Job Description

We are currently seeking a full-time Affordable Housing Property Manager (Manager I) to join our team, specifically focused on working with seniors. Previous experience in property management is a plus! If you have a passion for working with seniors, are organized, detail-oriented, and have strong communication skills, this position could be a great fit for you. We value your ability to connect with residents, manage daily operations, and contribute to creating a supportive and welcoming environment.

Providence Community Housing is a 501(c)3 nonprofit affordable housing developer and property manager serving the Greater New Orleans area. With almost 20 years of development experience and over 1,700 residential units developed to date, Providence has taken over the property management functions of Christopher Homes, Inc. and is proud to add their 60 year history of excellence to our team managing over 2,400 senior affordable apartments. We focus on the production and preservation of affordable housing and empowering strong communities.

A typical day in the life of an Affordable Housing Property Manager working with seniors involves overseeing both resident needs and the site staff. You'll start your day by reviewing emails and voicemails to address any urgent concerns. Throughout the day, you'll meet with current or prospective residents, assist with lease signings, handle maintenance requests, and coordinate with vendors to ensure the property is well-maintained. In addition, you'll manage and support site staff, ensuring they are fulfilling their responsibilities and providing excellent service to residents. You'll also work closely with residents, offering support and fostering a strong sense of community, all while keeping detailed records and ensuring compliance with housing regulations. Every day brings new opportunities to make a positive impact on both residents and staff, creating a safe, welcoming environment for seniors to call home.

We're looking for a candidate who :

• Has a passion for working with seniors and creating a positive, supportive environment
• Is organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple tasks
• Demonstrates strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Is comfortable using computers and property management software
• Is reliable, adaptable, and ready to handle occasional on-call responsibilities
• Has prior experience in property management or a related field (preferred but not required)

This is a full-time position, typically Monday through Friday, with occasional on-call responsibilities for emergencies. While most of your workday will be during regular business hours, there may be times when you'll need to respond to urgent situations outside of these hours to ensure the safety and well-being of our residents. Flexibility and responsiveness are key to this role.

If you're passionate about working with seniors and believe you have the skills for this role, we'd love to hear from you! To get started, simply fill out our online application. It's straightforward-just upload your resume and answer a few questions to help us learn more about you. If you're selected to move forward in the hiring process we will reach out by phone to schedule an in person interview with our senior operations team.

Please note that this position requires the successful completion of drug and background testing as part of the hiring process. The drug test does not screen for marijuana.
