• Architect TAM's training foundation from a blank page: the curriculum framework, the competency model by role, the certification standards, and the content library that supports all of it.
• Select, build, and own the learning platform and the technology stack behind it, including how training connects to our operating systems and to the data we use to measure it.
• Design the training organization itself, including structure, staffing model, operating cadence, budget, and a multi-year roadmap.
• Lead and develop the training team, including the Director of Training and the Operations Training Managers who deliver in the field, and build the case for additional capacity as the portfolio grows.
• Establish training as a partner to Operations rather than a service desk, with clear ownership, standards, and service levels.

• Rebuild onboarding so that managers are the subject matter expert and first line of defense for their own teams, supported by the training function rather than replaced by it.
• Create a role-based certification model in which every employee at Property Manager level and above is signed off as able to perform the job, with sign-off escalated up two levels.
• Build a new hire experience that reduces early turnover and gets people productive faster in an industry where turnover is the single largest driver of performance volatility.

• Own proficiency in Entrata, our core operating platform, along with the CRM and the broader technology stack. System errors in lease processing, charge setup, compliance, and renewals trace directly to training gaps, and closing them is a primary objective of this role.
• Partner with Systems and Products to build training into system rollouts and configuration changes rather than after them.
• Deliver affordable housing compliance training covering LIHTC, HUD, bond, fair housing, and file documentation standards, in partnership with Compliance.

• Take Grace Hill Pathways from a compliance checkbox to a real learning platform, and evaluate whether it remains the right foundation.
• Bring modern learning methods to a traditional industry: microlearning, mobile-first delivery, scenario and simulation-based practice, in-system guidance, and video built for people who work on their feet, not at a desk.
• Use artificial intelligence as a core building tool, not an experiment. Build content and assessments faster with it, personalize learning paths, and give site teams answers in the moment. TAM is actively deploying AI across the company and this function should be among its most sophisticated users.
• Instrument the program with data. Completion rates are not the measure. Build reporting that connects training to operating outcomes.

• Define and embed TAM's resident experience standards into training, onboarding, certification, and leadership development so that the resident experience is consistent across every community.
• Translate TAM's brand promise, service expectations, communication standards, and resident-facing behaviors into practical, role-based learning for Leasing Professionals, Community Managers, Regional Property Managers, and Operations leaders.
• Partner with Operations, Marketing, and leadership to establish clear service standards and behavioral expectations at every resident touchpoint, from first contact and leasing through maintenance, communication, renewals, and move-out.
• Build scenario-based training and assessments that prepare teams to handle resident interactions, difficult conversations, service recovery, and escalation while protecting the TAM brand.
• Measure training's impact on resident experience through relevant operating and resident-facing metrics, using results to identify gaps, reinforce standards, and continuously improve the resident journey.

• Build a leadership development track for Community Managers, Regional Property Managers, and Vice Presidents of Operations, focused on the skills most often missing: prioritization, people management, documentation, and leading to an outcome.
• Create the career ladder that lets strong people see a path and stay, supporting the company goal of growing talent internally rather than constantly rehiring.
• Embed TAM's values and service standards into how every employee is onboarded and developed.

• Define the metrics that prove training is working, including turnover and retention, time to productivity, systems and CRM compliance, compliance file quality, and audit outcomes.
• Report on those metrics to the leadership team on a regular cadence and adjust the program based on what the data shows.
• Partner with the Vice Presidents of Operations and their Regional Property Managers so that training reinforces the Roles and Responsibilities standards rather than competing with them.

• Proven builder. Has stood up a training function or materially rebuilt one, not just administered an existing program.
• Hands-on with artificial intelligence. Uses AI tools in daily work today and can show how they have made a team faster or a program better. This is a requirement, not a preference.
• Technology forward. Fluent in learning platforms and able to evaluate, select, and implement new technology rather than wait for it to be handed over.
• Data literate. Able to define metrics, build reporting, and hold a program accountable to outcomes.
• Credible with operators. Understands what site teams actually face and earns trust with people who have seen training initiatives come and go.
• Strong influencer. Able to work across Operations, Compliance, Systems, Marketing, and Human Resources without direct authority.
• Practical and fast. Comfortable launching something good, learning from it, and improving it rather than waiting for perfect.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to make complex requirements simple for a field audience.

• Bachelor's degree in business, instructional design, organizational development, education, or equivalent experience.
• Eight or more years in training, learning and development, or organizational development, including at least three in a leadership role.
• Multifamily property management experience strongly preferred. Affordable housing experience, including LIHTC, is a significant advantage.
• Demonstrated experience with learning management systems, and with implementing learning technology at scale across a distributed workforce.
• Practical, demonstrable experience applying artificial intelligence to content creation, learning design, or workforce enablement.
• Experience training on enterprise property management software, ideally Entrata, is preferred.

• Direct leadership of the training team, including the Director of Training and the Operations Training Managers who provide regional field coverage, with the expectation that the team grows as the function matures.

• Minimal. This is a corporate design and build role. Regional field delivery is carried out by the Operations Training Managers. Occasional travel for leadership meetings, company events, or a targeted initiative, generally less than 10 percent.

• Ability to operate in an open work area with moderate everyday noise.
• Ability to work from multiple locations.
• Ability to perform other duties as required.
