Our client is a fast-growing startup reimagining urban living through flexible, fully furnished co-living spaces in NYC. They’re looking for a hands-on, tech-savvy Controller to take ownership of accounting operations in a lean, fast-paced environment — ideal for a Senior Associate Accountant or experienced Bookkeeper ready to step into a Controller role.

Own the financial truth of the company. Keep cash predictable, close the books without drama, and turn data into decisions the founders actually use. That’s it.

Responsibilities:

1. Financial stewardship

  • Close the books within 7 business days each month; surface wins, losses, and weird trends—no sugarcoating.
  • Build board-ready financial decks that mix facts, context, and “so-what” insights.
  • Coordinate income, sales, and 1099-tax filings; keep us audit-ready.

2. Operational accounting

  • Run a tight A/P process—approve, pay, and log vendor bills with zero late fees.
  • Maintain unit-level P&Ls inside our property-accounting stack; flag margin leaks by building.
  • Keep fixed-asset and lease schedules current so depreciation never surprises us.

3. Cash & capital

  • Drop a rolling 13-week cash forecast every Monday; update the model with actuals Monday AM.
  • Own investor file: rents, occupancy, new-lease economics vs. budget—no waiting for ops.

4. Team & tools

  • Hire, coach, and—when needed—replace accounting talent; build a bench, not a bottleneck.
  • Slash manual work with smarter processes or software; brag about every hour you save.

5. Payroll & people ops

  • Process semi-monthly payroll, handle onboard/off-board in the portal, sync benefit changes.

6. Risk & insurance

  • Renew corporate, property, and employee benefit policies on calendar—not crisis—timelines.

Requirements:

  • 6-10 yrs accounting experience; at least 2 in real estate or property-tech.
  • You’ve owned a 13-week cash forecast and lived to tell the tale.
  • Fluent in GAAP, lease accounting (ASC 842), and sales-tax quirks across NY counties.
  • CPA or CMA preferred—prove you know the rules before we break them.

Nice-to-haves:

  • Startup or PE-backed growth stories on your résumé.
  • Experience with property-management PMS (AppFolio, Yardi, etc.).
  • Opinionated about dashboards and willing to ship your own SQL
