At Percy, we're building new ways to connect talented professionals with meaningful career opportunities at leading companies in the multifamily industry. We're currently seeking a high-performing Leasing Manager to help drive pre-leasing and lead the leasing office at a brand-new student housing community near Florida State University in Tallahassee, FL.

This is a rare chance to be the #2 leader on site for a ground-up student lease-up, selling from renderings through stabilization in one of the most competitive student housing markets in the country. You’ll run day-to-day leasing execution, support market strategy and reporting, and manage a high-energy team of part-time leasing staff, with marketing and social media support already in place.

If you'd like to be considered, please submit a resume for review.

Responsibilities

  • Lead leasing performance for a 500+ bed student housing new development from pre-leasing through stabilization

  • Manage, coach, and hold accountable a team of part-time leasing staff (approximately 5 to 10 team members)

  • Drive tour-to-lease conversion by confidently selling a not-yet-delivered product using renderings and future-state storytelling

  • Support leasing admin, reporting, and market/competitor analysis to inform weekly strategy adjustments

  • Partner closely with the on-site lease-up leader to execute leasing goals and maintain a high-performing office culture

Qualifications

  • Student housing leasing experience (required) with a measurable track record of results

  • Prior experience leading or supervising leasing staff, including part-time or early-career team members

  • Comfort operating in a fast-paced lease-up environment with full-time availability (35+ hours/week) and overtime as needed

  • Strong communication skills and confidence presenting to student and parent prospects

  • Lease-up and/or new development experience is a plus (not required)

Perks

  • Total compensation range of approximately $55,000 to $70,000 (base plus bonus and overtime potential); top end includes up to $28/hour base pay plus a $3,500 bonus opportunity

  • Opportunity to help build a new community from the ground up and directly impact leasing outcomes

  • Clear runway for growth into broader site operations as the community delivers and stabilizes

  • Full benefits package including all major insurance, 401k, and PTO

  • Work for a nationwide company that can offer growth and stability
