About Consolidated Investment Group

Real estate is built on numbers as much as it's built on buildings — and at Consolidated Investment Group, we've built our reputation on getting both right. As a real estate investment and management firm with a growing, varied portfolio of owned and managed properties, we operate where strategy meets execution, and where sharp financial judgment shapes every asset and every outcome. We're looking for people who don't just keep pace with a fast-moving industry — they help set it. If that sounds like you, let's talk.

The Opportunity

We're hiring a Senior Real Estate Portfolio Accountant to take full ownership of the numbers behind a defined slate of properties — not as a back-office function, but a critical member of the team. You'll run the complete accounting cycle for your portfolio end to end, translate the details into insights leadership can act on, and become the go-to financial voice for Asset Management, Property Management, Treasury, and Tax.. If you want your expertise to move the needle — not just document what already happened — this is that role.

• Execute wires, transfers, and ACH transactions with proper governance
• Monitor debt covenants and support loan management

Portfolio Analysis & Strategic Insight

• Perform budget-to-actual variance analysis and communicate key drivers to stakeholders
• Review external property management reports for accuracy and improvement opportunities

Development & Construction

• Audit development projects and validate construction spending
• Manage lien waivers and project reconciliations

Compliance & Process Leadership

• Ensure GAAP compliance and strong internal controls
• Drive process and system improvements
• Lead the 1099 process and vendor management

What We're Looking For

Required

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or a related field
• 5+ years of progressive accounting experience in corporate, real estate, or fund/investment environments
