Job description:
Build Your Career. Manage Great Properties. Have Fun Doing It.
Kokua Realty is growing—and we’re looking for a great Property Manager to grow with us!
We’re seeking an experienced, energetic, and solutions-oriented Commercial Property Manager to join our Maui team and manage a portfolio of office, retail, and industrial properties.
If you enjoy working with people, solving problems, building relationships, and taking ownership of results, this could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.
Why Kokua Realty?
At Kokua, we’re serious about real estate—but we believe work should be fun, rewarding, and meaningful.
We’re a growing Hawaii-based, full-service real estate company where property management works alongside brokerage, construction, maintenance, janitorial, landscaping, and real estate services to deliver exceptional results for our clients.
You’ll work with a collaborative team, have access to multiple real estate disciplines, and have opportunities to learn, grow, take on new challenges, and advance your career.
What You’ll Do
You’ll be the go-to person for your properties, owners, and tenants.
Your responsibilities will include:
· Manage the day-to-day operations of assigned commercial properties.
· Build strong, long-term relationships with property owners and tenants.
· Understand each owner’s investment objectives and help develop strategies to achieve them.
· Prepare and manage operating budgets, monitor expenses, and help maximize property performance.
· Oversee rent collection, CAM reconciliations, financial reporting, and accounts receivable.
· Prepare clear and timely monthly reports and recommendations for owners.
· Manage leases, renewals, critical dates, tenant compliance, and lease obligations.
· Respond to tenant needs and create an exceptional tenant experience.
· Conduct regular property inspections and ensure properties are professionally maintained.
· Coordinate maintenance, preventative maintenance, vendors, contractors, and capital projects.
· Solicit and evaluate competitive bids and ensure vendors deliver quality work at competitive costs.
· Identify problems before they become expensive problems—and find solutions.
· Work closely with Kokua’s accounting, construction, maintenance, and real estate teams.
· Help onboard new properties and contribute to improving our systems and processes.
· Represent Kokua Realty professionally and consistently deliver on our values.
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who is smart, organized, proactive, personable, and accountable.
Required:
· 2+ years of property management experience.
· Commercial property management experience preferred.
· Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
· Knowledge of Hawaii landlord-tenant laws and property management requirements.
· Strong organizational and financial skills.
· Valid Hawaii driver’s license and reliable transportation.
· Hawaii real estate license or ability to obtain one within 60 days of hire.
Nice to Have:
· Experience with Yardi or similar property management software.
· Experience with office, retail, or industrial properties.
· Experience with budgets, CAM reconciliations, lease administration, and financial reporting.
· IREM/CPM designation or other professional real estate credentials.
What We Offer
$70,000–$95,000 DOQ
Plus:
· 401(k) with company matching
· Medical, dental & vision insurance
· Paid time off
· Professional development and continuing education
· Career advancement opportunities
· Hybrid work environment
· A collaborative, entrepreneurial team
· The opportunity to work across multiple areas of commercial real estate
· A workplace where your ideas, initiative, and results matter
Schedule & Work Environment
· Full-time, Monday–Friday
· Hybrid work environment based in our Maui offices (hybrid, Wailea and Wailuku)
· Combination of office work, property inspections, tenant and owner meetings, and field work
· Regular travel throughout Maui as required to visit properties
· Occasional evenings, weekends, emergency response, or on-call availability as operational needs require
Why This Opportunity Is Different
At a large national firm, you can become a small part of a very large organization.
At Kokua Realty, you’ll have the opportunity to make a real impact.
You’ll work directly with owners, tenants, contractors, and leadership. You’ll have access to our broader real estate platform. And you’ll have the opportunity to help build something special as Kokua continues to grow throughout Hawaii.
You don't have to manage problems alone. You have an entire real estate platform behind you including Property Management + Brokerage + Construction + Facility Maintenance.
If you’re ready to take ownership, grow your career (we will support you with obtaining your CPM designation), and have some fun along the way, we’d love to meet you.
