The Role: Tenancy Coordinator (Full Time, 37.5 Hours per week)
The Tenancy Coordinator is the operational steward of Trellis’s apartment buildings – the primary point of contact for tenants from move-in to move-out,
carrying landlord responsibility with both professionalism and genuine care.
You won’t be tied to one building. Tenancy Coordinators are a cross-building team, trained to work across all Trellis housing sites, and operating as one apartment team. This is property management with roots – where maintaining a building is inseparable from helping someone flourish.
This position is a 37.5-hour work week. A set rotation with a mix of shifts 9am-5pm and 5pm-1am.
What You’ll Do
- Build trusting, trauma-informed, respectful relationships with tenants – meeting people where they are so they feel supported, stay housed, and have the stability to grow.
- Collaborate with Case Managers, Housing Liaisons, and other program teams – sharing information within clear role boundaries so tenants experience seamless, wraparound support.
- Manage tenancies end-to-end: viewings, leases, renewals, and move-in / move-out inspections under Alberta’s RTA.
- Uphold and clearly communicate tenant rights, ensuring fair process, proper notice, and respectful treatment.
- Coordinate property maintenance – triaging requests and following work through to completion with Facilities and partners.
- Oversee general property upkeep and cleaning of common areas, and keep on-site staff spaces clean, organized, and safe.
- Coordinate unit cleaning and turnover after move-out so units are Rent Ready before relisting.
- Champion safety through routine walk-throughs, prompt hazard response, and emergency coordination.
- Track rent, issue notices, and conduct monthly Health & Safety Checks.
- Work across all buildings as one team – sharing receiving apartment calls, cross-training, and stepping in wherever needed.
- Other duties as they arise – we're always growing.
Knowledge & Experience
- Education: A degree or diploma in Human Services. Completion of a property management certificate or relevant coursework (not required but valued). Equivalencies based on experience will be considered.
- Experience: Minimum 2 years of experience in housing, residential property operations, social services, or a related field. Experience working with people and families experiencing housing instability or complex needs is a solid asset.
- Knowledge of Alberta's Residential Tenancies Act (RTA).
- Strong communication skills – clear, direct, and compassionate in all interactions, written and verbal.
- Organized and detail-oriented; able to manage multiple buildings, files, and timelines simultaneously.
- Comfortable with digital tools including Microsoft 365 (SharePoint, OneNote, Outlook, Excel) and Adobe Sign.
- Cultural humility and a genuine openness to learning – including a commitment to Truth and Reconciliation and to growing in this area over time.
- A trauma-informed and recovery-oriented approach to working with tenants – understanding the difference between compliance and connection and knowing when both matters.
- Self-directed and able to work indepen
