JOIN OUR MISSION TO END HOMELESSNESS

Plymouth Housing is a nonprofit organization that develops and operates permanent supportive housing for single adults who have experienced chronic homelessness. With apartment buildings throughout King County, we believe everyone deserves a safe home and the opportunity to thrive. That’s why we provide long-term housing paired with on‑site services that promote stability, health, and community. Our culture is rooted in dignity, respect, and shared responsibility:
We practice hospitality, communicate with care, and collaborate across differences. We value lived experience, cultural responsiveness, and approaches grounded in harm reduction, trauma‑informed practice, and resident choice. We look for people who are committed to safety, learning, and continuous improvement — and who bring steady, values‑aligned service in moments that are complex or high‑stress.

ABOUT THIS ROLE

At Plymouth Housing, every building we own is someone’s home. We’re looking for a Senior Controller to lead accounting and financial reporting for our real estate and related‑party entities: residential and commercial buildings, condo associations, construction and renovation, LIHTC projects, and property grants.

Reporting to the Chief Financial Officer, you’ll work as a peer to the Senior Controller of Nonprofit, and together you’ll lead the combined and consolidated financial statements. You’ll directly supervise the Senior Real Estate Accountants. You’ll also be the finance team’s go‑to expert on real estate, multi‑entity, consolidation, and complex GAAP matters, which means teaching, coaching, and documenting so your knowledge strengthens the whole department.

This role is a great fit for a seasoned, hands‑on controller who enjoys solving hard technical problems and helping others learn to solve them.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Direct operational accounting for Plymouth’s real estate and related‑party entities, including building operations and condo associations, and supervise the monthly close, balance sheet reconciliations, and intercompany transactions.
• Oversee accounting for buildings under development and renovation, including cost tracking, capitalization, and LIHTC cost certifications.
• Partner with Real Estate Development, Asset Management, Property Operations, investors, and lenders on complex multi‑entity transactions.
• Lead preparation of the combined and consolidated financial statements, including eliminations, in partnership with the Senior Controller of Nonprofit.
• Direct the annual external audit for real estate entities, along with governmental audits, funder reviews, and investor compliance reporting.
• Prepare financial reports and projections for management, the Board of Directors, funders, and investors.
• Lead annual operating and capital budgets for real estate entities and partner with Real Estate Development on 20‑year proforma budgets for new housing developments.
• Provide analysis and recommendations…
