Roger Smith
Estate Manager
Brickell,Florida
Summary
Experienced Estate Manager with over 5 years of experience in Estate Management and 5 years of Ultra Luxury Condominium Management seeking new opportunities.
My name is Roger Smith, and I am a positive and diligent professional. I work daily with a world renowned hotelier who is currently the Chairman and CEO of a publicly traded REIT. Working closely with him I have developed a keen sense of design and architectural aesthetic along with some business experience to supplement my background in the management field. Throughout the years I have been exposed to and participated in high level planing and design of buildings and homes, multi-million dollar construction improvements, landscaping and interior design meetings, build-outs, private aviation travel, meetings with high level executives and more, all while carrying out my primary role as an Estate Manager.
I truly believe my experience has prepared me well to handle any task.
