Leasing Consultant - Olympus Carrington

Leasing at Olympus Carrington in Pooler, GA puts you at the front door of the community, literally and figuratively. You're the first person prospects talk to, the face they remember when they decide to sign, and the contact residents reach when something feels off. It's a sales role with a hospitality backbone, and it suits people who genuinely enjoy working with strangers all day.

What You'll Actually Do

Most of your time splits between showing available homes to prospective residents, walking them through unit options, and closing leases. You'll prep paperwork before move-ins, coordinate key handoffs, and keep resident data current in the property management system. Traffic generation is part of the job too. That means visiting local businesses and locators to promote the property, not just waiting for leads to walk in.

Resident events fall under your scope as well. You'll help plan and run community functions, which adds a community-building layer on top of the sales work. After-hours availability is required monthly for those events, so your schedule isn't strictly 9-to-6 every day. Weekends are part of the standard rotation, not an occasional ask.

What You Bring

• At least one year of apartment leasing experience, or a solid background in a customer-facing sales role (restaurant, retail, and hospitality experience all transfer well here)
• Comfort closing a sale without being pushy. Prospects notice the difference.
• Strong follow-through on administrative tasks. Lease files and database entries aren't glamorous, but errors create real problems at move-in.
• Genuine interest in helping people find a home, not just filling units
• Flexibility with scheduling across weekdays, weekends, and occasional evening events

Honest Context

Pooler sits in the Savannah metro, an area that's seen steady population growth tied to logistics, manufacturing, and port activity. That means there's real leasing traffic to work with, but it also means competition from other communities is active. Strong leasing consultants in this market learn to differentiate on relationship quality, not just amenities or price.

The base pay starts at $21.00 per hour, with monthly leasing commissions and renewal bonuses on top of that. Your actual take-home depends directly on your closing rate and how many renewals you help secure. Candidates who treat the commission structure as motivation tend to outperform those who lean on the hourly rate alone. Olympus Property has held a spot on the National Apartment Association's Top Employer list three consecutive years, which reflects something real about how the company operates internally, though every community has its own team culture.

If you want a role where your results are visible and your income reflects them, this one delivers that. The work is people-heavy, the schedule includes weekends, and some days will be harder than others. That's leasing. It's also a recognized path into assistant management and beyond for those who want to grow within property management.
