It's 9 a.m. on the first of the month. Rent is posting, a move-out inspection is scheduled for 10, and the Community Manager is in back-to-back calls. You're the one keeping the morning on track.
The Assistant Community Manager role at Terava Apartments in Bend, Oregon puts you in the middle of daily operations across every major function of a multifamily property. CloudTen Residential, a West Coast operator with a portfolio that spans hotel-to-residential conversions, lease-ups, and value-add repositioning, built this position with a specific purpose: developing the next generation of Community Managers. That framing matters. This isn't a support role that happens to have some visibility. It's structured training for full-site leadership.
On the financial side, you'll collect and post rent, prepare daily deposits, reconcile accounts, and process invoices. Weekly and monthly reporting falls within your scope, as does managing delinquency through notices, follow-up, and coordinating eviction proceedings when necessary. You'll operate the property management software with accuracy, because data integrity downstream depends on what gets entered upstream.
Leasing and marketing are part of the picture too. You'll respond to inquiries, conduct tours, monitor comparable properties, and help recommend pricing adjustments based on market conditions. Lease documents need to stay compliant with Fair Housing standards, and resident retention efforts, including renewals and community programming, run through this role.
When the Community Manager is unavailable, you step into site leadership. That means guiding the on-site team, handling operational issues, and ensuring the property stays compliant with landlord-tenant law and company standards.
The candidates who get the most out of this role tend to be the ones who treat the financial side as seriously as the leasing side. Knowing how to read a T-12, understanding what's driving delinquency, and being able to explain NOI trends to ownership are skills that compound quickly at this level and become expected at the Community Manager level. If you're aiming for that seat, this role gives you the reps to get there.
Compensation runs $25 to $27 per hour depending on experience. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage, a flexible spending account, company-paid life insurance, and paid time off.
