Role Overview
As a Resident Experience Manager, you lead all associates onsite in the development and implementation of strategic resident services programs for a multimillion dollar, multifamily apartment home community.

The Resident Ambassador

• Go beyond expectations to make living at your community relaxed, easy, and unlike any other apartment experience

• Represent the Cortland brand by embodying our mission, vision, and values – and infusing them into resident programs and relations
• Manage resident communication initiatives, effectively identifying and sharing meaningful information

The Data Driver

• Keep your finger on the pulse of resident satisfaction levels to make sure we are delivering everything our residents expect
• Update and monitor performance management dashboards that measure renewal rates, resident satisfaction, move-ins/move-outs, traffic activity, closing ratios, application statuses, and other key community metrics

The Team Player

• Guide your team in the creation of meaningful resident experience programs by creating tactical plans and evaluating community performance

• Partner with teams from other communities to deepen the company's relationship with residents and achieve resident retention goals
• Serve as a go-to resource for community teams and portfolio leadership

The Impact You Can Make

• Your team is ground zero for great ideas that spread to our other communities in the region.
• Colleagues seek your advice on how to best deploy project/program management technology to enhance their operational performance.
