Executive Project Manager

About Clay Realty Co.

Clay Realty Co. is a vertically integrated real estate management company based in Raleigh, NC. We own and operate across the full real estate lifecycle: residential property management (CRC), resident apartment maintenance (CRC Maintenance), commercial, acquisitions, and residential sales.. all under one roof.

We're growing fast, and we're looking for a sharp, organized Executive Project Manager to help us build the infrastructure for that next chapter. Our website showcases our residential property management work, but this role touches every business branch, so you'll get a front-row seat to how a multi-division real estate company actually runs.

The Role

As Executive Project Manager, you'll be the connective tissue across our business lines. You'll keep projects moving, systems humming, and leadership focused on what matters most. This isn't a siloed role. One day you might be coordinating an acquisitions timeline, the next you're streamlining a maintenance workflow or helping commercial hit a deadline.

You'll report directly to ownership and work closely with team leads across every division.

What You'll Do

• Manage and prioritize projects across residential property management, commercial, acquisitions, and maintenance
• Build and maintain spreadsheets, trackers, and dashboards that keep the business organized
• Support leadership with operational planning, reporting, and follow-through
• Coordinate between divisions. Making sure hand-offs don't fall through the cracks
• Help develop processes and documentation as the company scales
• Jump in wherever the business needs you. This role rewards initiative

What We're Looking For

Required:

• Bachelor's degree
• 5+ years of experience in a professional office setting
• Real estate industry experience
• Strong organization, written communication, and follow-through
• Comfort working in-office 4 days a week in Raleigh

Nice to have:

• Light accounting familiarity (AP/AR, basic bookkeeping concepts)
• Formal project management experience (PMP a plus but not required)
• Proficiency with Google Drive and Google Sheets
• Experience in a multi-division or fast-growing company

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: $65,000 – $85,000, based on experience
• Time off: 10 days PTO + 11 paid holidays
• Health: Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Schedule: 75% in-office in Raleigh; 25% flexible
• The intangibles: Direct access to ownership, broad exposure across real estate disciplines, and a real chance to grow with the company
