The numbers behind a living real estate portfolio have to be as
trustworthy as the places themselves. This role owns the
financial truth that development, ownership, and operations rely
on—so capital is deployed with discipline, partners stay
confident, and communities get projects that hold up over time.
You will not just close the books. You will make performance
visible early enough to change it.

Performance Objectives

* Deliver a timely, audit-ready monthly and annual close across
entities, joint ventures, and project companies, with exceptions

analysis that leadership uses to steer development, asset, and
operating results.
* Protect liquidity by forecasting cash, monitoring covenants,
and escalating risks with recommended actions, not just flags.
* Build budgets and long-range plans that connect capital
commitments, operating costs, and pro formas to actual returns.
* Tighten controls, reconciliations, and compliance so lender,
investor, tax, and audit requirements are met on schedule.
* Partner with development, asset, and property leaders to
improve margin, cost control, and return on invested capital.
* Scale the finance team and reporting cadence so quality holds
as the portfolio grows.
