JA Recruitment is a specialist real estate and property recruitment agency. For employers in Forest Hill, that means property management recruitment handled by people who understand portfolios, not a generalist filling a seat.
Eastern-suburbs offices often manage family-home rentals with long-term landlords, so continuity matters more than churn. Agencies here tend to prioritise candidates likely to stay in a portfolio for years, not months.
We'll also tell you plainly when a salary range or portfolio size will make a role hard to fill - before you lose weeks finding out.
Hiring Property Management Staff in Forest Hill

We recruit permanent staff, so candidates are assessed for whether they will still be in the role in two years - not just whether they can start on Monday.

How a Forest Hill Search Runs
We start with a short briefing call to understand the portfolio and the team the role sits in. From there we build a target list of candidates - people already doing comparable work in Forest Hill and nearby - and approach them directly and confidentially.
Suitable candidates are interviewed by us before you see them, and you receive a written shortlist rather than forwarded résumés. We then coordinate your interviews, collect feedback both ways, complete reference checks and support the offer.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can you advise on salary for a Forest Hill property management role?
- We can share what we are currently seeing on comparable Melbourne briefs and in candidate conversations. We do not publish fixed figures, because portfolio size, structure and support change them significantly.
- Are you a sales-agent recruitment agency?
- 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 Forest Hill vacancy?
- It depends on the role and salary range, but because we are already speaking with property management staff across Melbourne, most briefs move to a shortlist far faster than an advertising campaign.
- Which roles do you recruit for Forest Hill agencies?
- Property Managers, Senior Property Managers, Assistant Property Managers, property management BDMs, Leasing Consultants and Leasing Managers, team leaders and Heads of Property Management, trust accounting and real estate administration staff.
- How do I hire a Property Manager in Forest Hill?
- Start with a short conversation or submit a vacancy through this page. We take the detail that matters - portfolio size, structure, software and salary range - then approach suitable candidates directly, screen and interview them, and send a written shortlist.
- Do you approach candidates who aren't applying for jobs?
- Yes, that is the core of the service. Most capable property management staff around Forest Hill are employed and not actively looking, so we approach them directly and confidentially rather than waiting for applications.
- Do you use SEEK Talent Search as well as your own network?
- We do. Sourcing usually combines direct approaches, SEEK Talent Search, referrals and the candidates already registered with us. Advertising is one channel, not the whole search.
