About the Opportunity


A growing, family-owned real estate organization is seeking a Project Accountant to support accounting across multiple development projects. This is a hands-on role within a small, tight-knit team, offering strong visibility and the opportunity to make a direct impact.


With a lean accounting team, this position is ideal for someone who enjoys working independently, managing multiple priorities, and being closely involved in project-level financials.

  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow management

  • Partner with internal stakeholders to ensure accurate financial reporting




Required Qualifications



  • 3+ years of accounting experience

  • Experience with job costing

  • Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously

  • Strong understanding of general accounting and financial reporting




Preferred Qualifications



  • Experience with LIHTC (Low-Income Housing Tax Credit) projects

  • Familiarity with QuickBooks Online

  • Background in real estate, development, or property accounting




Ideal Candidate Profile



  • Self-starter who thrives in a small team environment

  • Easy-going, adaptable, and comfortable in a fast-paced setting

  • Strong attention to detail and organization

  • Motivated and proactive with a “go-getter” mindset




Why This Opportunity Stands Out



  • Family-oriented culture with strong employee tenure

  • High-impact role with visibility across projects

  • Opportunity to grow alongside the company

  • Hands-on exposure to real estate development accounting

  • Supportive, collaborative environment
