Resident services coordinators work at assisted living facilities, universities, or similar housing communities. They are responsible for creating a friendly and functional environment for everyone who lives in their facility. As a resident services coordinator, your job duties include responding to resident needs, training staff, managing vendor contracts, and coordinating regular activities for the residents. To become a resident services coordinator, you need a high school diploma, though some employers may prefer candidates who have a bachelor's degree and experience in coordinating group activities.
