
  • Review and maintain resident ledgers.
  • Handle check vouchers and support month-end close processes.
  • Support financial reporting and budget processes as needed.

Property Operations

  • Operate independently in the absence of daily on-site regional support.
  • Step in to support leasing efforts as backup when leasing agents are unavailable.
  • Help maintain smooth day-to-day operations across a large, multi-phase community.
  • Navigate the added complexity of managing a two-entity property structure.

Team & Resident Relations

  • Serve as a reliable point of contact for residents and support staff.
  • Work collaboratively with the on-site community manager and broader property management team.
  • Maintain a professional, solutions-oriented approach to resident and operational concerns.

Qualifications

  • Prior Assistant Property Manager experience required — this is not an entry-level leasing role.
  • Demonstrated experience with security deposit processing, resident ledgers, check vouchers, and month-end close.
  • Financial/P&L experience is a plus but not required.
  • Strong self-starter mentality — must be comfortable operating with minimal daily on-site oversight.
  • Leasing experience helpful, as backup support may be needed.
  • Experience in a well-run B/B+ or luxury multifamily community preferred.
  • Strong written and verbal communication, organizational, and multi-tasking skills.

Work Schedule

  • Monday–Friday, approximately 9:00 AM–6:00 PM.
  • Typically 2–3 Saturdays per month, with 1 Saturday off per month.
  • A weekday off is provided when working a Saturday.
  • Some flexibility required based on occupancy and business needs.

The Ideal Candidate

You're a motivated, detail-oriented property management professional ready to step into a luxury community and take on more responsibility. You're comfortable managing complexity, working independently, and being a dependable presence on-site. If you're looking to grow your career in luxury multifamily property management, this is a strong next step.
