Real Estate Controller

Strategic Leadership Opportunity | High Visibility | Growth-Focused Organization
Location: On-site (Metropolitan Area)
Schedule: Monday–Friday

Why This Role Stands Out

This is more than a traditional Controller position—it’s a high-impact leadership role where you’ll shape financial strategy, influence executive decision-making, and help drive the continued expansion of a national real estate and senior living platform.

You’ll partner directly with executive leadership, gaining unmatched visibility and influence, while leading modernization efforts across systems and processes. The organization fosters a culture built on trust, autonomy, and accountability, giving you the space to lead effectively without micromanagement.

What you’ll gain:

  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and strategic initiatives

  • A seat at the table influencing operational and financial performance

  • Clear growth trajectory as the platform continues to scale

  • A performance-based bonus that increases with impact and tenure

  • A culture that genuinely supports work-life balance, including Summer Fridays

  • Robust benefits package and generous PTO

  • Oversee all core accounting operations (GL, AP/AR, payroll, property-level accounting)

  • Own the financial close process and deliver timely, accurate GAAP reporting

  • Strengthen internal controls, policies, and audit readiness

  • Lead budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis to guide business decisions

  • Manage cash flow, capital expenditures, and banking relationships

  • Drive systems improvements and automation initiatives to modernize finance operations

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

  • 7+ years of accounting experience, including 3+ years in a leadership role

  • Experience with property-level or multi-site accounting environments

  • Background in senior living, healthcare, multifamily, or real estate preferred

  • Strong command of GAAP and internal controls

  • Advanced Excel skills and experience with systems such as NetSuite, Yardi, Ramp, or Sage Intacct

  • A leadership style that is hands-on, strategic, and collaborative

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive base salary ($120K–$170K)

  • Performance-based bonus with consistent upward growth potential

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage

  • Retirement plan with employer match

  • Summer Fridays + generous PTO + holidays
