About this role
Leading operations at LightView, American Campus Communities' premier student housing community adjacent to Northeastern University, means managing every dimension of a high-performing property—from leasing and marketing strategy to facilities maintenance and resident relations. You'll oversee an onsite team, drive revenue while controlling expenses, and serve as the primary liaison between residents, university partners, and corporate leadership. This role demands someone who can balance operational excellence with genuine attention to resident experience, translating corporate priorities into actionable daily execution.
The ideal candidate brings at least three years of leadership experience in student housing, Class A multifamily, or a similarly service-intensive environment, paired with strong financial judgment and proven ability to recruit, mentor, and develop teams. You should be comfortable with leasing operations, marketing execution, vendor management, and facilities oversight—and equally skilled at handling escalated resident concerns and representing the property professionally across all stakeholder interactions. A bachelor's degree in business or a related field is preferred.
This full-time, in-office position in Boston offers a salary of $98,000 to $115,000 and the opportunity to partner directly with Asset Management on a high-value community, connecting day-to-day leadership with broader strategic goals for property performance and long-term value.
