- Database Management (CRM) : Own the organization and integrity of the contact database. Systematically catalogue contacts, update records, and tag relationships. Manage the weekly pipeline and lead follow-up process, including scheduling next steps and assisting with necessary research.
- Property & Contact Research (Ad-Hoc) : Conduct targeted research on properties, contact availability, floorplans, and other ad-hoc requests as needed for executive projects (e.g., Airbnb ventures).
