166 Residential Property jobs in South Africa

Do you have the rare ability to see both the big picture and the fine print, and the drive to turn strategy into action without missing a beat?

If so, you might be exactly who this high-impact property organisation, based in the heart of Johannesburg, is looking for. With thousands of affordable residential units under management, this team has been shaping communities and transforming inner-city living for decades. But they're not standing still, they're gearing up for the next chapter, and they need a Property Executive who's ready to grab the reins and lead from the front.

Reporting directly to the CEO, you will be responsible for delivering a clearly defined property strategy while managing a number of interdependent teams, including Property Management, Repairs and Maintenance, Cleaning, Security, Projects, and Health and Safety. Your focus will be on aligning building performance with long-term sustainability goals, improving occupancy, reducing arrears, managing utility usage and recoveries, and raising the bar on tenant service, all while tightening policies, strengthening governance, and sharpening reporting structures.

Already unified through the use of MDA property software, you will drive integration across departments, tightening controls and strengthening operational alignment across the portfolio. You'll assess what's working, identify what's not, and implement smarter ways of working that improve efficiency, reduce risk, and enhance the tenant experience. From financial reporting and arrears management to utility recoveries and contractor performance, your influence will be felt across every part of the operation. This is a role for someone who thrives on clarity, accountability, and results - a systems thinker who understands that sustainable impact lies in the detail.

You'll oversee the full property management function, ensuring buildings remain financially sustainable, properly maintained, and fully compliant with statutory obligations. This includes managing service providers, overseeing reactive and planned maintenance, driving performance across teams, and ensuring tenants receive responsive, high-quality service. You'll also represent the organisation in key external forums, engaging with metro officials and industry stakeholders, and building relationships that support long-term goals.

To succeed in this role, you'll need a Bachelor's Degree in Property, Commerce or a related field, at least ten years of senior-level experience managing diverse property portfolios. A minimum of five years in a leadership position is essential, with a solid track record in people management, financial controls, operational delivery, and risk management. Experience in Affordable Residential Housing will be highly advantageous, along with strong systems thinking and the ability to lead multidisciplinary teams through growth and change.

This is more than a job - it's a chance to make a lasting impact on how property is managed in one of South Africa's most dynamic urban environments. You'll work alongside a forward-thinking CEO, lead a team ready for transformation, and contribute to an organisation whose mission genuinely matters.

If you're ready to lead with purpose, and help shape the future of urban living, this could be your next big move.
