Senior Project Accountant

Title:
Senior Project Accountant

Salary: $115,000 – $120,000 + Performance Bonus

Location: McLean, VA

If you are a technically strong real estate development accountant who wants stability, influence, and long-term runway, this is the one. We’re partnering with a well-established, privately held real estate development firm with decades of success in residential land development and community building.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• High-level technical accounting role, become the go-to expert in development accounting
• Direct visibility to ownership and executive leadership
• Long-tenured team, extremely low turnover
• Financially strong organization with consistent revenue and backlog
• Systems modernization underway
• Free, high-quality health insurance, fully paid for individual AND family coverage
• Generous PTO to start and summer schedule perk - every other Friday off
• 401(k) with match
• Professional, stable, drama-free environment

Key Responsibilities:

The Senior Project Accountant will own full-cycle project accounting for multiple real estate development projects, including:

• Job cost accounting and capitalization
• Preparing and reviewing detailed work papers
• Construction loan draw preparation and reconciliation
• Lot settlement accounting (HUDs, purchase agreements, sales journals)
• Contract review and revenue treatment analysis
• General ledger entries and account reconciliations
• Month-end and year-end close support
• Supporting tax work papers and GAAP/tax basis financial reporting
• Cash management and banking activity

This Senior Project Accountant must be comfortable operating independently and serving as the technical resource within development accounting.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance (Finance must have strong debits/credits experience)
• 6+ years of real estate development, construction, or project accounting experience
• Strong understanding of development cost accounting and capitalization
• Experience preparing detailed work papers
• Experience with lot settlements and contract interpretation
• Strong Excel skills
• Experience working within accounting systems

If you’re a Senior Project Accountant who wants long-term stability, real technical ownership, and upward runway, apply now.
