Job Description
DIRECTOR OF ACCOUNTING / Senior Accountant / Full-Charge
Location: In-office (preferred) OR 100% Remote We are open to candidates in the United States, Mexico, or other countries (strong preference for Mexico or U.S. time-zone friendly locations). Reliable high-speed internet and a quiet professional workspace are required for remote candidates.
Compensation: Competitive salary (commensurate with experience and location) + PTO + performance bonuses/profit-sharing potential
About Us: We are a fast-growing, entrepreneur-owned real estate ecosystem that operates multiple companies under one roof — including a real estate brokerage/property management company, a real estate holding company with 40+ properties, a general contracting firm, and an insurance brokerage. Accuracy, organization, and airtight financials are non-negotiable — this role is the backbone of our entire operation.
About The Role: We are looking for a meticulous, experienced accounting professional who thrives on owning the entire bookkeeping and reconciliation process from start to finish. This is not an “assist” or “review” position — you will personally handle 100% of the day-to-day and month-end accounting for our 4 current (and growing) companies in QuickBooks Online, plus reconciliation against our property management software ledger.
You will be the final set of eyes ensuring every penny is accounted for and every financial statement is perfect.
Key Responsibilities:
- Full ownership of QuickBooks Online for all entities (4–5 separate company files)
- Daily/weekly transaction entry for all companies (bank feeds, bills, invoices, payroll journal entries, credit card feeds, etc.)
- 100% of bank, credit card, and loan reconciliations every month — zero exceptions
- Monthly reconciliation of intercompany transfers, due-to/due-from accounts, maintenance reserve accounts, and owner distributions between the property management company and the real estate holding company
- Reconciliation of QuickBooks against AppFolio (or similar property management software) — tenant ledgers, security deposits, management fees, owner statements, etc.
- Proper use of Class Tracking and Location tracking in the real estate files (and eventually others)
- Produce clean, accurate, month-end financials (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, A/R & A/P aging) for all entities by the 5th working day of the following month
- Manage payroll journal entries and 401(k) contributions (we use Gusto — you do NOT process payroll, just post the JE’s)
- Year-end prep and delivery of clean books to our external CPA for tax returns
- Work directly with owners and department heads to explain variances and answer financial questions
- Identify and implement process improvements (better class/location setup, automating reports, cleaning up historical messes, etc.)
You’re Probably NOT the Right Fit If…
- You’ve only worked in corporate environments with an accounting team and never fully owned the books yourself
- You need someone to hold your hand through reconciliations
- You consider a 15-cent unexplained variance “no big deal”
- You hate real estate accounting complexities (tenant ledgers, security deposits, reserves, transfers, etc.)
Why You’ll Love This Job
- You will report directly to the owners — no layers of bureaucracy
- Your work directly impacts big decisions and the growth of the company
- Huge opportunity to clean up, organize, and build scalable systems as we continue acquiring properties and growing the businesses
- Competitive pay, PTO, and real potential for bonuses/profit sharing as the company grows
- Work with a small, high-energy team that values precision and results
- If you’re the type of person who gets satisfaction from a perfectly reconciled bank statement and financials that are 100% audit-ready, we want to talk to you.
How to Apply:
Send an email to: with “Senior Accountant – [Your Name] – [City/Country]” as the subject line with your resume and a short note answering these three questions:
- How many QuickBooks company files do you currently manage?
- Tell us about the most complex reconciliation or cleanup project you’ve handled (the messier the better).
- Your salary expectations (please provide in USD).
We’re hiring immediately — qualified candidates will hear back within 24–48 hours.
We look forward to meeting our new financial perfectionist!
Requirements & Skills
- 2+ years of full-charge bookkeeping or senior accounting experience
- Expert-level QuickBooks Online proficiency (you will be tested)
- Proven track record of reconciling complex multi-company books with intercompany activity, reserve accounts, and property management transfers
- Extremely high attention to detail — “close enough” is not in your vocabulary
- Strong understanding of accrual-basis accounting and proper financial statement presentation
- Experience with class and location tracking in QuickBooks
- Real estate, property management, or construction accounting experience is a big plus
- Experience with AppFolio (or Yardi, Buildium, Rent Manager, Propertyware, etc.) is a significant advantage
- Ability to manage multiple entities and tight deadlines without dropping the ball
- Fluent professional English (written and spoken) — you’ll interact directly with the owners regularly
