Property Manager
Risere, Newark, NJ, United States
Property Manager (Facilities-Focused) – Student Housing | Newark, NJ
Salary: $80,000 – $85,000 + Bonus Potential
What if your role wasn’t about leasing apartments — but about making sure 300+ students wake up every day in a community that simply works?
At
Maple Hall , an off‑campus student housing community serving NJIT, we’re looking for a
Property Manager with a facilities and operations mindset
— someone who takes pride in keeping a building running smoothly, teams aligned, and residents supported behind the scenes.
This is
not
an entry level or leasing role. There are no tours, no sales goals. Instead, your focus is on
operations, maintenance leadership, and delivering a safe, fully functional living environment
for students.
What This Role Really Looks Like You’ll walk the property and notice the things others don’t — a system running inefficiently, a maintenance trend that needs attention, a process that could be tighter.
You’ll lead a team that includes a
Maintenance Supervisor, technicians, and housekeeping staff , making sure work gets done right, quickly, and consistently.
You’ll also work closely with
NJIT partners , ensuring expectations are met, communication is strong, and the community remains in full alignment with university standards.
During peak times like move‑in and move‑out, you’ll help orchestrate high‑volume turns — keeping everything organized, efficient, and on schedule.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
Overseeing daily operations of a large student housing community
Leading and supporting maintenance and housekeeping teams
Ensuring timely completion of work orders and preventative maintenance
Maintaining building systems, safety standards, and overall property condition
Partnering directly with NJIT and attending regular meetings with university stakeholders
Ensuring compliance with all operational, safety, and housing standards
Identifying issues early and solving problems before they elevate
What We’re Looking For
3+ years of experience in
student housing, facilities management, or multifamily operations
Strong experience leading
maintenance and/or housekeeping teams
Solid understanding of building systems and multi‑unit operations
Someone who is
hands‑on, observant, and operationally driven
Comfortable working with external partners (university or institutional preferred)
Highly organized, responsive, and able to manage high‑volume environments
A problem‑solver who takes ownership and follows through
$80,000 – $85,000 salary , based on experience
Medical, dental, and vision coverage
401(k) with company match
Generous paid time off, including vacation, sick time, and holidays
Benefits begin the first of the month after hire
Why This Role Matters Students may never know your name — but they’ll feel your impact every day.
When everything works the way it should, they can focus on school, friendships, and their future. That’s what this role is all about.
If you’re someone who takes pride in operations, leadership, and keeping things running at a high level — this is a unique opportunity to step into a role where your work truly matters.
