• Provide ad hoc financial analysis to support investment and asset-level decision-making

Qualifications:

• 7–10+ years of commercial real estate accounting or portfolio finance experience
• Strong understanding of property-level reporting and ownership/entity structures
• Experience working alongside asset management teams and interfacing with lenders
• Exposure to debt compliance, refinancing, or capital planning initiatives preferred
• Comfortable operating in a lean, high-responsibility environment
• Detail-oriented, analytical, and proactive
• Able to work independently while collaborating cross-functionally
• NYC-based or within commuting distance for periodic meetings preferred
