Leasing Consultant

Scion's Experience Team Member (ETM) role at Lark Huntsville is a front-line leasing and customer experience position at a student housing property in Huntsville, TX, home to Sam Houston State University. If you've spent time around collegiate living, you already know the pace: high traffic during lease-up season, a resident population that turns over almost entirely every 12 months, and a summer turn that demands real stamina and focus.

What You'll Actually Do

The day-to-day splits into three areas: sales and leasing, community engagement, and property administration. On the leasing side, you'll tour prospects, field objections, and report feedback to the management team so they can adjust pricing or concessions strategies. You'll also support social media content and local marketing outreach, which in a college market means staying current on what's happening on campus and positioning the property accordingly.

Administration work is real and steady. Package logging, maintenance request follow-ups, office upkeep, and occasional after-hours lockout coverage are all part of the job. During turn periods (the intensive move-out/move-in window between leases), expect the workload to spike significantly. Availability during summer and holidays is a firm requirement.

What You Bring

• Strong interpersonal skills across a diverse resident base
• Comfort in a role where priorities shift daily
• Self-discipline and reliability without close supervision
• Availability for on-call rotation and peak seasonal periods
• Customer-first approach to every interaction, including difficult ones

Context Worth Knowing

Student housing operates on a compressed leasing calendar. Most of the year's traffic arrives in a tight window, and the ETM role sits directly in front of it. Candidates who do well here tend to build strong organizational habits early, because the volume during peak periods punishes disorganization quickly. This role also builds a transferable skill set: sales tracking, resident relations, marketing execution, and administrative systems knowledge all translate directly into assistant manager or leasing manager positions down the line. It's a genuine entry point into property management with real upward mobility for people who perform.

Scion is an established name in student housing with a national portfolio. Working at Lark Huntsville means learning student housing operations from a company with defined processes and clear standards, which tends to produce more structured training than smaller operators.
