Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced Assistant Controller-level professional to oversee core property accounting functions with a focus on cash management, accounts receivable, and revenue reporting.

• Lead month-end close activities related to revenue, AR, and cash, including reconciliations, variance analysis, and occupancy reporting
• Partner with senior accounting leadership to prepare and analyze consolidated cash flow reporting and financial summaries across entities
• Drive improvements in AR processes, collections strategies, and reporting frameworks to enhance visibility and reduce delinquencies
• Collaborate cross-functionally with leasing, legal, and operations teams to resolve billing issues, support tenant communications, and align on revenue tracking
• Serve as a key point of contact for AR and cash-related inquiries, providing insights and recommendations to leadership

Qualifications

• 5–8+ years of progressive accounting experience, with strong exposure to real estate/property accounting
• Deep understanding of accounts receivable, cash management, and revenue recognition in a multi-entity environment
• Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, data analysis) and experience working with large datasets
• Experience with MRI, Yardi or similar property management/accounting systems strongly preferred
• Proven ability to interface with leadership and cross-functional stakeholders in a fast-paced environment
• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to identify issues, recommend solutions, and improve processes
