Senior Accountant
Salary: 90-110k

Join a highly stable, tight-knit investment firm where your work directly impacts investment decisions and investor reporting. If you’re looking for long-term growth, flexibility, and meaningful exposure to principals, this role is for you!

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Join a firm with exceptional tenure—employees build long-term careers here (20+ years)

  • True work-life balance with a 40-hour week and flexible schedule

  • Hybrid flexibility with 1 remote day per week

  • Exposure to complex investment structures, partnerships, and real estate assets

  • Small, collaborative team where your contributions are highly valued

  • Opportunity to learn from a long-tenured professional

  • Strong benefits package including medical, dental, vision, 401(k) with match, bonus, and PTO

  • Family-oriented culture with a supportive, low-turnover environment


Key Responsibilities for the Senior Accountant:

  • Prepare financial statements and reports for multiple entities (LLCs, partnerships, investors)

  • Maintain general ledger, cash activity tracking, and bank reconciliations

  • Manage capital calls, cash flow tracking, and loan/amortization schedules

  • Partner with asset managers to support IRR, ROI, and investment reporting

  • Coordinate with external tax firm and support K-1 preparation inputs

  • Process wires, checks, and intercompany fund transfers


Qualifications for the Senior Accountant:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting

  • 4+ years of accounting experience with financial statement preparation

  • Experience in real estate, investments, lending, or related industries preferred

  • Proficiency in Excel and QuickBooks (or similar systems)
