Senior Property Accountant

Montgomery County, MD • Posted 3 days ago
Onsite Full Time Staffing and Recruiting

The Company

Our client is a well-established commercial real estate owner/operator with a portfolio of retail and office properties. The organization handles leasing, property management, finance, and accounting internally.


The Role

This functions like a mini-controller seat. You'll own full-cycle accounting for a set of properties, including close, reconciliations, and lease interpretation. This isn't a data-entry role — you'll be reading lease agreements and translating them into accounting treatment.


What You'll Own

  • Complete monthly close, prepare operating statements, and book accruals
  • Prepare account reconciliations and supporting schedules
  • Abstract lease documents into the accounting ledger
  • Prepare expense recovery billings
  • Interpret complex lease structures, including percentage rent, CAM true-ups, straight-line rent, and additional rent provisions
  • Support financial reporting through schedule prep and reconciliation work
  • Partner with property management on tenant account issues


Profile

  • 2 to 5 years of commercial real estate accounting experience (retail or office; residential does not qualify)
  • CPA or actively pursuing preferred
  • Property accounting software experience preferred
  • Comfortable with lease abstraction, not just routine entry
  • Public accounting/audit experience alone, without industry experience, will not be considered
  • Strong Excel and organizational skills
