Job Description



This Assistant Controller opportunity offers broad ownership across a growing commercial real estate platform, with direct exposure to executive leadership and multiple business divisions. It is an ideal next step for an accounting leader who wants hands-on impact, operational visibility, and room to strengthen processes.

Assistant Controller


Salary: $135,000 - $150,000 + bonus
Location: Miami Lakes, FL - 100% in office

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • Take ownership of accounting across property management, development, brokerage, and corporate operations.

  • Broaden your expertise through exposure to corporate, property, construction, and lease accounting.

  • Lead improvements to internal controls, accounting policies, reporting, and operational processes.

  • Collaborate closely with property managers, project managers, brokers, and external accounting partners.

  • Work in a hands-on leadership role where your recommendations can directly influence efficiency and growth.

  • Access performance-based bonus potential, employer-supported healthcare options, paid time off, holidays, and professional development opportunities.


Key Responsibilities for the Assistant Controller:



  • Lead month-end and year-end close, consolidated financial reporting, forecasting, treasury, and cash management.

  • Oversee property management accounting, including budgeting, reconciliations, financial analysis, banking activity, and client reporting.

  • Manage development and construction accounting, including job costs, commitments, draw requests, lender packages, and budget-to-actual reporting.

  • Maintain brokerage revenue schedules and oversee commission accounting, receivables, and closing reconciliations.

  • Coordinate audits, tax filings, compliance requirements, and internal control enhancements.

  • Provide senior leadership with accurate reporting and data-driven financial insights.


Qualifications for the Assistant Controller:



  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; CPA preferred.

  • 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 3–5 years in commercial real estate.

  • Strong knowledge of GAAP and real estate accounting practices.

  • Advanced Excel skills and subject-matter expertise in Yardi, MRI, or comparable real estate accounting software.
