We are seeking a contract administrative assistant for a start-up real estate lending business. The image shown is the property underlying the first loan investment we have fundedan eight unit town home development in Southern California, where the company founder spent most of his career, before relocating to Raleigh/Durham.
The ideal person will be interested in real estate finance & investment management and open to learning the business and transitioning to full time employee if and when the opportunity arises. We are not certain how many hours per week will be required yet; the hours will likely vary from week to week based on lending activity, travel of the company owner and other factors.
This position will be mostly remote for the foreseeable future but we would like someone local to the Durham, NC area in case we open an office here.
Activities and responsibilities will vary widely and will likely include the following:
scheduling calls and meetings
coordinating with other contractors and third party service providers
helping to prepare materials for meetings
assisting with marketing
managing contacts
troubleshooting technology issues
to a limited extent, there may be administrative tasks for the founder and his spouse personally
This is a very entrepreneurial situation and requires a problem-solver who can figure out how to move forward even when there is limited direction and oversight, which may be the case at times. It is also a good way to gain experience in the real estate investment and lending field, for those who like real estate. There will be opportunities to visit properties and real estate development projects in the Triangle area, and the successful candidate will help to create documents explaining specific loans investments and their sponsors/developers.
