Property Coordinator
Full-Time | West Edmonton (with travel to Sherwood Park and North Edmonton | In-Office
Build Strong Communities. Make a Meaningful Difference.
Are you an experienced property management or housing professional who enjoys working with people, supporting Boards, and taking ownership of property operations?
Our client, a well-established non-profit organization supporting housing co-operatives in the Edmonton area, is seeking an experienced Property Coordinator to support two established housing co-operative communities - one in North Edmonton and one in Sherwood Park.
This is not an entry-level administrative position. The successful candidate will bring a strong foundation in property management, housing, condominium management, or a related environment, along with sound judgment, initiative, professionalism, and a genuine interest in continuing to learn and develop.
While direct co-operative housing experience is an asset, it is not required. The organization will provide training and support to help the successful candidate develop their knowledge of the co-operative housing model.
If you’re looking for a role where your property management experience can have a direct and meaningful impact on the people and communities you serve, we’d love to hear from you.

- Provide Boards with clear information regarding property operations, maintenance, financial information, and other matters requiring informed decision-making.

The successful candidate will bring:
