Commercial Portfolio Manager - East Bay, CA
At Windsor Management, we're constantly expanding and seeking talented individuals to join our growing team. This position is open year-round to support our continued growth.
This position will manage a portfolio of commercial properties in the East Bay, CA.
An Ideal Candidate
- You're the one people go to when nobody else can solve a problem.

About Windsor
At our core, we are our people. Our mission is to be the premier company for a commercial property management career. We want talented teammates with whom we can work and win together. We do constant training, both structured and informal, to always make ourselves better. We strike the balance on speed and accuracy, owning our work through responsibility and delegation versus collaboratively relying on each other as a high trust team, and solidifying procedures and establishing new ones. We know employees may leave our company over time, but we want to create an environment so amazing that it never crosses your mind. But if you do leave, we want you to know the value of the skills and development gained at Windsor so you can continue to thrive. With the best people both doing our own work and chipping in to make Windsor and each other better, Windsor can continue to thrive and grow which creates more opportunities for everyone to develop.
Our Service
In an ideal world, tenants would pay their rent on time, buildings would never have any issues, and the building owners could ride off into the sunset. The world isn't ideal. Rents are late. Things break. Help is needed. That is where we step in. Windsor provides a white glove service so owners can still ride off into the sunset.
Windsor Growth
Our reputation drives our growth. Our growth has been 100% word of mouth referrals from happy clients and vendors. It is a testament to our collective, quality output and a testament to the staff we hire. Windsor was recognized in the Top 100 Fastest Growing Companies in the Bay Area in 2025, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
What Success Looks Like for You
It is valuable for new Portfolio Managers (PMs) to get up to speed steadily and we want you to take the time to invest in skills and development as you learn our processes. You will start with roughly a third of a normal portfolio and grow into a full portfolio over six months.
We do not manage to KPIs. Instead, we lead through communication and trust. How the workload is; how the buildings are doing; your ability to handle more complex and challenging buildings.
Collectively the team knows which PMs they can go to with questions. They know who always delivers for their owners. They know who can solve the hardest, trickiest problems. That is how we define success.
Tangible Background Skills Needed for the Portfolio Manager Position
- Thorough understanding of lease terms, lessor and lessee responsibilities, and CAM estimates and reconciliation calculations
- Knowledge of buildings, structures, and systems
- Construction management and project management
- Accrual accounting
- Ability to balance "owning" your portfolio yourself with collaborative teamwork
