Remote Google Insurance Jobs in Austin, TX (NOW HIRING)

Position Summary
Smart City is the nation's largest apartment locating brokerage, operating in six states. We've partnered with Owner Resource Group, and we're gearing up for more growth: four new markets launching in the next six months, with more to follow.

That footprint adds real complexity to our back office: entity registrations, registered agent service, payroll tax accounts, state and federal filings, and legal counsel coordination. Today that work is spread across several people and several vendors. This role brings it together under one owner. We're looking for someone who can bring best practices and loves to streamline

You'll also own payroll processing end to end. We run on ADP plus a fully custom CRM built for both our agents and the teams that support them, with more features currently in development.
