Property management at Jeff Jones Real Estate

Join Our Team

Property Manager

Career change welcome, with full training provided. Already managing property? We’d like to hear from you too. Choose the path that fits and the application questions change to match.

About the role

Great real estate careers start with relationships.

This role suits someone who is good with people and wants a long-term career in property management. You don’t need to have worked in real estate. You’ll learn how we do it through a structured induction, hands-on work with experienced team members and external training.

Our owners are our clients. Your job is to manage their tenancy for them and be the person they trust, so they’re never left chasing.

What the job involves

The role, and what it means for you

What you’ll be doing

For owners
  • Being their trusted point of contact: keeping them informed, answering their questions and getting their instructions
  • Managing their tenancy obligations: knowing what’s due and when, staying ahead of it, and keeping the owner informed so nothing catches them by surprise
  • Balancing rental income with keeping a good tenant, and talking through the options with the owner, including at lease renewal
For tenants
  • Being their point of contact for requests and concerns about their home, and responding promptly
  • Organising repairs with our trusted tradespeople and keeping tenants updated until it’s done
  • Remembering that it’s their home: treating every request with care and explaining clearly what happens next
Behind the scenes
  • Learning Queensland tenancy law and our compliance processes, so that every property’s obligations are met and tracked
  • Using our systems and processes to keep track of what’s due, so important things aren’t missed
A typical day
A call with an owner about a repair quote, arranging a tradesperson for a tenant’s leaking tap, following up a tenant who is behind on rent, and checking that nothing is due on your properties this week.

Your first 12 months

  • 3 to 6 months: Take on more of the portfolio yourself, with support on complex situations.
