Job Description
Property Managers | Newcastle & Hunter Valley
n
Property Management can feel like a thankless job. And a lot of the time, it comes down to the same things - unrealistic workloads, poor systems, disjointed team structures and simply not having enough time to properly manage the portfolio in front of you.
n
When you're juggling 200+ properties, constantly putting out fires, chasing maintenance, answering emails and dealing with competing demands from tenants and landlords, it's pretty hard to feel like you're actually doing a good job - let alone building genuine relationships with the people you manage properties for.
n
And that's not how Property Management should have to feel.
n
Our client has built their Property Management teams around a different philosophy.
n
Keep the portfolios manageable. Give good Property Managers the autonomy to actually manage their own portfolios. And, importantly, have the right people and support around them when they need it.
n
The opportunity...
n
Our client is a well-established real estate group with presence across the Hunter, Newcastle and Central Coast regions. While the group is large, each office operates with a small, close-knit Property Management team, giving you the backing and resources of a major franchise while retaining the personal feel of a local office.
n
What's on offer...
n
n
A manageable portfolio — capped at 150 properties, with workloads structured around team and experience.
n
Autonomy without isolation — trusted to get on with the job, with an experienced Head of Department available when you need them. No micromanagement, no constant hand-holding.
n




A dedicated PM Relief Specialist — an experienced Property Manager who is a genuine part of the team, stepping in to cover leave, unexpected absences and busy periods. Your portfolio stays in capable hands, even when you're away — and you won't come back to 500 unanswered emails.
n
General accounting covered — so you can focus on Property Management rather than back-end administration.
n
PropertyMe — established systems and processes already in place.
n
Big-brand backing, small-team feel — access to the wider network, systems and resources without losing the personal feel of your local office.
n
Immediate opportunities available — 2x Property Manager positions are currently available, with portfolios to be allocated across Newcastle and the Hunter Valley.
n
$90,000-$100,000 inclusive of super, depending on experience.
n
Company vehicle available — with the option to negotiate this into your package if preferred.
n
Bonus structure being introduced to recognise exceptional performance, with additional earning potential up to $500/month.
n
Team building and wider franchise events — the fun stuff, without the forced "team bonding" for the sake of it.
n
n
The role...
n




This is a genuine end-to-end Property Management position for someone comfortable managing their portfolio independently.
n
You'll be responsible for:
n
n
Managing your residential portfolio from start to finish
n
Building strong relationships with landlords and tenants
n
Managing maintenance, repairs and contractors
n
Conducting your own routine inspections
n
Managing leases, renewals, terminations, arrears and tenancy matters
n
Handling enquiries, issues and escalations
n
Ensuring compliance with NSW legislation
n
Keeping owners informed and delivering a high level of service
n
n
Who we would love to talk to...
n
We're looking for experienced Property Managers who are competent, capable and comfortable running their own portfolio — AND want better.
n
You'll ideally bring:
n
n
2+ years' Property Management experience with strong end-to-end knowledge
n
Confidence working independently across the full PM lifecycle
n
Solid knowledge of NSW tenancy legislation
n
Excellent organisation, communication and problem-solving skills
n
A genuine focus on landlord and tenant relationships
n
A willingness to remain hands-on, including conducting your own inspections
n
Current NSW Certificate of Registration or Licence
n
Current driver's licence and reliable vehicle
n
n
Most importantly, you know your stuff.
n
You know how to prioritise, communicate before you're chased, make decisions and get on with the job. You're comfortable working independently, but know when to ask for support.
n
Next steps...
