Raine & Horne Essendon is seeking a motivated Part-Time Property Management Assistant to join our growing team.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone looking to begin or further develop a career in residential property management while maintaining part-time working hours. Based in our Essendon office, you will support our experienced property management team with inspections, maintenance coordination, tenancy administration and client enquiries.

Position details
- Part-time, with working days and hours to be agreed
- Office-based in Essendon, with local travel for property inspections
- Additional hours may occasionally be available by mutual agreement
- Potential to develop into a larger or full-time role as your experience grows
Key responsibilities
Your duties will include:
- Supporting the management of a residential property portfolio
- Conducting routine property inspections and preparing clear reports
- Coordinating maintenance and repairs with tenants, landlords and tradespeople
- Responding professionally to enquiries by phone, email and in person
