Assistant Community Manager
Property: The Domain at Waco — Student Housing Location: Waco, TX Reports To: Community Manager Status: Full-Time, Non-Exempt Schedule: Monday–Friday, with rotating weekend and extended hours during pre-lease season, turn, and move-in Position Summary
The Assistant Community Manager supports the Community Manager in the day-to-day operation of a by-the-bed student housing community serving Baylor University students. This role owns the financial side of the office — rent collection, delinquency, resident ledgers, and reporting — while also carrying a leasing goal and serving as the second-in-command when the Community Manager is off-site.
Success in this role looks like clean books, low delinquency, a full property, and residents (and their guarantors) who feel taken care of.
Key Responsibilities
- Financial & Administrative
- Post rent payments, process daily deposits, and maintain accurate resident ledgers
- Manage the delinquency process end to end: notices, payment plans, guarantor outreach, and coordination with legal counsel on evictions
- Prepare and review weekly and monthly reports (occupancy, pre-lease, delinquency, variance)
- Assist with invoice coding, purchase orders, and budget tracking
- Complete move-in and move-out accounting, including security deposit dispositions and damage billing
- Maintain accurate resident files in compliance with company policy and Fair Housing law
- Leasing & Marketing
- Carry an individual leasing and renewal goal during pre-lease season
- Conduct tours, follow up on leads, and close applications for by-the-bed leases
- Manage the application-to-lease pipeline: guarantor verification, income/credit screening, lease generation, and signature collection
- Support roommate matching and unit assignments
- Execute renewal campaigns and outreach and marketing events on and around campus
- Assist with social media content, resident referral programs, and competitor market surveys
- Resident Relations
- Serve as an escalation point for resident and parent/guarantor concerns; resolve issues promptly and document outcomes
- Coordinate resident events and community programming
- Support lease violation documentation and conflict resolution between roommates
- Maintain a visible, approachable presence in the leasing office and community
- Operations & Team Support
- Assist with the annual turn: unit inspections, vendor scheduling, punch walks, and move-in readiness
- Help hire, train, and schedule Community Assistants and leasing staff
- Assume Community Manager duties in their absence
- Participate in the on-call rotation for after-hours emergencies
- Walk the property regularly to identify curb appeal, safety, and maintenance issues
Qualifications
- Required
- High school diploma or equivalent
- 1+ years of experience in property management, leasing, hospitality, retail, or a comparable customer-facing role
- Strong math and attention to detail; comfort with ledgers, spreadsheets, and reconciliation
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Ability to work weekends and extended hours during peak seasons (pre-lease, turn, move-in)
- Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
- Preferred
- Prior student housing experience, particularly with by-the-bed leasing and guarantor-backed leases
- Working knowledge of Entrata, RealPage, or comparable property management software
- Familiarity with Texas landlord-tenant law and Fair Housing requirements
- Bilingual (English/Spanish)
- Competencies
- Ownership — treats delinquency and occupancy numbers as personal responsibility
- Composure — handles upset residents and parents without escalating
- Follow-through — closes loops on maintenance requests, applications, and collections
- Team orientation — willing to jump on a tour, walk a unit, or cover the desk
- Physical Requirements
- Must be able to walk the property multiple times daily, including stairs; occasionally lift up to 25 lbs; sit or stand for extended periods; and work outdoors in Texas heat during turn and outreach events.
