Deborah Chijioke
Position: Condominium Administrator
Joined NCM: 2024
What is your position at New Concept Management Inc., and what does it mean to be part of the team?
As a condominium administrator supporting Maria, I handle the administrative needs of the properties in our portfolio. I manage inquiries from board members, residents, owners, and contractors. I am well-supported by the team at New Concept Management Inc. Philicia played a crucial role in my transition, which set the standard in my role.
What began your journey at New Concept Management Inc.?
I joined NCM in December 2024 after a recruiter discovered my resume, highlighting my extensive experience as a lawyer in the property industry. I was deeply involved in property transactions and believed I could easily transition into most of the work at NCM. Given my broad experience, I felt I could make a substantial contribution in this role. The interview went well; I ended up sharing a lot about my background as a lawyer and my journey from Nigeria to Canada. Some interviews can be quite intense with relentless questioning, but Maria allowed me to express myself freely and then selected a few follow-up questions based on our conversation.
What do you love most about the job?
What I appreciate most about my job is the constant activity from when I arrive until I leave. I enjoy that there’s never a time when I’m unsure of what to do. It’s a bit of a “high” for me!
Do you have a most memorable moment?
My time here hasn’t been long, but one standout memory is Philicia’s surprise baby shower at the office. I truly appreciated how everyone went out of their way to make it a special occasion for her. I didn’t expect such an event to happen in an office environment, but it was a memorable experience. I felt honoured to be part of this event.
