We are seeking a highly analytical, hands-on Property Finance Manager to take ownership of property-level financial accuracy, owner financial reporting, and accounting oversight for a portfolio of approximately 30 properties.

This is not primarily a financial statement preparation role. As we continue automating our accounting and reporting processes, the position will focus increasingly on reviewing financial information, identifying errors, interpreting financial performance, and providing actionable insights.

The successful candidate will also serve as a key operational backup to our Head of Accounting, helping build a scalable finance organization with strong financial controls and reduced dependency on any single individual.

Key Responsibilities

1. Property Financial Reporting and Quality Control • Own the accuracy, completeness, and timely delivery of monthly owner financial statements for an

assigned portfolio of approximately 30+ properties.

• Review property-level P&Ls, balance sheets, reconciliations, and supporting schedules to identify errors, unusual fluctuations, and missing transactions.

• Validate owner statements against property management agreements, ensuring accurate management fees, owner expenses, allocations, and distributions.

• Oversee preparation of financial reporting packages, including hands-on compilation when necessary, while progressively transitioning to automated reporting through Campfire.

• Investigate discrepancies and independently drive issues to resolution before reports are distributed.

2. Hospitality Financial Analysis and Business Partnering • Analyze property-level revenue, operating expenses, profitability, and financial performance.

• Identify accounting issues, unusual trends, and opportunities for operational or financial improvement.

• Provide clear financial explanations and actionable recommendations to Operations, Asset Management, and leadership.
