PMI Centerline Community Association Manager Columbus, OH · Full time

Apply for Community Association Manager

At PMI Centerline, we’re committed to delivering exceptional community association management through professionalism, transparency, and care. Our team partners with boards and homeowners to create well-managed, thriving communities by combining industry expertise with responsive service. We pride ourselves on a collaborative workplace culture where team members are supported, valued, and empowered to grow. If you’re passionate about making a meaningful impact and being part of a driven, people-first organization, we’d love to meet you.

About the Role 

• PMI Centerline is a premier community association management firm. Unlike traditional property management companies that overload managers, we cap our portfolios at 10 associations per manager. We believe in providing enough bandwidth to deliver exceptional service while keeping your work-life balance intact.
• At its core, this position is 80% relationship management and 20% property management. You are an account manager and advisor to Boards of Directors, managing vendor partnerships and Board dynamics–it is not on-site apartment leasing or tenant management.
• We do not require prior HOA management experience. We hire for high emotional intelligence, strong communication skills, and customer service character, then provide full paid training.

Ideal Candidate Backgrounds

• Realtors & Real Estate Professionals: Seeking predictable W2 income, better work-life balance, and leverage of their real estate knowledge.
• Hospitality & Hotel Management: Guest relations managers, supervisors, and event planners who excel at high-touch client service and staying calm under pressure.
• Customer Service & Account Managers: Client success reps, account coordinators, and service leads who thrive on building trust, managing expectations and resolving client issues.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary account advisor to 10 HOA/COA Boards of Directors.
• Lead Board meetings (typically held quarterly in the evenings) and guide community decisions.
• Oversee third-party service contracts (landscaping, pool maintenance, roofing, snow removal).
• Perform regular on-site community inspections to review vendor work and rule compliance.
• Manage community operating budgets, maintenance requests, and vendor bidding.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of professional experience in customer service, account management, hospitality, or real estate sales.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting to groups.
• Strong conflict-resolution skills and a calm, consultative demeanor.
• Valid driver’s license and reliable personal transportation for local site visits.

What We Offer

• Capped Workload: Portfolio cap of 10 associations, well below industry average, to keep your workload manageable.
• Structured Onboarding: Paid training, shadowing, and 1-on-1 mentorship from our Training Manager.
• Salary + Commissions: Competitive base salary plus direct commission earnings on managed projects and other deliverables.
• Career Growth: Clear pathways to advancement as our footprint expands across Ohio. 
• Benefits: Health insurance, 401(k) match, PTO, and mileage reimbursement for site visits.
• Hybrid Schedule: Mix of home office, field visits, and office time.

To Apply

• Submit your resume along with a short response explaining why you are looking to transition your client service or real estate skills into HOA portfolio management.
