Job description

This is a growth role for a real estate accountant who wants to deepen their skill set, gain exposure to how assets actually operate, and grow alongside a scaling investment platform.

We’re partnering confidentially with a vertically integrated real estate investment and operating company that owns, develops, and manages high-quality assets across multiple U.S. markets. The platform works with institutional and family office capital.

They are hiring a Senior Property Accountant to take ownership of property-level accounting while learning directly from experienced leadership and partnering closely with asset management and operations. This role is designed for someone who is ready for more responsibility and visibility—but still wants mentorship and room to grow.

Why this role stands out

• “Senior” responsibility with support and mentorship, not sink-or-swim
• Direct exposure to asset management and operations
• Opportunity to grow into expanded responsibility as the platform scales
• A front-line view of how real estate performance is measured and improved
• Collaborative, entrepreneurial culture with strong leadership access
• Onsite team environment in Austin

What you’ll own (and grow into)

• Ownership of monthly close for a portfolio of real estate assets
• Journal entries, reconciliations, and property-level financial statements
• Budget-to-actual analysis and operating expense reviews
• Close coordination with property management on revenue and expenses
• Assistance with audits, tax reporting, and lender deliverables
• Exposure to intercompany accounting and multi-entity structures
• Participation in process improvements and system enhancements

This role is ideal for someone who

• Has 2–5+ years of accounting experience with real estate exposure
• Is ready for a step up in ownership, not just a new job title
• Understands core accounting and wants to learn how assets really work
• Is curious, coachable, and motivated by growth and responsibility
• Wants to build a long-term career in real estate accounting
• Enjoys being close to the business and asking thoughtful questions

Experience that’s helpful (not required)

• Property accounting or public accounting background with real estate clients
• Exposure to Yardi, MRI, AppFolio, or similar industry systems
• CAM reconciliations or property-level reporting
• CPA-track or interest in continued learning

  Location & compensation

  • Onsite role in Austin, Texas.
  • Competitive base salary with bonus potential and profit sharing
  • Strong visibility and a clear path to expanded responsibility over time

  Next steps

  This search is being conducted confidentially. Full details on the company, portfolio, and growth trajectory will be shared early with qualified candidates.

  If you’re a growth-oriented real estate accountant looking for a senior title with runway, this is a role worth exploring.
