Onsite Resident Manager (Colton)

The Housing Authority of the County of San Bernardino (HACSB) is a cornerstone institution established in 1941 and recognized today as one of the most innovative housing authorities in the United States. Specializing in affordable housing, HACSB serves approximately 26,000 residents in San Bernardino County, making it the largest provider of such housing in the area. As a distinct legal entity separate from the County of San Bernardino, the agency employs around 145 skilled professionals dedicated to improving the living standards of local communities through not only housing but also by facilitating access to vital resources and services. HACSB takes immense pride in its community-focused mission and core values, which shape every staff member's role and commitment to enriching residents’ lives.

This part-time Resident Manager role is a vital component of the HACSB's Affordable Housing department under the Operations division. Offering hourly pay ranging from $16.90 to $22.35 and including a $600 sign-on bonus distributed in two installments, the position is located at the Barstow Office with job responsibilities tied to one of two properties: the Bighorn and Yosemite property or the 7th Street property, each with well-appointed manager’s units. The Resident Manager will primarily work from their on-site unit, which includes a cell phone allowance and free utilities, with periodic responsibilities at the main office. Working approximately 19 hours per week—Monday through Thursday from 9 AM to 1 PM and Fridays from 9 AM to 12 PM—the role calls for a dedicated individual who will serve as the frontline point of contact for residents, helping with rent collection, enforcing lease agreements, coordinating community activities, assisting with minor maintenance, and maintaining the overall appearance and safety of the community.

The Resident Manager plays a pivotal role in fostering a positive environment by monitoring tenant compliance, managing communications, and developing strong resident relations, thereby enhancing the quality of life within the community. Duties also include overseeing outside vendor performance, resolving on-property issues such as trash and graffiti removal, and supporting move-in and move-out processes. The position demands a hands-on approach, including light cleaning and upkeep tasks, working both indoors and outdoors, and requires the occupant to live on-site. This role is ideal for motivated candidates with experience in property management or community relations, multilingual skills are preferred but not required, and previous exposure to public housing environments is beneficial.

Candidates must pass a comprehensive pre-employment screening process that covers medical exams, background and credit checks, DMV reviews where applicable, and verification of employment eligibility. The Housing Authority of the County of San Bernardino affirms its status as an equal opportunity employer and emphasizes the importance of reasonable accommodations during the selection process for qualified applicants. Notably, this part-time position does not include employee benefits but offers significant allowances and housing conveniences that contribute to a rewarding employment package for the right individual. If you are passionate about serving the affordable housing community and have the skills to manage this important role, the HACSB invites your application before the closing date on August 2, 2026.
