Job Description
RentSetGo is a growing Ottawa property management company. We look after rental units for local and out-of-town owners, and we run the business on clear systems and clean records. We're hiring a part-time Maintenance & Support Coordinator to be the first point of contact when a tenant reports a problem, and the person who makes sure it gets fixed properly, on budget, and with owner's approval. This is a coordination role, not a trades role. Hands-on work is limited to minor items like replacing smoke alarm batteries. Everything else, you organize.
What You'll Do
• Receive maintenance requests by ticket, email, telephone, and log them right away with property, unit, tenant, issue, photos, and access windows.
• Respond to tenants promptly, same day for urgent issues and within 24-48 hours for routine requests, and keep them updated until job is closed.
• Triage every request as emergency, urgent, or routine, and escalate appropriately.
• Prepare approval requests for owners with clear scope, recommended trade, estimated cost and timeline.
• Book work with our approved trades, verify licensing and insurance for recent vendors, and confirm pricing before work starts.
• Coordinate access between tenants and trades following our access-control procedures.
• Confirm trade's arrival and completion, collect post-work photos, and verify with tenant that issue is resolved.
• Close out tickets with notes and photos, and send owners a completion update.
• Forward trade invoices to our admin team for payment.
• Conduct twice-yearly visual walkthroughs of each property, prepare written report with photos for owner, and coordinate any repairs identified.
• Flag repeat issues or patterns to management. What We're Looking For
• 2+ years in property management, maintenance coordination, dispatching, or a trades-adjacent office role.
• Highly organized and detail-oriented; you document as you go.
• Clear, friendly, firm communicator with tenants, contractors, and owners by phone and email.
• Practical understanding of residential plumbing, heating, and electrical issues, enough to triage and explain them.
• Cost-conscious and comfortable saying no to work that hasn't been approved.
• Valid Ontario driver's licence and your own car — you will be travelling to properties across Ottawa.
• Legally entitled to work in Canada.
• A clear police record check is required as a condition of employment. Nice to have
• Bilingual English/French.
• Experience with BuildingStack or similar property management software.
• Background in a trade, construction, or a landlord/tenant setting.
What We Offer
• $30/hour.
• Vacation pay and statutory holidays as per Ontario employment standards.
• Flexible schedule that fits around school, another job, or a growing family.
• Work from home for most of the role.
• Room to grow into a full-time property management position as our portfolio expands.
• Small team, direct access to the owner, no bureaucracy.
