• You will work closely with executive leadership to provide financial visibility, support strategic decisions, and ensure scalable accounting processes are implemented across branches.

• Improve reporting efficiency and financial transparency
• Oversee purchasing controls and expense management

Cross-Departmental Collaboration:

• Support franchise and branch financial reporting
• Guide junior accounting staff where applicable

• Proven experience managing commission-based revenue structures
• Advanced Excel proficiency (financial modeling, pivot tables, forecasting)
• Experience with accounting software such as QuickBooks
• Familiarity with property management software (Yardi or similar platforms)
• Strong analytical, leadership, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to operate independently in a fast-growth environment

Preferred Credentials:

• ICAN / ACCA certification (or in progress)
