Assistant Manager - Teravista Ridge

Most assistant manager roles sit at the intersection of two jobs: the financial side that the property manager leans on, and the resident-facing work that keeps the community running day to day. At Teravista Ridge in Round Rock, TX, Olympus Property is hiring for exactly that position, and the role asks a lot of a person who does it well.

What the Work Actually Looks Like

On any given day, you might open by reconciling deposits and verifying that every payment posted overnight landed correctly in OneSite, then spend the next hour walking make-readies before the leasing team puts them back on traffic. Knock rings, a prospective resident wants a tour, and you cover it. By afternoon, a long-term resident has a complaint that's been sitting in the queue too long, and you handle it before it becomes something worse. This isn't a role where you manage from a desk. The office work is real, and the face-time requirements are just as real.

Core responsibilities include managing rent collection, making sure deposits hit before bank close each day, processing move-out account statements, and maintaining the accuracy of resident files. You'll also step into the property manager's seat during absences, which means you need to understand the full picture of the asset: occupancy, delinquency, and what's happening in the Round Rock submarket that could affect either one.

The schedule is Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM, with flexibility for the first weekend of the month and occasional after-hours resident events. That's honest: it's mostly a weekday role, but "mostly" isn't "always."

What Olympus Is Looking For

• Onsite apartment experience as an assistant manager or a cross-trained leasing consultant
• Comfort with RealPage, OneSite, and Knock (strongly preferred, not just a nice-to-have)
• Attention to detail in financial recordkeeping and resident file management
• Ability to pick up leasing responsibilities when the team needs coverage
• Full-time availability with schedule flexibility as described above

What separates a strong candidate here from an average one isn't just software familiarity. It's the combination of financial discipline and genuine resident instincts. Someone who treats delinquency follow-up as routine but handles a frustrated resident with actual care. The two skills don't always come in the same person, and Olympus is looking for both.

Compensation starts at $27 per hour, with monthly renewal incentives and quarterly bonuses on top of that. Benefits include medical, dental and vision coverage, 401(k) with employer matching, tuition reimbursement, an apartment rental allowance, and a sabbatical program. Olympus has appeared on the National Apartment Association's Top Employer list three consecutive years, which reflects something about how the company treats the people doing this work.

If you've been the person a property manager trusts to hold things together when they're out, this role is a natural fit. It's also a clear path toward the property manager seat itself, since you'll already be doing much of that work.
