Job Description & How to Apply Below
We are seeking a Financial Accountant to join the growing accounting team supporting a multi-property real estate portfolio. This role is responsible for preparing accurate monthly financial statements, reviewing journal entries, and ensuring the integrity of financial reporting across assigned properties.
The ideal candidate is analytical, proactive, and highly communicative. While this role is expected to develop toward independent ownership of financials, it includes structured onboarding, hands‑on training, and multi‑level review support.
This is not a silent task executor role — we are looking for a team‑oriented professional who integrates into our culture, communicates regularly, and takes ownership of their work.
What you’ll own- Prepare monthly financial statements for assigned properties
- Review general ledger activity and post journal entries (accruals, reclasses, corrections)
- Perform account reconciliations and balance sheet tie‑outs
- Analyze revenue and expense activity and investigate discrepancies
- Collaborate with regional managers on preliminary financials
- Participate in multi‑level financial review process prior to final approval
- Ensure compliance with internal reporting standards and deadlines
- Navigate and utilize Yardi (training provided if needed)
- Maintain documentation and support audit readiness
- Reports directly to Accounting Leadership
- Works closely with Senior Accountants
- Financials are reviewed by 2–3 levels (Senior Accountant + Leadership + Regional Manager) before approval
- Expected to progress toward independent completion of financials with structured oversight
- Strong communicator (email, Teams, video calls)
- Comfortable asking thoughtful questions
- Detail‑obsessed — especially when working with financial data
- Analytical and naturally investigative
- Team‑oriented and relationship‑driven
- Self‑motivated but not silent — proactive with updates
- Comfortable in a structured review environment
- Output‑driven but communicative
- Willing to participate in regular check‑ins
- Open to feedback and collaborative review
- Able to identify errors independently and escalate appropriately
- Bachelors degree in Accounting or Finance
- 1–3+ years of accounting experience (property accounting preferred)
- CPA or CPA‑track candidates welcome (not required)
- ERP experience required (Yardi preferred, not mandatory)
- Strong Excel proficiency
- Understanding of GAAP
- Open to both:
- Experienced plug‑and‑play accountants, and
- High‑potential early‑career professionals who are highly trainable and culturally aligned
