Assistant Controller

A growing property management company is looking for an Assistant Controller to play a key role in keeping its financial operations running smoothly across a portfolio of properties. This is a hands‑on position that blends technical accounting work with cross‑functional collaboration — you'll be as comfortable digging into a balance sheet reconciliation as you are walking a property manager through a variance explanation.

Day-to-day, you'll be responsible for bank and balance sheet reconciliations, journal entries, and supporting the full monthly, quarterly, and year-end close cycle. You'll generate and analyze budget-to-actual reports, review general ledger activity for accuracy, and help prepare owner reporting packages. Beyond the numbers, you'll serve as a key point of contact for onsite property management teams — translating financial results into clear, actionable information.

You'll also contribute to annual budgeting and forecasting, support audit requests, and look for ways to sharpen processes and improve reporting efficiency over time.

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• 5+ years of accounting experience, ideally in property management or real estate
• Solid grasp of GAAP and financial reporting fundamentals
• Hands‑on experience with reconciliations, journal entries, and close process
• Comfort analyzing financial statements and explaining budget variances
• Proficiency in Excel and accounting software; experience with Yardi, App Folio, Real Page, or MRI is a plus
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to juggle multiple deadlines without losing the thread
