Office Administrator (Real Estate)

Posted about 2 months ago

OfficeHouston50k - 65k USD

Our SelectLeaders client is seeking an organized and proactive Office Administrator to serve as the operational backbone of our Houston headquarters. This is a highly visible role in a small, fast-moving team — you will interact with principals, outside partners, and vendors daily, and your attention to detail and reliability will directly support the ability to execute on a $1.5B+ development pipeline.

This role blends traditional office management responsibilities with transaction support duties — including DocuSign coordination, document routing to title companies and lenders, and accounts payable entry. The right person is resourceful, professional, and takes genuine ownership of the office environment.

### Job Responsibilities
  • Office Operations: Manage day-to-day office operations including supplies, vendor coordination, and facilities upkeep. Maintain a professional and organized office environment at Millennium Tower.

  • Executive & Team Support: Provide administrative support to principals and team members including scheduling, correspondence, phone and email management, and preparation for internal and external meetings.

  • Guest & Front Office Experience: Greet incoming guests and visitors professionally. Serve as the first point of contact and ensure a polished front-office experience.

  • Transaction Coordination Support: Coordinate DocuSign setup and routing for all staff. Support the transactions team by facilitating document signing and routing executed agreements to the appropriate parties — including title companies and lenders.

  • Document Management: Maintain accurate and well-organized filing systems (digital and physical). Manage incoming and outgoing communications including mail, overnight packages, and courier coordination.

  • Accounts Payable: Enter accounts payable as available; assist with invoice tracking and vendor payment coordination in support of the finance function.

  • Website Management: Maintain and update the website as needed, coordinating with leadership on content and branding.

  • Hospitality & Events: Coordinate Monday staff lunches and catering for meetings upon request. Maintain the conference room and staff kitchen to a high standard.

  • Ad Hoc Projects: Support internal projects and requests from leadership as they arise. Bring a problem-solving mindset and flexibility to a lean, entrepreneurial team.

  • ### Qualifications
  • 1–3 years of administrative, office management, or operations support experience.

  • High school diploma required; associate degree or higher preferred.

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite — Outlook, Word, Excel, and Teams — required.

  • Experience with DocuSign or similar e-signature platforms.

  • Familiarity with Adobe Acrobat and digital file management.

  • Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail and confidentiality.

  • Professional written and verbal communication skills — comfortable corresponding with lenders, title companies, and outside partners.

  • Self-starter who takes ownership of their environment and anticipates needs without being prompted.

  • ### Preferred Skills
  • Prior experience in a real estate, development, legal, or financial services office environment.

  • Familiarity with transaction coordination processes — document routing, closing timelines, title and escrow communication.

  • Experience with basic accounts payable entry or vendor invoice management.

  • Experience managing or updating a company website (WordPress or similar CMS).

  • Comfort in a fast-paced, small-team environment where priorities shift and initiative is valued.
