Need to Hire Real Estate or Property Management Staff in Mareeba?
Submit your vacancy - portfolio size, team structure and salary range - and we'll come back with screened, shortlisted property management candidates.
JA Recruitment works with real estate agencies, property groups and asset owners hiring property management and support staff in Mareeba and the wider Cairns Surrounds & Far North area.
Offices in the districts around Cairns run smaller teams over long distances, and local candidate pools are genuinely limited. Relocation conversations and direct approaches usually matter more here than advertising.
Because we recruit only in real estate and property, we can be specific with you about what your role will attract: the level of experience realistically available, where a shortlist is likely to come from, and what will need to change if the brief is difficult to fill.
Recruiting Real Estate Staff in Mareeba?
Advertising reaches the people who happen to be looking this week. Around Mareeba that is a small slice of the available property management talent, and rarely the strongest slice.
Our sourcing runs wider: direct approaches to experienced property staff, SEEK Talent Search, and the candidates already registered with us who told us what would make them move. Everything is confidential on both sides.
- Confidential searches for senior or sensitive replacements
- Targeted candidate sourcing, not just job board advertising
- Direct approach to passive candidates already in the industry
- SEEK Talent Search and our existing candidate network
- Screening and structured interviewing before you see anyone
- A written shortlist with portfolio, software and salary detail
- Interview coordination and feedback handled for you
- Reference checking and offer support

What Happens After You Submit a Vacancy
A Mareeba search begins with the detail: portfolio size, task split, software, reporting lines, salary range and timeframe. We then approach candidates directly rather than waiting to see who applies.
Screening covers practical capability - portfolio volume handled, arrears and inspection routines, trust accounting exposure and how someone communicates with landlords under pressure. You interview a short list of genuine options and we handle the coordination around it.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is included in a shortlist?
- Written notes on each candidate: portfolio size handled, software experience, arrears and inspection routines, trust accounting exposure, salary expectation, notice period and why they are considering a move.
- Do you cover suburbs near Mareeba?
- Yes - our search area includes Speewah, Koah, Atherton and Babinda and the wider Cairns Surrounds & Far North area, which gives your role a realistic candidate pool rather than a single-suburb one.
- Can you advise on salary for a Mareeba property management role?

- No. Our specialisation is property management, leasing, business development and real estate support staff. That focus is why our shortlists in this area are short and relevant.
- How quickly can you shortlist a Mareeba vacancy?
- It depends on the role and salary range, but because we are already speaking with property management staff across Cairns, most briefs move to a shortlist far faster than an advertising campaign.
