Assistant Property Manager

Skills This Role Puts to Work Daily

This assistant property manager position at The Signature at Schilling Farms Apartments in Collierville, Tennessee draws on a specific mix: leasing ability, administrative accuracy, and operational awareness. You're not here to specialize in just one of those. You need all three working together on the same shift.

On the leasing side, you'll handle the full cycle from prospect to signed lease. That means knowing the property cold: floor plans, amenities, pricing, and what sets this community apart. Traffic counts go in daily. Rental payments get collected and posted accurately. Residents submit service requests and expect follow-through, so you'll either handle those directly or make sure they move to the right hands.

The inspection piece is real work. Model units, common areas, vacant apartments, amenities. You walk them. You catch issues before residents do. That habit, done consistently, protects the property's condition and the company's reputation.

What the Role Requires

• One to two years of residential leasing or property management experience
• Hands-on experience with OneSite or Yardi (strongly preferred)
• Availability to work weekends
• Ability to walk the property, including stairs
• Valid driver's license, reliable transportation, and proof of insurance
• High school diploma or equivalent

The software requirement matters here. If you've logged real time in OneSite or Yardi posting payments, running reports, and managing resident records, you'll move faster from day one. If you've used comparable platforms, be prepared to talk through what you know.

Working at MRG

Makowsky Ringel Greenberg is a Memphis-area firm with a track record in residential management. The Collierville market sits in one of the stronger suburban submarkets in the greater Memphis metro, with demand that stays relatively steady. Working at a property like this gives you exposure to an active lease-up and renewal environment without the instability of a struggling asset.

The role carries real backup responsibility. When the property manager is out, you step in. That's worth noting for candidates who want to move toward a property manager title within the next year or two. This position is a direct path if you perform.

Compensation includes a base salary, a bonus and commission program, medical and other insurance options, a 401(k) with profit-sharing, and paid training. The company describes the work environment as pleasant, which in practice usually means low turnover and stable leadership.
