Job Description

Community Manager (Experienced) | Hybrid 2/3 Schedule + $2,000 Sign-On Bonus

Full-Time | San Diego, CA or Carlsbad, CA – Choose the office closest to you

If you’re an experienced Community Manager looking for flexibility, strong compensation, and a role where you can make an immediate impact, this opportunity is designed for you.

We’re seeking a proven Community Manager (Portfolio) who brings direct HOA/community management experience and can confidently lead a portfolio of associations from day one.


If you’re an experienced Community Manager ready for a role that offers more flexibility and impact, come see why we have been voted a Great Place to Work for ten years in a row and apply today.

What You’ll Get

  • $75,000 – $85,000 base salary (DOE)
  • $2,000 sign-on bonus
  • Hybrid 2/3 schedule (2 days in office, 3 days remote)
  • Work from the office closest to you:
    • 10805 Rancho Bernardo Rd., Suite 250, San Diego, CA 92127
    • 1921 Palomar Oaks Way, Suite 205, Carlsbad, CA 92008
  • Career growth with an established industry leader and strong internal support structure

What You’ll Do

As a Community Manager, you’ll own the full lifecycle of your portfolio and serve as the trusted partner to Boards and homeowners.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Acting as the primary liaison to Boards of Directors and homeowners
  • Leading Board meetings, preparing agendas, and ensuring timely follow-up
  • Managing association operations in alignment with governing documents and management agreements
  • Reviewing financials and budgets, providing insight and recommendations
  • Overseeing vendors, contracts, and capital projects
  • Managing compliance, collections, and risk awareness
  • Conducting site inspections and maintaining community standards
  • Coordinating with internal teams, including the Client Shared Service Center

Why This Role Stands Out

This position offers experienced-level compensation, true hybrid flexibility, and choice of work location, backed by a company that provides the tools and support needed to succeed.

Qualifications

What We’re Looking For

This is not an entry-level role. We are specifically seeking candidates who can operate independently and lead with confidence.

Required:

  • Direct HOA / Community Management experience
  • Strong communication skills and confidence working with Boards
  • Working knowledge of financials, budgets, and operational planning
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and communities effectively
  • Organized, proactive, and solutions-oriented mindset

Preferred:

  • Industry certifications or licenses (CMCA, CCAM, AMS, etc.)

Work Environment

This is a highly interactive, relationship-driven role. You’ll spend time in the office, in the field, and working with communities. Local travel within your portfolio may be required.
