Property | Estate Manager

Overview Property | Estate Manager — Aspen/Snowmass, Colorado Local Aspen candidates are preferred. Open to candidates nationwide, but particularly those with experience working in similar mountain climates. Our client, an established family office based in Tampa, FL, is seeking an experienced, hands-on Property | Estate Manager to oversee a sophisticated private residential estate in the Aspen/Snowmass area. This is a special property: a large estate on beautiful acreage with real construction and systems complexity, and it calls for someone who can move fluidly between hands-on, boots-on-the-ground support when the family is in residence and confident, autonomous operation the rest of the year. About the Role This is not a traditional household management or hospitality-only position. It's a blend: part estate operator, part owner's representative, and part hospitality-minded caretaker. The right person takes a strong sense of ownership and accountability for the property, anticipating needs, maintaining high standards, and keeping projects, vendors, and systems running smoothly whether the family is present or away. The client is in residence roughly 4-5 months per year, with additional shorter visits throughout the rest of the year. During those periods, this role shifts into a more visible, service-minded posture, supporting the client directly while staying attentive to the details that make their time at the property seamless. When the client is away, the role becomes independent and proactive: running the estate, managing projects, and staying ahead of maintenance and capital needs.
