Senior Accountant | Real Estate

Full-time

Connect Search, LLC

Fast-scaling retail real estate developer in the northwest Chicago suburbs hiring Senior Accountant to join their team. If you want direct access to leadership, a seat at the table, and work that actually moves the needle — this is it.

Keys to an Interview: Senior Accountant | Real Estate

  • 3+ years of accounting experience in real estate development, construction, or property management
  • Hands-on Yardi Voyager experience
  • Full-cycle AP and month-end close ownership

Key Responsibilities: Senior Accountant | Real Estate

  • Own the books across multiple entities — journal entries, reconciliations, and monthly close from start to finish
  • Keep vendors happy and payments moving — you'll manage the full AP process including W-9s, 1099s, and remittance
  • Dig into the numbers behind each property — variance analysis, balance sheet review, and financial statement support
  • Partner with project managers on active construction deals — tracking budgets, coordinating draw packages, and organizing lender documentation
  • Pull and synthesize data across Yardi and Procore to keep development projects reporting clean and on time
  • Handle the tenant side of the ledger — monthly billings, collections follow-up, security deposits, and rent rolls
  • Lead the annual CAM reconciliation process from compiling actuals through drafting tenant statements
  • Build as you go — document the processes you create and flag opportunities to automate or streamline
  • Support tax prep coordination and help roll out new Yardi modules as the platform grows
