Job Description

Casual Property Management & Guest Services Assistant

n

AirKeeper is a fast-growing property management company specialising in short-term rentals, furnished accommodation and long-term property management across Australia.

n

We are looking for a motivated and people-focused individual to join our Melbourne team on a casual basis, approximately 2–3 days per week.

n

This is a great opportunity for someone who is interested in building a career in real estate, property management, short-term rentals or hospitality.

n

The role is genuinely hybrid , combining elements of traditional property management with the fast-paced, guest-focused environment of short-term accommodation.

n

For the right person, there is the opportunity to increase days over time and potentially progress into a full-time role as the portfolio grows.

n

About the Role

n

You will work closely with our Melbourne property management team and assist with a portfolio of both short-term and long-term rental properties.

n

Your week may include a mix of office-based work, property visits and work around Melbourne.

n

Responsibilities may include:

n

n
- Assisting Property Managers with the day-to-day management of a portfolio
n
- Helping coordinate maintenance, cleaners, contractors and suppliers
n
- Conducting or assisting with property inspections
n
- Supporting long-term rental inspections and open homes
n
- Assisting with property onboarding and preparing new properties for guests or tenants
n
- Communicating with property guests, tenants and contractors
n
- Checking property presentation and ensuring our service standards are maintained
n
- Helping resolve issues quickly in a fast-paced environment
n
- General property management and administration support
n

Why Short-Term Rental Property Management Is Different

n





Short-term property management sits between real estate and hospitality.

n

You are not simply managing a property — you are also managing guest experiences, bookings, maintenance, property presentation and owner relationships.

n

It is a dynamic environment and a excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys:

n

n
- Real estate
n
- Travel and hospitality
n
- Working with people
n
- Problem-solving
n
- Being out of the office
n
- Working in a fast-moving environment where every day can be different
n

n

What We Are Looking For

n

We are looking for someone who is:

n

n
- Interested in developing a long-term career in real estate or property management
n
- Friendly, confident and comfortable dealing with different people
n
- Highly organised and able to manage multiple priorities
n
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
n
- Practical and solutions-focused
n
- Reliable and able to work independently when required
n
- Comfortable working both from the office and on the road
n
- Passionate about property, travel and hospitality
n

n

Previous experience in real estate, property management, short-term rentals or hospitality would be highly regarded, but we are also open to someone with the right attitude who is looking to develop their career.

n

Essential Requirements

n

n
- Current driver's licence
n
- Access to a reliable vehicle
n
- Ability to travel around Melbourne for property visits, inspections and open homes
n
- Availability approximately 2–3 days per week
n




- Flexibility around working days where operationally required
n

n

A Victorian real estate qualification or Agent's Representative Certificate would be highly regarded, or you must be willing to obtain the required qualification if necessary.

n

Location & Working Arrangement

n

Our Melbourne office is located in North Melbourne.

n

The role will involve a combination of:

n

n
- Working from our North Melbourne office
n
- Visiting properties across Melbourne
n
- Attending inspections and open homes
n
- Some flexibility to work remotely depending on the day's responsibilities
n

n

This is not a purely office-based position, so you should enjoy being out and about and interacting with people.

n

Career Development

n

This position is designed to grow with the right person.

n

Initially, the role will be approximately 2–3 days per week, supporting the existing team and learning both short-term and long-term property management.

n

As the portfolio grows, there may be opportunities to:

n

n
- Increase your working days
n
- Take greater responsibility for your own portfolio
n
- Develop into a Property Manager role
n
- Move into a permanent full-time position
n

n

We are looking for someone who wants more than just a casual job — ideally someone who sees this as the beginning of a career in property management.

n

What We Offer

n

n
- Exposure to both short-term and long-term property management
n
- A varied role combining real estate and hospitality
n
- Training and support from an experienced national team
n
- Flexible casual working arrangement
