Assistant Manager - Harper

Olympus Property has held the National Apartment Association's Top Employer distinction three years running, and this Assistant Manager role at their Harper community in Tempe puts you at the center of day-to-day operations on the ground.

What the Job Looks Like

This is an office-anchored, ops-focused role. You handle rent collection and ensure all deposits clear before bank close each day. You maintain resident files and financial records with accuracy. When a resident has a concern, you address it directly. When the Property Manager is out, you run the property. That's the core of it.

You'll also stay involved in leasing. Showing apartments, supporting the leasing team during high-traffic periods, inspecting make-ready units before move-in, all of that falls within your scope. On the back end, you'll track move-out conditions, prepare final account statements, and manage the disposition process.

Keeping an eye on the submarket matters here. Tempe sits in a competitive corridor with ongoing multifamily construction, retail turnover, and a renter base heavily tied to ASU and the broader East Valley employment market. Knowing what's opening nearby, what competitors are offering, and what's happening with local hiring trends directly informs how you think about occupancy and concessions.

What Olympus Needs from You

• Prior onsite experience as an Assistant Manager or a cross-trained Leasing Consultant
• Comfort with RealPage, Knock, or Onesite (preferred)
• Full-time availability Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM, with flexibility for after-hours resident events and the first weekend of each month
• Organized, detail-oriented approach to financial records and compliance
• Strong communication skills for both resident interactions and internal team coordination

Compensation and Growth

Pay runs $22 to $25 per hour depending on experience, with monthly renewal incentives and quarterly bonuses on top of base. Benefits include medical, dental, vision, 401(k) with employer matching, tuition reimbursement, and an apartment rental allowance. Olympus also offers a formal career pathing program, which matters if you're aiming toward a Property Manager seat. The Assistant Manager role is the most direct path to that, and companies with defined career pathing tend to promote from within more consistently than those without it.
