Accounting Manager - Real Estate Development

CFS, McLean, VA, United States

Salary max: $72.00

Duration: Full Time


Accounting Manager – Real Estate Development



  • Salary: $150,000 – $170,000 Base + Annual Performance Bonus

  • Location: McLean, VA


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • If you’re an experienced real estate development accounting professional with a CPA background and want high-level technical ownership without public accounting hours, this is a rare find.

  • You’ll join a privately held residential development firm with long-term financial stability, steady project flow, and leadership that truly respects accounting.


What Makes This Role Different:



  • Employer-paid medical insurance (individual + family)

  • Highly competitive compensation package

  • Generous PTO from day one

  • Strong retirement plan with employer contribution

  • Consistent annual compensation reviews

  • Summer perk - every other Friday off

  • Professional, low-ego culture

  • Long-tenured, stable accounting team

  • Clear succession path into senior technical leadership

  • Financially disciplined, steady-growth organization

  • This is a stable, disciplined organization, not a churn-and-burn environment.


Key Responsibilities:



  • Lead real estate development accounting across multiple entities

  • Review capital gains, installment sales, and real estate tax

  • Manage preferred return waterfalls and promote structures

  • Oversee lender compliance and bank draws

  • Handle monthly close and consolidations

  • Train and review staff


Qualifications:



  • CPA (active preferred; inactive acceptable if reactivatable)

  • 10+ years accounting experience

  • Real estate development accounting (not property management)

  • Real estate tax in development

  • Preferred return waterfalls

  • Bank draw / lender compliance experience

  • Strong GAAP and multi-entity accounting


If you meet the qualifications and are open to exploring something stable, respected, and technically rewarding - apply confidentially or message me directly.
