  • Review fixed asset reports and construction accounting to ensure alignment with tax policies.
  • Support the CFO on special projects, and lead improvements in tax-related technology and systems.
  • Prepare and issue 1099s; maintain light bookkeeping for select entities.
  • Supervise one team member.

What We’re Looking For

  • CPA required with a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Taxation.
  • 5–6 years of experience in tax compliance and planning, preferably with a focus on real estate or partnership structures.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel; knowledge of MRI software is a plus.
  • Strong understanding of partnership accounting and taxation.
  • Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
  • Proven ability to work cross-functionally and manage sensitive financial data with discretion.
  • Comfortable working both independently and as part of a collaborative team.

Core Competencies

  • Adaptable and resourceful, with the ability to manage multiple deadlines.
