During medical leave of previous manager in the beginning of March 2023. I stepped up to keep the office in order and maintain all aspects of property was in perfect order. I worked to manage and do my regular role as Guest Services Coordinator as well. Many things needed to be kept up with while I worked alone and I got my rhythm down swiftly to ensure business success. Decisions and vendors needed extra special attention, along with residents and guests among many things i hadnt handled previously but I found easy to do. I helped direct and keep maintenance team and housekeeper informed regarding all aspects of keeping up the property and emergencies. Assisted multiple times with after hour needs including quests locking themselves out of Vacation rentals and help with maintenance issues on weekends such as air conditioning issues during the summer months. Interim manager stepped in a few hours a week to do payroll and assist with Vacation Rental paperwork for the 4 cottages I was able to sell, and do P&L reports, CapEx and lot mods that were needed. I collect mail daily as well as check our dropbox. Use Cashpro to deposit checks to bank and make bank runs for cash deposits. I spend a lot of time with people interested in renting our RPS lots. After working my entire life in customer service I feel I have perfected skills on concentrating on each person and their wants and different personalities to help them see the excellence in being a resident at a Sun Community or Resort. Genuine caring, conversation, tone of voice make a big impact on each person. Treating people the way I would want my family or myself treated has always been my number 1 priority! Daily Reports are also completed with ease. Talking with the residents each day and being seen as a part of the entire community is very important, it is a family. It shows the residents and the quests how you genuinely care about how they are doing and how we want them all happy staying with us. I keep the lobby stocked and tidy and decorate when Holidays are coming. Assist our new manager with learning about the property, people, policies, computer programs, sales, P&L reports, hiring new team members among many things, we work side by side a lot. As well as staging homes, selling brokered homes. Keeping track of all shed keys, and mail keys and security deposits. Drive around community with Manager daily to check out the community and chat with residents and follow up on any concerns. Schedule meetings when needed. Each day is different and always interesting, the work day goes by very quickly.
