Regional Manager

Regional Manager

An established manufactured housing operator with a growing Midwest portfolio is hiring a Regional Manager to run day-to-day operations across its communities. The company has a disciplined, capital-backed acquisition strategy and is on track to grow from roughly 6-7 properties to around 20 within the next year and a half, including a 450-unit community closing this fall in the Chicago area. Ownership stays out of day-to-day operations by design this role runs the business, with ownership in a support and capital-allocation role.

What You'll Do

• Oversee daily operations across a multi-site manufactured housing portfolio, currently around 550 units and expanding through acquisition
• Lead the integration of newly acquired communities onto company systems and standards, including a 450-unit property closing this fall
• Manage and develop the on-site team a mix of full-time and part-time community managers, some living on site, supported by virtual assistants who handle leasing and back-office work
• Drive occupancy across the portfolio, from established, stabilized communities to newly acquired ones still ramping up
• Oversee lot lease operations, where residents own their homes and lease the land, including roads, common areas, and community infrastructure
• Identify and execute value-add opportunities, including converting park-owned homes to rentable lots and community capital improvement projects
• Coordinate with manufacturers on in-filling vacant lots with new home inventory
• Track performance in RentManager and report on occupancy, budget, and portfolio health to ownership
• Serve as the operational lead on new acquisitions, standing up staffing, systems, and processes as each community comes online

Why You Matter

This is a genuine operating leadership role on a portfolio that's actively growing through acquisition. You'd be the person ownership trusts to run the business day to day keeping existing communities performing while bringing new acquisitions up to standard, and giving ownership the confidence to keep executing on its growth plan.

• Familiarity with RentManager or a comparable property management system
• Strong occupancy and leasing fundamentals across both stabilized and lease-up communities

• Financial fluency budgeting, reporting, and presenting portfolio performance to ownership
• Genuine interest in operating within a growth-through-acquisition environment
