Key Responsibilities:

  • Legal Compliance: Maintain a deep understanding of the Illinois Condominium Property Act, Common Interest Community Act, and local ordinances, as well as each Association's governing documents.
  • Financial Management: Process invoices, analyze financial statements, address delinquencies, manage cash flow, and draft annual budgets.
  • Property Oversight: Inspect properties, secure bids, negotiate contracts, and supervise maintenance, repair, and construction projects.
  • Board Collaboration: Prepare agendas, board packets, and facilitate quarterly board meetings.
  • Staff Management: Recruit, train, manage, and oversee building staff, both union and non-union.
  • Conflict Resolution: Investigate and resolve complaints, disturbances, and violations.
  • Effective Communication: Utilize your expertise to keep the Board of Directors informed and make recommendations regarding Association matters. Communicate clearly with the Board, internal departments, and external vendors.

Required Skills:

  • Relevant coursework or classes at the secondary or college level

Work Schedule:

This is a full-time position with regular hours from Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. While some evening meetings are required, we provide comp time to ensure work-life balance.
