Job Overview

Our Client is a privately held real estate investment, development, and asset management enterprise headquartered in Edwards, Colorado. Operating across a diverse, multi-entity portfolio—spanning manufactured housing communities, extended-stay and RV operations, small multifamily, retail, commercial condos, self-storage, light industrial, and active ground-up construction—our client manages stabilized assets alongside active for-sale development projects. Built entirely within Yardi, the company operates through a complex web of operating subsidiaries, GP/LP partnership structures, equipment leases, and intercompany management fee networks. Our client provides a lean, high-ownership remote environment where executive accounting leadership directly safeguards financial integrity, debt compliance, and partner distributions.

The Role

Our Client is seeking a high-judgment, hands-on Remote Controller to serve as the senior financial officer for consolidated accounting operations. Reporting directly to the President, this team member will own the end-to-end consolidated reporting process, eliminate intercompany transactions, direct a team of two staff accountants, and maintain rigorous workpaper standards. The Controller will manage Construction-in-Progress (CIP) accounting, assemble lender draw packages, oversee GP/LP equity tracking and distribution waterfalls, direct CPA tax preparation (K-1s), and set up new entity accounting structures within Yardi.

- Manages investor return telemetry within Agora (or similar portals), posting tax documents, distribution notices, and return-of-capital statements.

- Serves as the primary contact for external CPA/tax advisors—coordinating K-1 preparation, entity-level tax strategies, depreciation schedules (real property, equipment, leasehold improvements), and year-end planning.
