Property Manager

What This Role Demands Daily

This is a full P&L ownership role. You're responsible for occupancy, NOI, client reporting, and team performance at a Bozzuto community in Sunnyvale. The job pulls on financial acumen, leadership, and sales skills in roughly equal measure. If any one of those three is weak, the other two won't compensate.

Day to day, you're reading your T-12, reviewing delinquency, tracking traffic and conversion, and making sure your make-ready pipeline stays clean. You're also the primary relationship owner with the client, which means your financial and operational reports need to be accurate and on time, not approximate and late. Bozzuto manages for third-party clients, so that client relationship carries real weight.

One weekend per month is required. You get two weekdays off in exchange. That's a fair trade, but it's worth knowing upfront.

Skills That Drive Performance Here

• Four-year degree or equivalent experience, plus five or more years in property management, hospitality, or retail
• Demonstrated P&L management and budget accountability
• Yardi proficiency preferred; comfort with financial reporting is non-negotiable
• Strong written and verbal communication, particularly with clients and ownership groups
• Active real estate license, or willingness to obtain one within 90 days of hire
• A proven record of developing and retaining on-site team members

What separates strong candidates from average ones here is the ability to hold the financial side and the culture side simultaneously. Some managers are sharp on budgets but checked out on their team. Others are beloved by residents but can't explain a variance report. Bozzuto places real emphasis on both, and their client-facing reporting expectations will expose gaps quickly.

What's Distinctive About This Role

Sunnyvale sits in the heart of Silicon Valley, where Class A apartment demand correlates tightly with tech hiring cycles. A property manager here needs solid competitive market intelligence because concession strategies and renewal pricing can shift fast when major employers announce layoffs or expansions. Knowing your submarket isn't optional.

Bozzuto's culture is well-documented in the industry. They invest in career development and tuition reimbursement, and they promote from within more consistently than many large operators. For a property manager who wants a path toward regional or portfolio oversight, the infrastructure is there. The salary range is $80,000 to $90,000, with bonus eligibility on top of that, plus a benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, 20 days of PTO, and 401k with company match.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to delegate and disappear. Bozzuto's model expects managers to work alongside their teams, not above them. If that's how you already operate, you'll fit here quickly.
