This is a senior role with real authority and real accountability — you'll lead the Accounting team, own the month-end close, and serve as the financial backbone of a company that moves fast and expects precision. Financial and operational data that is accurate, consistently defined, and ready to drive decisions — not just reports.

Our client is a growing property management company looking for a Corporate Controller to own the integrity of our financial operations. This is a senior role with real authority and real accountability — you'll lead the Accounting team, own the month-end close, and serve as the financial backbone of a company that moves fast and expects precision. WHAT YOU WILL OWN:? The close. Month-end, year-end, accruals, reconciliations — done accurately and on schedule, every time. ? The team. You'll lead and develop the Accounting team, set the standard, and build capacity that scales with the company. ? Internal controls. Design them, document them, test them, and fix them when they fail. You are the last line of defense on financial integrity. ? The balance sheet. AR, AP, cash, fixed assets — reconciled, current, and explainable at any moment. ? GAAP compliance and audit readiness. You know the rules and you follow them. Audit findings are resolved, not buried. ? Data you can trust. Financial and operational data that is accurate, consistently defined, and ready to drive decisions — not just reports. ? Investor reporting support. Property-level financials that are clean, reconciled, and distribution-ready before every reporting cycle. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR ? You are a technical expert in accounting. GAAP is not a reference document — it's second nature. ? You build systems, not workarounds. When a process breaks, your instinct is to fix the root cause, document the fix, and train the team. ? You are precise under pressure. The close doesn't slip because you're busy. It's too important. ? You lead by standard. Your team knows what right looks like because you show them every day. ? You are calm, methodical, and thorough. You don't chase trends. You execute fundamentals at a high level, consistently. ? You own your outcomes. When something is wrong, you say so and you fix it. No deflection, no excuses. #hc234335
