Blanton Turner • Seattle, WA

just now • $41 - $43 • Hybrid

About The Position

Blanton Turner is seeking a highly organized and proactive property management professional for a unique hybrid opportunity that begins as a temporary Flex Property Manager role and transitions into a permanent, full-time Centralized Property Manager position. As the Centralized Property Manager, you will support multi-family property management teams across our portfolio by handling key operational responsibilities traditionally managed onsite — including property walks, customer service escalations, move-in and move-out coordination, ownership communication, and pricing support. By centralizing these functions, you will help create consistency, improve response times, and drive resident retention and ownership satisfaction. You will partner closely with Portfolio Manager(s) to ensure properties are operating smoothly, residents are supported, and key tasks are completed accurately and on time. Until the Centralized Property Manager portfolio reaches full unit-count capacity, you will perform Flex Team coverage and project work concurrently with your centralized duties. The ideal candidate has property management experience, is comfortable managing a high volume of tasks, and brings a strong sense of ownership, organization, and follow-through.
