Property Services Manager

Property Services Manager

Cincinnati, OH
$75,000+ / year

OVERVIEW

Our client, a growing real estate firm, is seeking a Property Services Manager to oversee the physical condition, maintenance, and long-term value of its residential portfolio.

Unlike traditional property management roles, this position focuses primarily on project management, make-ready oversight, and property preservation — not leasing or tenant relations.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on, detail-oriented professional with strong experience in construction or facilities management, exceptional organizational skills, and a drive to ensure every property is maintained to top standards.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Manage all aspects of property maintenance, repairs, and renovations across assigned assets.

• Lead make-ready (turnover) projects from move-out inspection through completion — defining scope, sourcing bids, managing vendors, and ensuring quality.

• Oversee capital improvement projects, such as unit remodels, exterior upgrades, and system replacements.

• Conduct detailed property inspections to verify quality and compliance with company standards.

• Build and maintain strong vendor and contractor relationships to ensure timely, high-quality work.

• Approve invoices, review bids, and manage project budgets effectively.

• Identify preventative maintenance and improvement opportunities to preserve long-term asset health.

• Collaborate with ownership and internal teams to report on project progress, budgets, and timelines.

WHY YOU MATTER

As the Property Services Manager, you are the hands-on guardian of the company’s assets. Your oversight ensures each property is well-maintained, efficiently turned, and strategically improved, directly impacting asset performance, resident satisfaction, and long-term investment value.

WHAT IT TAKES

• 3–5+ years of experience in property maintenance, facilities management, or construction project management.

• Strong working knowledge of residential building systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing, etc.).

• Proven ability to manage multiple projects, budgets, and vendor relationships simultaneously.

• Excellent organizational skills and a strong eye for detail.

• Solid financial acumen with the ability to make cost-conscious, quality-driven decisions.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills.

• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.

• Preferred: hands-on construction background, trade certifications, or experience with property management software (e.g., PropertyMeld, Rentvine).

THE PERKS

• $75,000+ / year, depending on experience

• 401(k) with company match

• Paid vacation and sick leave

• Flexible, self-managed schedule with autonomy to oversee all aspects of property performance

• Opportunity to make a visible impact within a stable and expanding organization
