Key Accountabilities:

• Investment Modeling & Underwriting: You will be the primary lead on modeling new opportunities. You will take raw data from brokers or off-market sources, build complex pro-formas from scratch, and present the investment case to the committee.
• Preliminary Investment Committee (PIC) Leadership: You serve as the "Gatekeeper." Before any deal reaches the Founders, you are responsible for the internal audit of the case—stress-testing exit caps, opex loads, and reno timelines. You are the final line of defense for the firm's capital.

• Tax Strategy & Compliance Oversight: You aren't just filing forms; you are the architect. You will manage the tax filing checklist for all 40+ (and growing) entities, ensuring every K-1 is issued on time and that we are maximizing depreciation and cost-segregation strategies across the portfolio.
• Institutional Reporting & Audit: You will design and produce the quarterly "Investor Report" and "Lender Compliance" packages. You must be able to defend our financials to an institutional auditor or a Life-Co lender with absolute authority.
• Entity & Corporate Housekeeping: You will interface directly with Investor Counsel to resolve legal issues and ensure all corporate entities remain in "Good Standing" across multiple states. You are the "Compliance Officer" for the firm.

• System Architecture: You will help design the infrastructure (CRM workflows, checks and balances) to allow the firm to scale without breaking.

Execution Over Delegation :

We are a lean firm where the Director is expected to "turn the wrenches," not just design the machine. If you are looking to sit in a strategy room and wait for reports to hit your desk, this is not the job for you. You must be an Ambivert—equally comfortable in deep-work silence building a complex model as you are in high-stakes confrontations with vendors or lenders. We are looking for the architect who is excited to turn every wrench today, so they can effectively lead the entire department tomorrow."
