Host Account Manager (Remote - US only)
Candidates must be authorized to work in the US, as the employer uses E-Verify. A fast-growing affordable housing company is creating a new position to act as the main point of contact for a portfolio of property hosts on its platform. The role focuses on moving host support from reactive problem-solving to proactive, relationship-driven account management. The person in this role owns each host relationship from onboarding through long-term retention.
What you'll do
- Serve as the named primary contact for a portfolio of hosts, handling support escalations, policy questions and overall portfolio direction.
- Run intro calls for new hosts and set expectations on pricing, room standards, responsiveness and move-in requirements.
- Hold regular performance check-ins and track metrics such as occupancy, booking flags, rejection rates, move-in ratings and retention, turning them into clear next steps for hosts.
- Explain platform fee structures, payout mechanics and host policies clearly, including the reasons behind decisions.
- Investigate complex host situations, coordinate with cross-functional teams such as member support, trust and safety, payments and legal, and document outcomes accurately.
- Share recurring host feedback and trends with product, operations and leadership, and help build playbooks and talk tracks for the new function.
What you need
- 3+ years of account management, customer success or high-touch client relationship experience; background in real estate, property management, hospitality or a marketplace platform is a strong plus.
- Working knowledge of, or willingness to learn, a platform's product, fees and policies, and the judgment to know when to escalate.
- Comfortable using data to guide conversations and translate performance metrics into actions a host can take.
- Strong written and verbal communication, with the ability to stay calm and empathetic while holding firm on policy in difficult conversations.
- Highly organized, able to manage a large book of relationships without dropping high-risk accounts.
- Authorization to work in the United States; the employer participates in E-Verify.
