Operations & Bookkeeping Coordinator | Residential Property Management | Hybrid (Davis, CA) 🏠📋

Atomic HR • Davis, CA

46d • $45,000 - $65,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Our client is a residential property management company that has been part of the Davis, California rental market for more than fifteen years. They manage single-family homes, condos, and apartments for individual owners across Davis and the greater Sacramento area, and have grown from a handful of properties to over 400 homes under management. The business is profitable and locally established, and it competes on reliability: in a market shaped by the UC Davis academic calendar, it keeps vacancy under 1% (against roughly 3% for the local market) and lease renewal rates above 75%.
The service is full-cycle residential property management. When an owner signs a management agreement, the company handles everything from marketing and leasing to rent collection, maintenance coordination, compliance, and monthly owner reporting, so the owner never has to deal directly with tenants or vendors. The team is about 10 to 15 people, office-based and organized flat, with account managers owning dedicated property portfolios, supported by accounting, maintenance coordination, and leasing. The work is fully digital, run on a property management platform, standard bookkeeping software, and shared Google Workspace drives.
As Operations & Bookkeeping Coordinator, you'll own the recurring operations and bookkeeping tasks that keep the office running, so communication, payments, records, and renewals all stay on schedule. Right now a lot of that recurring work lands on the President and the Broker directly, and this role exists to take it over and own it end to end.
This is bookkeeping-level support, not full-cycle accounting. You'll assist the accounting function with invoices, receipts, rent posting, deposit tracking, and reconciliation help, rather than owning the books yourself. You'll report to the Principal Broker and work day to day with the President and the Office and Accounting Manager. Success means leadership can hand off a recurring task and trust it comes back done, without re-checking.
