Business Manager - Olympus at Three Springs

Skills That Drive This Role

The Business Manager position at Olympus at Three Springs in Durango, CO calls on a specific combination of financial fluency, people leadership, and operational judgment. You're reading T-12s, projecting budgets, and discussing NOI strategy with regional leadership one hour, then walking a punch list with maintenance staff or touring the community with a prospective resident the next. The role rewards people who can hold both the big picture and the ground-level detail at the same time, without dropping either.

Financial oversight is genuinely central here, not a secondary responsibility. You'll own the property's budget forecasts, track occupancy and delinquency trends, and build annual asset business plans. That kind of accountability means you need to be comfortable presenting financial performance to Regional Leadership and articulating why numbers moved the way they did, not just reporting them. Strong candidates treat the financials as a diagnostic tool, not a reporting obligation.

What You're Actually Managing Day to Day

Your team includes both office staff and maintenance personnel, and your effectiveness depends on how well you develop them. Coaching a leasing consultant through a difficult sales conversation and redirecting a maintenance tech on work order priorities are both in your week. So is vendor negotiation: bidding contracts, managing ongoing service relationships, and holding vendors accountable to the standards a Class A community requires.

Resident retention and renewal strategy also sit with you. Durango draws a renter base with real options, so keeping occupancy strong means building genuine community, not just running concessions. Olympus puts cultural programming behind that effort, and you'd be the person who makes sure it lands on-site rather than existing only on paper.

The schedule is primarily Monday through Friday, with flexibility for resident events and the occasional after-hours situation. That's honest. Property management at this level doesn't clock out cleanly every day, and the right person for this role accepts that without resentment because they're invested in the outcome.

What Makes This a Good Fit Specifically at Olympus

Olympus has earned recognition as a top employer in the National Apartment Association rankings three years running, and based on what their teams report internally, the culture genuinely reflects that. Leadership conferences, career pathing programs, and a sabbatical benefit aren't common in multifamily at this scale. If you've worked for operators who talk about people development but don't fund it, you'll notice the difference.

Experience with RealPage, Knock, or Onesite is strongly preferred, and luxury Class A background carries real weight in the selection process. If your background includes lease-up experience or managing at properties where resident expectations are high and margin for error is low, that translates directly here.

• Minimum two years of multifamily property management experience required
• Class A or luxury property background preferred
• RealPage, Knock, or Onesite experience strongly preferred
• Full-time, Monday through Friday with schedule flexibility
• Starting pay range: $70,000 to $78,000 annually, plus monthly commissions and quarterly and annual bonus eligibility

For someone who leads through relationship-building as much as through process, and who wants to manage a property where culture and performance are treated as connected rather than competing priorities, this role in Durango is worth a serious look.
