Senior Property Accountant

Ready to own a property portfolio and build the experience to lead an accounting team? We’re looking for a Senior Property Accountant who enjoys getting into the details, explaining what’s driving property performance, and finding better ways to run the close.

You’ll take ownership of the financials for an assigned portfolio and work directly with property managers, asset managers, and accounting leadership. As you grow in the role, you’ll have opportunities to take on more complex properties, mentor junior accountants, and lead projects that can prepare you for an Accounting Manager role.

What you’ll do

  • Own the month-end close for your portfolio, including journal entries, accruals, bank reconciliations, and balance sheet reconciliations.
  • Prepare and review monthly financial statements, explain budget variances, and flag trends that matter to property and asset managers.
  • Review lease terms and, where applicable, prepare common area maintenance (CAM), real estate tax, and insurance reconciliations.
  • Track capital expenditures and fixed assets, and support annual budgets, forecasts, and audits.
  • Improve close procedures and reporting tools, document processes, and help junior team members build their skills.

What you’ll bring

  • 4+ years of accounting experience, including hands-on property accounting and month-end close.
  • Experience preparing property-level financial statements and explaining variances to operating teams.
  • A bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • Strong Excel skills and experience with Yardi, MRI, or a comparable property accounting system.
  • The judgment to investigate discrepancies, communicate findings clearly, and follow issues through to resolution.
  • Commercial lease and CAM reconciliation experience is a plus.
