Accounting Manager; US Real Estate & Corporate Accounting REMOTE

Puesto: Accounting Manager (US Real Estate & Corporate Accounting) REMOTE
Accounting Manager (US Real Estate & Corporate Accounting)  Remote (Mexico)
Salary Range: USD $3000 - $3500 per month
About the Company
Our client is a US-based commercial real estate firm with operations across property management, real estate development, and brokerage. Founded in 2017, the company is technology-forward and operates from an owner's perspective, focusing on scalable processes, strong controls, and long-term value creation.
As the business continues to grow, they are building an accounting center of excellence in Mexico and are looking for a senior accounting professional who can own the accounting function, manage junior resources, and help standardize and scale operations.
About the Role
This is a senior, hands-on Accounting Manager role supporting both corporate accounting and US property management accounting.
You will act as the bridge between day-to-day bookkeeping and strategic financial oversight, managing junior bookkeepers while maintaining responsibility for quality, reporting, controls, and process improvement.
This role is not pure bookkeeping and not a Director-level executive role — it is ideal for someone who enjoys owning the accounting function, mentoring others, and building structure in a growing organization.

Key Responsibilities
Accounting Oversight & Reporting
Oversee day-to-day accounting activities across multiple entities (corporate and property-level)
Review and validate rent rolls, reimbursements, utility billbacks, and receivables
Support month-end and period-end close processes
Prepare and review financial statements, variance analyses, and budget vs. actual reports
Assist with property-level and corporate financial reporting for internal leadership and external stakeholders
Property & Corporate Accounting
Work with US real estate portfolios, primarily using App Folio and Quick Books Online
Review tenant leases and management agreements to ensure accounting compliance
Reconcile operating expenses, real estate taxes, and tenant pro-rata allocations
Track intercompany transactions, deposits, distributions, and cash flows
Support audit requests and tax preparation in coordination with third-party advisors
Team Leadership & Process Building
Manage and review the work of junior bookkeepers and accounting staff
Develop, document, and continuously improve Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
Implement internal controls and accounting best practices
Train team members and support long-term scalability of the accounting function
Collaborate closely with leadership to improve systems, workflows, and reporting quality
Tools & Systems
Daily use of Quick Books Online
Regular interaction with App Folio (experience preferred but not required)
Leverage technology and AI tools (e.g., Grammarly, automation tools) to enhance accuracy and efficiency
What We're Looking For
5+ years of progressive accounting experience, ideally with exposure to:
US companies
Real estate, property management, or multi-entity environments
Strong understanding of corporate accounting fundamentals
Experience reviewing or managing bookkeeping work
Comfortable working with US GAAP concepts (CPA a plus, not required)
High attention to detail with strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Proven ability to build structure, improve processes, and mentor others
Language & Communication
Advanced spoken English (accent is not an issue)
Ability to clearly explain financial information in meetings and calls
Written English does not need to be perfect — tools like Grammarly are used internally
Why This Role Is Attractive
Senior-level ownership without executive-level pressure
Exposure to US real estate and corporate accounting
Opportunity to build and lead a growing accounting team
Long-term growth as the company scales operations
Stable, full-time role with a US company while working from Mexico
