Float Manager Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Portfolio Float Manager is the "fire fighter" for our properties when there is a gap in management - inside and outside of Sioux Falls. It is expected that you will take complete ownership of each property that you step into and run it as if you were managing it long-term. You will need to use good intuition when making decisions and have a knack for working with people. As a Portfolio Float Manager, you will not have home property and will spend your time managing different properties, improving overall property performance while also training the new property manager for that specific property. Because part of your time will be spent training our newest property manager - patience is key for this position. Some properties may be in a brand-new market which will require working closely with construction and the Regional Manager to ensure a successful lease up. Flexibility with your schedule and a positive attitude is a must. When the Portfolio Float Manager is not needed on a property, they will join the leasing team to focus on overall leasing for the company.
