Leasing & Property Management Traineeship

The Smart Start: Launch Your Real Estate Career

Leasing & Property Management Traineeship | Smart Rentals Townsville

Are you a recent school leaver with bigger ambitions? Do you have more energy than your phone battery at 8am? If you’re looking for a full time career path rather than just a job, Smart Rentals Property Management wants you!

We aren’t your typical real estate office. We are a high-energy, fast-paced and genuinely fun team that works hard, laughs loud and supports one another. We’re looking for our next superstar to join the "Smart" family and learn the property management game from the ground up.

The Best of Both Worlds

This is a high-stamina role where you are constantly on the move. You aren’t stuck in one place, and you won’t be sitting still for long. Your day is a fast-paced mix of:

• Office Hustle: Mastering our fast-moving tech platforms, crushing the admin and becoming a pro on the phones.
• Field Action: Racking up your step count across Townsville; jumping in and out of your car, running property opens and meeting hundreds of new faces.

The Vibe & Our Values

We live and breathe our 4 C's. If these resonate with you, you’ll fit right in:

• Care: For our properties, our clients, and each other.
• Communication: We’re the masters of the phone and the follow-up.
• Confidence: You’re empowered to make decisions and take the lead.
• Consistency: We show up and deliver, every single day.

Are You The One?

This is a role for natural extroverts; if you’re quiet or phone-shy, this won’t be your jam. You must bring the "it" factor:

• The Gift of the Gab: You love people and are a natural on the phone. You love a chat and bring positive, room-filling energy to every property open.
• Tech-Savvy: You pick up new apps, software, and systems instantly. You’re fast on a keyboard and navigate tech like a pro.
• High Energy & Stamina: You thrive on being busy and "on the go." You’re active, alert, and can keep up with a team that moves at 100 miles an hour.
• Maturity & Resilience: Real estate involves "real" discussions. You can handle a tough talk with a tenant or owner, stay level-headed, and keep it drama-free.
• Organisation: You actually use your calendar. You’re the person who gets things done before they’re even due.
• Professional Polish: Exceptional presentation is a must. You take pride in looking sharp every single day.

The Must-Haves

• A current Driver’s Licence.
• Your own reliable, well-kept vehicle (It’s your mobile office).
• Solid communication skills (You can write a professional email and hold a professional face-to-face conversation).
• Ability to commit to Full-Time hours (primarily Monday - Friday, with some Saturday work required).

What’s In It For You?

• Cert IV in Real Estate Practice: Earn a nationally recognised qualification while getting paid a full-time wage.
• Real Mentorship: Learn from Townsville’s leading property management agency.
• A Future: We aren’t just looking for an assistant; we’re training our next Property Manager. We invest in you.
• Epic Culture: A team that celebrates your wins and notices your hard work.
