Senior Associate, Asset Management

🚨 We’re hiring: Senior Associate, Asset Management (Multifamily)

📍 Bethesda, MD (Hybrid - 3 days office, 2 days remote)

Urban Atlantic, one of Greater Washington DC's most active real estate development firms, is seeking a Senior Associate to join our team in a dual-hatted role combining direct asset management and portfolio-level strategy across its 5,000 unit multifamily platform of market-rate and affordable housing. This is a unique opportunity to toggle between execution and strategy in a high-impact, highly visible role.

What you’ll do

• For assigned assets, own performance (budgeting, leasing strategy, cash flow, operations)

• Support Director of Asset Management with portfolio-wide analytics

• Build and maintain financial models, dashboards and complete strategic initiatives

• Partner across acquisitions, development, finance, and accounting

• Interface with property managers, lenders, investors, and external partners

• Present memos and analyses to leadership, investors, and partners

• Oversee compliance (including affordable housing / LIHTC where applicable)

• Leverage AI technology to improve reporting, work flows, and asset monitoring.

What we’re looking for

• 4–7 years of experience in asset management, acquisitions, brokerage, or valuation
• Experience with multifamily (market-rate, affordable, or mixed-use) assets
• Strong understanding of real estate finance metrics (IRR, DSCR, cap rates, etc.)
• Advanced Excel / financial modeling skills
• Experience with value-add, lease-up, or development projects preferred
• Familiarity with legal documents (JV agreements, loans, leases, etc.)

You also are:

• Highly analytical with strong problem-solving instincts
• Comfortable owning decisions and working autonomously
• An effective communicator who can translate complex data into clear insights
• Organized and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment

Compensation & perks

• $100k–$120k base bonus

• 100% company paid healthcare (employee)

• 401(k) match life insurance

• Cell phone reimbursement

• Company paid parking/transit

• Covered industry dues & subscriptions

Why This Role Stands Out

• True ownership: Direct responsibility over asset performance—not just reporting
• Full lifecycle exposure: Acquisitions, development, operations, and dispositions
• Lean, entrepreneurial team: Your voice matters and your impact is visible
• Growth-oriented platform: Opportunity to expand responsibility as the portfolio grows
• Collaborative culture: Work closely with experienced, high-performing colleagues
