About this role

Redstone Residential, one of the largest third-party student housing operators in the U.S., is hiring a Leasing Specialist for their Chicago property. You'll handle day-to-day leasing and administrative work—assisting residents and prospects with rent payments, ledger questions, and community inquiries while working toward team leasing goals. The role sits at the intersection of customer service and sales, requiring you to stay organized, communicate clearly, and maintain composure during busy periods. Note that this position requires you to live onsite at the community.

The ideal candidate has one to two years of customer service or sales experience and strong communication skills. Familiarity with property management software like Entrata is a plus but not required. You'll need solid computer skills, a high school diploma, and a genuine commitment to service—this is a team-oriented environment where your ability to collaborate and stay calm under pressure matters as much as your technical abilities.

At $18 per hour with performance bonuses, the role includes comprehensive benefits: health, vision, and dental insurance; 15 days of PTO plus 10 paid holidays; 401(k) matching up to 6%; paid parental leave; and access to a continued education program. This is a full-time, non-exempt position suited to someone early in their career or looking to build experience in residential property management within a growing company.
