Accounting Administrator

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Casago First Coast is a vacation rental property management company operating across multiple Florida markets and part of the growing Casago franchise network. We are focused on delivering exceptional experiences for both homeowners and guests through a combination of responsive local service, operational excellence, and a strong commitment to accountability.

As a fast-growing company, we take our financial, operational, and regulatory responsibilities seriously. Our team values professionalism, accuracy, collaboration, and doing things the right way. We move quickly, support one another, and are committed to building long-term trust with our homeowners, guests, and team members alike.

POSITION SUMMARY

We are building an in-house finance and compliance function. This role owns two things: the day-to-day financial operations of the business and the regulatory compliance lifecycle for our properties across multiple Florida jurisdictions.

This is not a back-office support role. You will be working directly in our systems, managing both the numbers and the permits. You will also be tracking licenses, managing renewals, and making sure we are never caught off-guard by a regulation change or a missed filing deadline.

The right person has direct short-term rental or vacation rental experience, understands trust accounting, and brings the organizational discipline to manage a high volume of ongoing tasks without losing detail.

• Month-end trust report reconciliation to verify system health

Regulatory Compliance & Permitting

• Apply for and track city/county business licenses and STR permits across all active markets
• Research, document, and maintain a living database of local STR regulations by jurisdiction
