We manage hundreds of properties and run a modern, tech-forward operation built on automation, AI-assisted workflows, and strong systems. The Role You run the vendor side of the business. This is a technical, hands-on coordination role: you read scopes of work, understand what a repair actually involves, source and vet vendors, get multiple quotes, and drive every job from open to close with airtight record-keeping. You're the person who picks up the phone, calls around until you find the right contractor at the right price, and builds a bench of reliable vendors we can trust across every market. On a regular day you might be dispatching an HVAC tech to a unit at 90°F, reading a contractor's scope to sanity-check it, chasing down two more quotes for a plumbing job, negotiating an invoice, scheduling next month's inspections, and updating the tracker so nothing slips.
