About the Role

CBRE is hiring a Finance Manager to support a key account, one of our fastest-growing GWS Local accounts. This is a hands-on, in-the-weeds project accounting role - you'll be the person who knows exactly what's happening financially in a specific building and its associated products, not a high-level portfolio strategist. You'll partner closely with facilities operations and the client to open and process purchase orders, keep expense coding and billing accurate and audit-ready, and manage a Finance Coordinator.

What You'll Do

• Serve as the day-to-day finance point of contact for the account, working directly with facilities teams and the client
• Review and code expense reports, verifying line-item accuracy against project/product codes
• Reconcile billing to ensure it lines up correctly with contracted scope and client expectations
• Open, process, and track purchase orders across a large, active volume of projects, corralling input from multiple operators
• Prepare and maintain Excel-based financial trackers, reports, and analyses
• Support month-end close processes, including journal entries
• Manage and develop one Finance Coordinator
• Maintain vigilant, detailed awareness of the financial status of a specific building and its products
• Occasional exposure to corporate financials, though the primary focus is client-facing account financials

What You'll Need

• Bachelor's degree required
• 5-8 years of accounting or finance experience, ideally project accounting (property accounting experience is a plus) - this is not a tax accounting role
• Prior experience at a major commercial real estate services firm is a strong plus
• Strong Excel skills, including complex formulas/coding and calculations
• Hands-on journal entry and month-end close experience
• Proven ability to open, process, and track a high volume of purchase orders and projects, working cross-functionally with operators
• Strong organizational skills and a detail-oriented, inquisitive mindset

Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States without the need for visa sponsorship now or in the future
