John M. Corcoran & Company has been managing residential communities across New England since 1951, and Amherst Park in Nashua reflects that long track record. This part-time Resident Services Coordinator role sits at the intersection of property management and social services, a combination that's genuinely uncommon and genuinely important at communities serving mixed-income and subsidized residents.
The core of the job is connecting residents to the right resources at the right time. That means building and sustaining relationships with local service providers covering youth programs, family support, employment assistance, education, and mental health services. You'll conduct needs assessments, facilitate community meetings, and help residents identify goals and access programs that move them forward. When property management flags a concern about a resident household, you'll be the person who can assess the situation, document it accurately, and coordinate an appropriate response.
Budget management is part of this role too. You'll help maintain the funding that keeps the resident services program running, which includes identifying additional funding sources and keeping the program aligned with its stated objectives. This isn't a passive coordination role. It requires someone who can think strategically about program sustainability while staying responsive to individual resident needs on a day-to-day basis.
The schedule runs Monday and Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., totaling 20 hours per week. Pay ranges from $23.75 to $29.00 per hour.
Nashua has a notably diverse population for a city its size, with significant immigrant communities and a range of income levels across its neighborhoods. A candidate who already has relationships with Nashua-area service providers, or who knows the local landscape of agencies and nonprofits, will be able to hit the ground running in a way that someone building those connections from scratch simply can't.
The strongest candidates for this kind of role typically combine genuine empathy with strong organizational discipline. Resident services work can get emotionally heavy, and the ability to document incidents clearly, maintain appropriate professional boundaries, and follow through on referrals and follow-ups is what separates effective coordinators from well-intentioned ones.
