Job Description
UKO is expanding, and we're looking for an ambitious Community Manager to help manage the Shire Property Cluster.
This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in one of our most important property cluster developments, generating local demand, converting enquiries into residents, and delivering an exceptional leasing experience from first enquiry through to move-in.
n
This is an ideal role for someone who is
performance-driven, independent and commercially minded
, with a passion for building relationships and delivering results. It's a great opportunity to build your career in the
living sector
, working with one of Australia's leading co-living and Build-to-Rent operators.
n
This is not a support role. You'll run the leasing process end to end, from first enquiry through to move-in, with real accountability for occupancy and conversion. And because this is co-living, the relationship doesn't end at lease signing — you'll be a visible, trusted presence for residents throughout their stay.
What You'll Do n
n
Own the leasing cycle
— manage enquiries, run inspections, qualify and progress applications, negotiate and execute leases, and coordinate seamless move-ins. Conversion and speed-to-lease are your measures of success.
n
Drive occupancy and revenue
— manage your own pipeline and prioritise activity against occupancy and revenue targets.
n
Build resident relationships
— be a key point of contact from pre-arrival to departure, building the relationships that drive renewals, referrals and positive reviews.
n
Support community
— help deliver the resident events and engagement that set UKO apart. A solid community is a full community.
n
Bring market insight
— monitor demand, competitor activity and pricing, and feed your on-the-ground view into pricing and campaign decisions.
n
What You'll Bring n
n
Experience in residential leasing, real estate, PBSA, BTR or co-living, with a record of converting enquiries into signed leases (2+ years preferred)
n
A current NSW Certificate of Registration or Class 2 Real Estate Licence — or willingness to obtain one quickly (we'll fund the course)
n
The confidence to run a leasing function autonomously and be accountable for results
n
A genuine customer-service mindset — you enjoy dealing with residents and take pride in prompt, professional responses
n
Ambition to progress into property and community management
n
Why UKO n
n
Structured career progression
— we promote from within, with a defined pathway into Property & Community Manager roles
n
Ongoing training and certifications
, funded by UKO
n
Regular team and resident events
, wellness programs and an Employee Assistance Program
n
A supportive, high-performing team environment
n
