A bit about us
We’re a venture-backed startup on a mission to change the future of hospitality and home. With properties in some of America’s most-loved cities, our unique platform allows buildings to blur the line between hotels and apartments. This all-in-one solution includes property operations, customer acquisitions, and the tech stack to operate with more flexibility than any other company in the market.
Our tech-enabled buildings create one-of-a-kind guest experiences and tremendous value in the underlying real estate. Whether guests are with us for a night, a year, or somewhere in between, these are more than just spaces to spend the night—they’re a place to call home.
Our property team members bring our business to life at each building, focusing on execution, along with resident and guest experience. Our non-property team members support property execution and the evolution of other areas within our platform.
The Specialist, Property Support, will supply on-site support to our newly acquired buildings and existing property operations teams by managing and executing on timelines, budgets, and projects, as well as providing people-related support throughout the lifecycle of our properties during times of staffing shortages, process rollout and property performance initiatives. This individual will train and project manage our on-site operations teams in logistics behind transitioning properties, such as accepting units, coordinating FF&E and OS&E, and executing Placemakr Customer Experience standards, while providing hands-on support throughout. While functioning as an extension of our property operations team, the Specialist, Property Support will be an integral member of the on-site staff by bridging communication across the Property Operations and non-property teams to relay issues, questions, changes, and needs, during transitionary periods and on-going operations. In partnership with the Manager, Property Support, this individual will set up systems and processes that make the transition process on-site as seamless as possible.
In this position, you must be detailed oriented and a strong planner, as you will be expected to manage new and ongoing projects with moving deadlines in order to support the achievement of property performance expectations. As a utility player providing operational support to our property teams in various situations, you will be expected to manage competing priorities effectively, embody people leadership skills, and consistently Own It, Make It Better and Treat People Right.
