About 52TEN
52TEN is an established private investment firm, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, specializing in the acquisition and reposition of manufactured housing communities. As one of the top 100 community owners in America, 52TEN is recognized for its innovative approach and commitment to delivering the best experience in the industry to its employees, residents, investors, and vendors. 

At 52TEN, we believe strong communities start with strong leadership. We are seeking a driven, service-oriented Community Manager to join our team in north Phoenix, Arizona.
 

About The Role
52TEN is acquiring a 150-homesite manufactured housing community in North Phoenix, and we’re looking for a strong Community Manager to lead the property through its transition and into its next chapter.
This is an opportunity to take real ownership of a community—not simply maintain the status quo. You’ll lead day-to-day operations, build relationships with residents, drive occupancy and home sales, and work closely with our District Manager to identify opportunities to strengthen the community and its performance.
You’ll have the support and resources of an established, growing company while still having the autonomy to make an impact at the property level. From creating a great resident experience to developing your onsite team and improving financial performance, you’ll play a meaningful role in shaping what this community becomes under 52TEN’s ownership.
We’re looking for someone who enjoys being hands-on, takes pride in running a great property, and is excited by the opportunity to improve a community rather than simply inherit an established playbook.
