Assistant Property Manager​/Property Manager

About Us

Live Oak acquires, develops, and services best-in-class commercial real estate in Central Texas. Our mission is straightforward: create long-term value for our tenants, investors, and team by managing our 7-million-square-foot portfolio well and helping our community grow in the process. Alotten is assisting us with hiring for a new team member.

As a support role for our Property Management team, you will partner closely with Live Oak's Property Managers to keep a commercial real estate portfolio running smoothly. It's a hands-on, in-office role where your day splits between fielding tenant and vendor calls and focused spreadsheet work. This role is a great fit for someone who enjoys variety and thrives in ambiguity.

You will wear multiple hats, adapt as priorities shift, and take ownership of results without waiting to be told what to do.

You will work alongside two to three Property Managers, supporting 100-125 commercial tenants. You won't be carrying that load alone, since building engineers, vendor partners, and the Property Managers themselves are all working with you. At Live Oak, we pride ourselves on taking extraordinary care of our assets and the people who lease them. (And if you look at our benefits below, you'll see we take care of our people as well.)

This role is a critical part of the team delivering on our promises to tenants. The position is built to grow with you. We regularly promote from within, and several current Property Managers started in this exact seat (it's also why this opening exists). We also support your pursuit of industry certifications, such as CPM or RPA.

This position typically works from our central Austin office four days a week, with one remote day where you can work from home. Hours are generally Monday-Friday, 8 am-5 pm Central, with occasional exceptions.
