Asset Manager

About the role

The Asset Manager owns a portfolio two high rise office buildings in San Antonio as well as a portfolio of shallow bay flex industrial assets and is fully accountable for performance — NOI growth, leasing velocity, capital deployment, and value creation through hold and at exit. The role partners closely with Property Management, Construction Management, Acquisitions, Accounting, and Investor Relations to drive each asset's business plan from acquisition through disposition. This is a hands-on role for someone who can think like an owner.

This role is based either in Entrada's San Antonio or Dallas office. The position is in-office Monday through Thursday, with the option to work from home on Fridays. There will be periodic travel within Texas and to Atlanta, Georgia for property tours, broker meetings, and diligence.
