Executive Assistant - Real Estate Property Management

Remote / Work From Home | Company based in California About Us: We are a real estate company that manages a portfolio of residential rental properties across the United States, focused on maintaining organized, efficient, and well-coordinated property operations. Role Summary: We are looking for an Executive Assistant who will primarily support the day-to-day operations of a U.S.-based portfolio of residential rental properties. This is a full-time position, Monday through Friday, 8AM to 5PM CST, with a fixed monthly rate. Weekend availability for urgent matters is expected. This role is focused on ensuring smooth coordination across property management activities, including tenant communications, lease tracking, vendor coordination, and overall portfolio organization. While the primary focus is on real estate operations, the role may also provide occasional support across other business lines, including ecommerce and government contracting. The EA will serve as a trusted right hand to the executive, handling administrative, coordination, and communication tasks with a high level of discretion, accuracy, and responsiveness. This position is designed to grow beyond traditional EA duties into a broader operations and leadership support role over time. Role Focus: This role is focused on providing high-level executive, operational, and coordination support on a growing U.S. real estate portfolio to ensure efficiency, accountability, and seamless execution of daily activities. A Note on Culture and Expectations: This is a high-output, fast-paced role that rewards people who like to be challenged, take ownership, and grow. You will be exposed to multiple business lines, real operational problems, and situations that require independent thinking and sound judgment. There is real opportunity here to expand your skills, take on increasing responsibility, and develop both professionally and personally. This is not the right role for someone looking to coast, stay on autopilot, or split attention with another full-time job. We move quickly, standards are high, and the executive you support will depend on you to be fully present and fully committed. If that sounds exciting to you, read on.
