Job description

MAVI places experienced finance and accounting professionals into senior, high-ownership roles at high-growth US companies. Founded in 2023 and backed by a $4 million seed round led by Harlem Capital, MAVI was recently featured in TechCrunch.

Our professionals join in-house finance teams in full-time, long-term roles, not short-term projects. The companies we work with range from venture- and PE-backed businesses to public companies and CFO advisory firms, including Athena Club, MotherDuck, and Within.

The work centers on judgment. As AI takes over more transactional accounting, the people who review the output, question it, and own the result matter more than ever. MAVI professionals work alongside US finance leaders, using AI tools to do more and applying the judgment to catch what those tools get wrong. At one client, an AR dashboard now used across the organization was built almost entirely by MAVI talent.

We stay involved throughout, from role alignment and interview preparation to onboarding and long-term career development.

The Role

We are seeking a Property Accounting Manager to own property-level accounting across a real estate portfolio at a US real estate owner and operator, working remotely from Argentina.

You will lead the area's people and its day-to-day results, reporting to the Controller or VP of Finance, while staying hands-on whenever the close or an audit needs it.

What You'll Own

• Property close. Close property ledgers monthly, including rent, recoveries, and operating expenses.
• CAM reconciliations. Prepare annual CAM, tax, and insurance reconciliations for tenants.
• Tenant receivables. Manage tenant receivables, deposits, and straight-line rent.
• Owner and lender reporting. Prepare owner, investor, and lender reporting packages.
• Portfolio reporting. Consolidate property results into portfolio and fund reporting.
• The team. Lead, review, and develop a team of accountants, setting clear standards for quality and timeliness.
• Controls. Design and maintain the controls and approval workflows for your area, and fix gaps before an auditor finds them.

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years of accounting experience
• Experience leading accountants and owning the review of their work
• Experience with property accounting, including rent rolls and CAM reconciliations
• US GAAP experience, or strong Argentine GAAP (FACPCE) or IFRS experience with exposure to US clients or entities
• Experience with Yardi, AppFolio, MRI, or RealPage
• Strong written and spoken English for daily work with US teams
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, or an equivalent professional qualification

Preferred

• Experience with commercial or multifamily portfolios
• Experience using AI tools in accounting workflows, with the judgment to review and correct AI-generated output

Who This Role Is For

An accounting manager who builds a team that closes cleanly without heroics, and who is as comfortable coaching an accountant as presenting to the CFO.

Why Join Through MAVI

• Own property-level accounting across a real estate portfolio for a US real estate owner and operator, working directly with US finance leadership
• Full-time, long-term placement, with MAVI handling cross-border contracts, compliance, and payroll
• USD-denominated compensation aligned with experience and scope
• Progress toward Assistant Controller and Controller opportunities through MAVI

Work Arrangement

This is a fully remote role with a single client company for the duration of the engagement. Full-time roles require a minimum of 4 hours of daily overlap with US Eastern Time (ET); part-time roles require a minimum of 2 hours.
