Job Description

Title: VP of Finance/Controller

Location: Aventura, FL

RTO: 4x in office

Company: Privately held real estate investment specializing in acquiring and managing commercial assets throughout Florida.

Role Summary:

This is a hands-on, roll-up-your-sleeves role from day one. You’ll be responsible for building and leading all accounting/finance operations — from financial reporting and cash management to budgeting, audits, and investor reporting. As the company scales (quickly), you’ll have the opportunity to hire and build out a full accounting team under you.

Responsibilities:

• Oversee all day-to-day accounting operations, including AP/AR, GL maintenance, and bank reconciliations
• Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements
• Manage cash flow forecasting, capital account tracking, and fund distributions
• Develop and maintain budgets, forecasts, and variance analyses
• Lead annual audits, tax filings, and compliance activities with external auditors and CPAs
• Support asset management and acquisitions with financial analysis and reporting
• Implement and refine accounting processes, systems, and internal controls
• Drive proactive solutions and process improvements with an ownership mentality

Requirements:

• 5-15 years of accounting experience in real estate investment or property management, ideally with commercial assets
• Strong technical accounting skills: GAAP, financial reporting, consolidations
• Hands-on experience setting up or optimizing accounting systems (QuickBooks, Yardi, AppFolio, or similar)
• Highly self-motivated with a “builder” mindset — comfortable being the sole accounting lead initially
• Professional maturity, excellent judgment, and attention to detail
• Ability to juggle competing priorities and adapt in a dynamic environment
• CPA or CPA-track preferred, but not required if offset by experience
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

Compensation: $120-160k base + bonus + benefits
