Staff Accountant II

Fifteen Group Capital LLC is a Miami-based real estate private investment firm with a sharp focus on opportunity-driven, value-added acquisitions across multifamily, commercial, and mixed-use assets in Florida, Texas, and the broader Sunbelt. We are not a large institution — we are a lean, high-performing team of investment professionals who move quickly, think creatively, and build lasting value in markets where others see complexity. Our portfolio spans multiple entities, properties, and operating companies, and our Finance & Accounting team sits at the center of it all — providing the financial infrastructure that supports every acquisition decision, capital deployment, and asset management initiative we undertake. If you are looking for a role where your work is visible, your contributions matter, and there is a clear path to grow, this is it.

THE OPPORTUNITY

If you thrive in a structured but entrepreneurial environment, enjoy variety, and want to work on a portfolio that is always growing, we would love to meet you.
