• Develop, monitor, and update budgets associated with land development and vertical construction spending.

• Reclassify costs as needed to align expenditures with the appropriate projects, phases, and accounting categories.

• Perform bank reconciliations and assist with cash-related account analysis to support accurate financial reporting.

• Contribute to accounts payable and accounts receivable processes by reviewing entries and helping maintain complete documentation.

• Partner with operational and finance stakeholders to track housing-related costs and provide reliable accounting support for ongoing projects.

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a closely related field.
• Previous experience in accounting roles with responsibility for journal entries, reconciliations, and month-end close.
• Knowledge of general ledger activity, account analysis, and core financial reporting processes.
• Experience working with budgets tied to land development, construction, or homebuilding costs is strongly preferred.
