I have concerns about what a full-time administrator should be earning in a community that contains;
700 homes;3 maintenance personnel; 3 office personnel;3 community buildings;swimming pool;tennis courts; most major services are either under contract or hired out. We are located in Suffolk County, Long Island, New York. Thanks for any input and information. Ralph |

What's the job description? Is this person acting as a kind of CEO - handling day to day operations of the entire HOA - or is this a social appointment?

| Our HOA hired a "general manager" as a direct employee. We have 800 single family homes, a large clubhouse, two swimming pools, and 41 acres of common area. He supervises a staff of 6. He is paid approx. $90K per year. He has many years of experience. |

Susan,
Thanks for the reply. The position handles the day-to-day operations(blue collar) and has vertually no financial responsibilities. We also have an "office manager" who reports to him. The position in my estimation is not a high energy, high stress situation. |

Ralph,
Our general manager position is definitely a demanding, high stress job. We are a 55 and over community with many retired folks who are pretty demanding in terms of the services they expect for their dues. In addition, our board members have high expectations for our community being a "first class" operation. Our general manager works long hours and deals with a broad range of problems, many of them inherited from the time when the HOA was under developer control and was grossly mismanaged.
Personally, I think he earns every penny we pay him.

What do you think the position is worth?
Thanks

David,
Thanks for your replies. Our community is nice. It is one of three all within a stone's throw of each other and we are probably ranked second in reputation and desireability, however we do have the lowest monthly "dues" and try to get the most out of our budget. We also are located in a blue collar area(not the best and not the worst). Thanks again for your input! |

John,
I'm not sure what the position is worth. The board members with more time served think that our administrator is not replaceable and not overpaid. The junior board members believe that he is overpaid and his performance is sub par. He has certainly formed close ties with senior members. This is why I posted the question/I'm not sure what the salary range should be, however I'm thinking that our position should not pay more than the going rate for "our" community's requirements and our regional marketplace. Thanks for your input! |
