- Decode tenant leases to properly recognize revenue, apply escalations, and execute flawless year-end true-ups.

Master Tenant & Lease Accounting
- Keep tenant relationships positive and professional – send invoices, record payments, and follow up like a boss.
- Stay on top of collections and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
- Review lease structures and help us recover every dollar we're owed through CAM and operating expense reconciliations.

What We’re Looking For
- Experience: 4–5 years of accounting experience, ideally in commercial real estate or property management.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance. CPA is a plus, but not required.
- Tech Savvy: You’re a whiz with Microsoft Excel and have experience with accounting software like Yardi, MRI, Sage, or similar.
- Detail-Oriented & Driven: You have strong analytical chops and a laser focus on accuracy.
- Communicator & Collaborator: You’re a team player with excellent communication skills who can work independently and keep projects on track.
