**Role Overview**:
Latino Legends is actively searching for an **Inventory & Merchandising Specialist** on behalf of one of our U.S.based clients, a growing real estate investment and operations firm focused on manufactured housing communities. The client owns and operates a large portfolio of physical housing assets and is building scalable systems to support growth, automation, and operational excellence.

This is a **foundational, hybrid role** that owns the full lifecycle of manufactured home inventory—from intake through disposition—combining inventory merchandising, marketing execution, and tactical sales support under one accountable owner.

The primary objective of this role is to build and maintain a **clean, well-documented, and automation-ready inventory system** that supports accurate reporting, consistent presentation, and cross-team alignment.

This position operates as a **peer to the Systems Manager**, focusing on human-facing execution, accuracy, and outcomes, while system architecture and integrations are handled separately.

**Primary Responsibilities**:
**Inventory Merchandising & Asset Management (Core Function)**:

- Build and maintain complete inventory records for all homes, including photos, descriptions, unit details, and readiness status
- Own inventory lifecycle documentation from new home delivery through rehab, sale/RTO, removal, or demolition
- Maintain accurate asset history supporting accounting, operations, infill, and sales teams
- Ensure inventory is consistently packaged and ready for automation across listing platforms

**Marketing Creative & Website**:

- Create and maintain marketing collateral such as flyers, banners, signage, and basic campaign assets
- Update website listings, photos, descriptions, and unit information for accuracy
- Ensure consistent visual presentation and messaging across all channels
- Execute creative work independently without routing through leadership

**Listings, Marketplaces & Reputation**:

- Manage and maintain listings across Zillow (once automated), Facebook Marketplace, and Craigslist
- Ensure listings are compliant, accurate, and optimized for speed of turn
- Monitor and manage Google Reviews with professionalism and consistency

**Sales Support (Tactical)**:

- Order banners, flyers, lockboxes, and other sales materials
- Send screenings and assist with administrative sales workflows
- Provide execution support that removes friction for the sales team (no lead ownership)

**Systems Collaboration (Clear Separation of Ownership)**:

- Collaborate with the Systems Manager to ensure inventory data is structured correctly for automation and reporting
- This role does **not** own system architecture, integrations, or platform configuration
- Focus remains on execution, data accuracy, and operational outcomes using established systems

**Reporting & Team Structure**:

- Reports directly to the **Director of Sales**
- Operates as an equal peer alongside the Systems Manager
- No hierarchical ranking between roles—clear ownership and shared accountability

**Qualifications**:

- Strong analytical skills with experience managing inventory, assets, or operational data
- Understanding of inventory turn, pricing strategy, and reporting
- Creative execution skills, including basic design, print collateral, and digital content
- Experience managing listings, marketplaces, or consumer-facing platforms
- Comfortable operating autonomously in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment
- Experience in manufactured housing, real estate, or asset-heavy industries is a plus, but not required

**What Success Looks Like**:

- Inventory is clean, complete, and fully documented
- Listings are accurate, automated, and consistent across platforms
- Asset history is reliable and usable across departments
- Leadership is no longer the execution bottleneck
- Sales, accounting, and operations rely on a single, trusted inventory process
