Job description
Reserve Analyst
The Management Trust Position Title: Reserve Analyst Location: Dallas, Austin, or Houston, TX Reporting To: Assistant Director of Central Reserves Status: Exempt, Full-Time Salary: DOE Sign-on bonus eligible
The Management Trust is a community association management company. We believe that building and maintaining a community takes more than just hammers and nails. It takes integrity, trust, experience, and support. Our success is based on the belief that effective management anticipates our clients' needs, not merely reacts to them. We are a company of creative and committed individuals driven by grand aspirations and are proud to be the only 100% employee-owned community management firm in the nation. Our Employee Owners are encouraged to actively participate in growing our business by helping define best practices every day. It is in this spirit that we encourage you to explore this opportunity to join The Management Trust team.
Employee Owner Position Purpose: The Reserve Analyst is responsible for creating Reserve Study Reports for homeowner associations (HOAs) and Condominiums (Condos). The reserve study provides the community with a tool to adequately prepare for future expenses – specifically by outlining how the Board of Directors can anticipate the repair and/or replacement of major physical assets. This role requires a significant amount of independent judgement and discretion with respect to matters of significance, as it guides core fiscal management of both small and large-scale association budgets. The Analyst position allows someone with strong qualifications, specific to Reserve Studies and related business, to independently execute the processes, software and best practices of our centralized Reserve Team, and to further develop their experience. The Reserve Analyst will be assigned a group of divisions and be responsible for independently coordinate planning, processes and training in preparation for each reserve season. Understanding and driving efficient practices to meet the reserve service needs of the associations managed by each division is critical. When ready, the Reserve Analyst may be eligible to apply and test for the Professional Reserve Analyst (or comparable) certification.
