Business Manager - Avion

Strong financial instincts and people management skills drive this role more than anything else. The Business Manager position at Avion in Bozeman, MT asks you to hold two things at once: the numbers side of a luxury asset and the human side of a team that needs direction, training, and motivation. Olympus Property, a three-time National Apartment Association Top Employer (2023, 2024, 2025), is hiring for this full-time position at a starting range of $75,000 to $80,000 annually, with monthly commissions and quarterly and annual bonus eligibility on top of that.

Financial and Operational Scope

You'll own the full financial picture at Avion. That means building and monitoring budgets, tracking occupancy and rent performance, analyzing monthly results against projections, and presenting strategy to Regional Leadership. Annual business plans and budget forecasts are part of the cycle. So is reviewing vendor contracts, bidding out service work, and managing one-time capital projects. Olympus uses RealPage, Knock, and Onesite, and meaningful experience with that stack is strongly preferred. The position is built around someone who can read a T-12, spot where NOI is slipping, and translate that into action on the ground.

Regular property inspections keep units and amenity spaces in market-ready condition. You'll oversee make-ready standards, set the pace for the maintenance team, and make sure the physical asset reflects the Class A positioning that Avion carries in the Bozeman market.

Team Leadership and Leasing Culture

The office and maintenance teams both report to you. Coaching, counseling, and training are ongoing responsibilities, not occasional ones. You'll build out leasing and marketing programs aimed at maximizing occupancy and renewals, and you'll be in the field with clients, vendors, and staff when the situation calls for it. The schedule is Monday through Friday with hours varying between 8 AM and 6 PM, plus flexibility for resident events and after-hours emergencies.

Olympus places real weight on culture, and the Business Manager is expected to model and reinforce it. That's not window dressing here. The company's employee feedback consistently points to collaboration, engagement, and a family-oriented environment as genuine differentiators, and those qualities filter down from site leadership.

What Separates Strong Candidates

Two years of multifamily property management experience is the floor. Luxury or Class A experience is the real differentiator. Bozeman has seen significant rent growth and development activity over the past several years, and residents at Class A communities there carry high expectations. Candidates who've managed lease-up periods, handled concession strategy thoughtfully, and kept delinquency in check without sacrificing resident relationships will be better positioned than those with volume experience alone. Comfort with the RealPage suite accelerates the ramp considerably.

• Minimum 2 years of multifamily property manager experience required
• Class A or luxury community background preferred
• RealPage, Knock, and Onesite familiarity strongly preferred
• Full-time availability Monday through Friday with after-hours flexibility
• Background in team leadership within a high-service environment

Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k) with employer matching, tuition reimbursement, an apartment rental allowance, sabbatical eligibility, and access to Olympus's Budget Camp and Leadership Conferences for ongoing professional development.
