Property Operations Coordinator

ABOUT GUARDIAN

Guardian Property Management is a fast-growing property management company based in Fargo, ND. We manage a portfolio of long-term, mid-term, and short-term rental properties. We're a small, tight-knit team that moves fast, takes ownership seriously, and is actively expanding into new markets. This isn't a big corporate PM company. There's no bloated hierarchy and no hiding behind a job title. If you're good, you'll be trusted quickly and given real responsibility. We're growing — and we need someone who wants to grow with us.

WHAT THIS JOB ACTUALLY IS

This is a split role: roughly half your time is in the field, half is coordinating from the office. On any given day you might be doing a move-in inspection in the morning, running supplies to Airbnbs, coordinating a vendor for a work order at noon, and responding to tenant communications and/or Airbnb guest by afternoon. This job is right for you if you: Like variety and don't want to sit at a desk all day Are naturally organized and don't let things fall through the cracks Communicate clearly and quickly — in writing and in person Take ownership of your responsibilities without needing to be chased This job is not right for you if you: Need rigid structure to stay on task Go quiet when something comes up instead of communicating proactively Are looking for a low-pressure, low-accountability role

PTO A NOTE ON CULTURE

Guardian operates on a few non-negotiables: reliability, proactive communication, and a team-first mentality. We're a small team — when one person is off, everyone feels it. We don't expect perfection, but we do expect accountability. If something comes up and you're going to be late or unavailable, we need to know before 8 AM — not when someone follows up at 10. That's the standard, and it applies to everyone including leadership. If that sounds like how you already operate, you'll fit in well here. Guardian Property Management is an equal opportunity employer.
