JOB OVERVIEW

About Us
Coastal Group Inc. is a Virginia Beach–based property management company with 40+ years of
experience managing residential and commercial properties. We’re adding a Collections
Specialist to reduce delinquency timelines while maintaining the professional, relationship-
driven tone our owners and tenants expect.

The Role

You’ll be the voice of Coastal Group when a tenant has fallen behind on rent. Your job is to
make contact, build rapport, show empathy, and guide the conversation toward a payment
commitment. You’ll work from scripts, but your emotional intelligence is what determines
success.

• Place outbound calls and follow-ups to tenants with delinquent balances
• Navigate difficult conversations with empathy, professionalism, and persistence
• Document all interactions and outcomes in our property management system
• Coordinate with the management team on escalations and payment plans
• Track your collection metrics and contribute to weekly reporting

What We’re Looking For
Industry doesn’t matter. How you communicate does.

Must-haves:
• Exceptional spoken English with a clear, neutral accent — tenants must feel like they’re
speaking with a U.S.-based professional
• High emotional intelligence — you can read tone, de-escalate frustration, and hold firm
without being aggressive
• Experience in collections, accounts receivable, customer retention, or any persuasion-
based role
• Reliable internet and a quiet workspace for calls
• Available during U.S. Eastern Time business hours

Nice-to-haves:
• Property management or real estate experience
• Familiarity with Buildium, Yardi, or similar PMS
• Track record of meeting collection targets

How to Apply — All 3 Steps Required
1. Submit your application with your updated resume/CV on OnlineJobs.ph.
2. Record a Loom video (3–5 minutes). This is required — applications without a Loom will
not be reviewed. Include the link in your application.

Your Loom must cover:
• Introduce yourself — name, location, brief professional background
• Collections story — walk through a specific time you successfully collected on a
delinquent account or persuaded someone to take a financial action they were resisting
• Live scenario — a tenant says “I already told the office I’d pay next week — stop calling
me.” Talk through how you’d respond
• Why this role — what makes you a strong fit for collections at a U.S. property
management company
• Availability & setup — confirm your hours (ET), internet speed, and workspace

What we’re evaluating:
English fluency & accent clarity • Communication confidence • Emotional intelligence • Ability to think
on your feet • Overall presence — would a tenant trust and respond to you?
3. Answer these screening questions in your application message:
1. Years of experience in collections or a similar persuasion-based role?
2. Spoken English proficiency (1–10)? We’ll verify in the Loom.
3. Available hours in U.S. Eastern Time?
4. Internet speed (download/upload)?
5. Property management software experience? Which ones?
6. Expected hourly rate (USD)?

Applications without a Loom video will not be considered.

We review on a rolling basis and will reach out to qualified candidates for a live interview.
