Controller
Our client is a growing property management company looking for a Corporate Controller to own the integrity of our financial operations. This is a senior role with real authority and real accountability — you'll lead the Accounting team, own the month-end close, and serve as the financial backbone of a company that moves fast and expects precision.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN:
? The close. Month-end, year-end, accruals, reconciliations — done accurately and on schedule, every time.
? The team. You'll lead and develop the Accounting team, set the standard, and build capacity that scales with the company.
? Internal controls. Design them, document them, test them, and fix them when they fail. You are the last line of defense on financial integrity.
? The balance sheet. AR, AP, cash, fixed assets — reconciled, current, and explainable at any moment.
? GAAP compliance and audit readiness. You know the rules and you follow them. Audit findings are resolved, not buried.
? Data you can trust. Financial and operational data that is accurate, consistently defined, and ready to drive decisions — not just reports.
? Investor reporting support. Property-level financials that are clean, reconciled, and distribution-ready before every reporting cycle.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
? You are a technical expert in accounting. GAAP is not a reference document — it's second nature.
? You build systems, not workarounds. When a process breaks, your instinct is to fix the root cause, document the fix, and train the team.
? You are precise under pressure. The close doesn't slip because you're busy. It's too important.
? You lead by standard. Your team knows what right looks like because you show them every day.
? You are calm, methodical, and thorough. You don't chase trends. You execute fundamentals at a high level, consistently.
? You own your outcomes. When something is wrong, you say so and you fix it. No deflection, no excuses.
