About The Position

At Cohere, we believe community is the most valuable amenity. We do more than manage communities—we help create places where people connect, belong, and thrive.

You’ll work closely with residents, contractors, vendors, community leadership, and other stakeholders while ensuring concerns are addressed, community assets are well maintained, and operational details are followed through from start to finish. This is an opportunity to bring together community association management, facilities oversight, project coordination, leadership, and resident service in a growing large-scale community. If you’re someone who is organized, proactive, comfortable managing multiple priorities, and knows how to build strong relationships while keeping operations moving forward, we’d love to meet you.
