IF YOU DO NOT HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH REAL ESTATE MAINTENANCE ADMIN/MANAGEMENT, DO NOT APPLY.
Thank you.
We need someone who doesn't buckle under pressure, who follows up relentlessly, who can talk (and listen!) calmly, even when the person they're talking to isn't calm. Someone who tackles every problem with the resolve to make it not a problem anymore. Someone who understands what *urgent* means and will commit to following up an urgent situation *several times a day* in order to get it resolved. In short, we need a Paladin.
Preferably, a Paladin with experience using PropertyWare, but at minimum a Paladin that has been in a position to call contractors, arrange jobs, and follow through to make sure those jobs are done, whether it's been live or remote.
OK, onto the "real" part:
This opening is for a full-time, long-term/permanent telecommuting position working on the Marketing team of a property management company in the United States (Eastern Standard Time). We pay via PayPal, offer vacation pay, 13th month, and we give Filipino holidays off.
The company requires that you be willing and able to work (and be available for contact via

Social and Cultural Expectations
Above all else, our company is looking for someone who is willing and able to actively engage with their job. We are looking for someone who responds to an unexpected complication by thinking the situation through, and if an answer isn't forthcoming, provides the team leader with their thoughts on the matter along with their question(s). We are decidedly NOT looking for someone who wants a job where every situation has an 'autopilot response,' and hopes to escalate any complexities to the boss right off the bat.
We are looking for someone who is willing and able to work with peers, clients, tenants, and vendors who operate under an extremely direct, 'no-nonsense' urban-American set of cultural norms. The boss often asks direct, sometimes uncomfortable questions and you must be willing to answer under pressure, even if that answer is "I don't know" or "I screwed up."
However, we also want a worker who is looking for more than just a short- or even medium-term contract job. We are a growing company, and we hope that each person we hire will be with us for years to come. We are also a 'work hard, play hard' environment, where people who shine are openly commended, and winning a big contest often means getting together with all of the other remote workers from your city and the surrounding areas for dinner on us.
