Job Type

Full-time

$60,000-$65,000 + Comprehensive Benefits + 16 Paid Holidays

At Cohere, we believe community is the most valuable amenity.

We do more than manage communities-we help create places where people connect, belong, and thrive. By partnering with some of the nation's most innovative master-planned communities, we create places residents are proud to call home and where meaningful relationships flourish.

We're looking for a Community Operations Manager to join our team at Elyson, one of Texas' premier master-planned communities. Spanning more than 3,600 acres, Elyson continues to grow with new neighborhoods, retail, parks, amenities, and recreational opportunities, creating a dynamic environment where no two days are the same.

In this role, you'll partner closely with the Executive Director to lead the community's day-to-day operations, oversee its amenities and physical assets, develop a high-performing team, and create the systems and accountability needed to deliver an exceptional resident experience.

This is more than a traditional community management role. It's an opportunity to help shape the future of a nationally recognized community while working alongside residents, Board members, developers, vendors, and a talented team.

If you're a highly organized, proactive leader who enjoys building strong teams, improving operations, and creating places where people truly thrive, we'd love to meet you.

The best communities are built by people who feel supported, valued, and empowered to do their best work. That's why we invest in benefits, time away, and professional growth that help our team members thrive both personally and professionally.
