Senior Property Manager

  • Location: Vancouver
  • Posting Date: April 24, 2026
  • Job Order ID: 1055765
  • Consultant: Eric Floyd
  • Industry: Real Estate
MacDonald Search Group is proud to partner with a well-established, family owned property management company in their search for a Senior Property Manager. Our client is a cornerstone of the BC residential landscape. With over five decades of success, they’ve built a diverse and growing portfolio that demands high-level strategy and a keen eye for detail.

They are looking for someone to take the reins of their residential portfolio across the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. This isn’t a "sit behind a desk" role; it’s a high-impact position for a hands on leader who knows how to balance the books, mentor a team, and keep a multi-unit machine running at peak performance.

What Your Day-to-Day Looks Like

You’ll be the bridge between high-level executive strategy and boots-on-the-ground execution. Your mission covers three main pillars:

1. Asset Management & Capital Projects
  • The Big Picture: Oversee and budget capital expenditures. You aren’t just fixing things; you’re planning the long-term lifecycle of assets.
  • The Aesthetic: Lead common area renovations that elevate the brand and resident experience.
  • The Efficiency: Drive profitability by "internalizing" services—finding smart ways to bring renovations and maintenance in-house to save costs without sacrificing quality.
2. Operational Excellence
  • The 15-Day Standard: Manage the "turnover sprint" to ensure vacant suites are pristine and market-ready within 15 days.
  • Financial Oversight: Analyze expense reports like a hawk. You’ll identify high-spend areas, hunt for efficiencies, and keep collections at 100%.
  • Market Mastery: Stay ahead of the curve by monitoring competitor rents and industry trends to ensure their portfolio remains the premier choice in BC.
3. Leadership & Mentorship
  • The Captain: Provide direction and mentorship to two Property Managers. You’re there to train, inspire, and drive growth while working alongside your team doing the day to day hands-on work.
  • Contractor Relations: Negotiate with strength. You’ll manage vendor relationships to ensure work is completed on time, on budget, and up to the company's high standards.
Who You Are

You’re a "fixer" who loves a challenge and has the track record to prove it.
  • Experienced: You have 5+ years of Property Management experience, specifically navigating the unique Vancouver/Lower Mainland market.
  • High-Volume Pro: You’ve successfully managed portfolios of 750+ units. You don’t get overwhelmed; you get organized.
  • Strategic Thinker: You look at an expense report and see opportunities, not just numbers.
  • Mobile & Ready: You have a Class 5 license, your own vehicle, and a "get it done" attitude.
  • Communicator: You possess top-tier English communication skills
Our client offers more than just a job; they offer a place to grow in a family-run organization that treats its team like family.
  • Stability: Over 50 years of growth and market presence.
  • Rewards: A generous compensation package tailored to your experience - base salary of $75,000-85,000 per year.
  • Growth: An environment that encourages you to learn and evolve your career.
