  • Confirm technician arrival and visit outcomes, document whether issues were completed or require additional follow-up, and arrange return appointments when necessary.

  • Maintain organized administrative records such as invoices, receipts, and related service documentation.

  • Communicate with vendors, property management staff, and internal team members to support scheduling and service coordination.

  • Notify residents about planned construction activity, utility interruptions, or other property events that may affect access or services.

  • Provide administrative assistance to the property manager, including support with lease renewal coordination and other office tasks as needed.

Requirements • Experience in administrative support, service coordination, or a similar office-based role.

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills with the ability to interact professionally with residents, vendors, and team members.

  • Ability to manage inbound calls, enter data accurately, and maintain organized records in a timely manner.

  • Familiarity with maintenance request handling, work order tracking, or property management operations.

  • Sound judgment and a calm, solutions-focused approach when addressing resident concerns or high-pressure situations.
