As a Property Accountant, you'll own the full accounting operations for a defined group of vacation rental property management companies — serving as their primary accounting resource, driving standardization, and playing a hands-on role in integrating them into our consolidated platform. This is a ground-floor opportunity to help build the processes and standards that will define how accounting works across our growing portfolio.What You'll OwnPortfolio Accounting Operations You own the day-to-day and month-end accounting for your assigned portfolio of companies — including bank reconciliations, trust account management, owner statement generation, payment processing, occupancy tax remittance, and general ledger recording. When things aren't clean, you make them clean.Monthly Close You drive the close process within your assigned property management systems, ensuring all transactions are finalized accurately and on time to support consolidated reporting.Field Partnership & Customer Service You are the accounting face of HQ to your portfolio companies. That means being responsive, knowledgeable, and solutions-oriented when local operators, owners, and back-office teams come to you with accounting questions, system issues, or payment escalations.Integration & Standardization You'll play an active role in onboarding newly acquired companies onto our accounting systems and standards — including contributing to our NetSuite ERP integration alongside the technology and accounting teams — and driving harmonization of charts of accounts, policies, and procedures across your portfolio.Process Improvement You don't just maintain — you improve. You'll identify opportunities to streamline workflows, tighten controls, and raise the standard of accounting operations across your assigned companies.RequirementsMust-haves:

A strong accounting foundation — you understand the fundamentals and can apply them in a fast-moving, multi-entity environment.
A genuine customer service mindset — you're comfortable being a trusted resource to field operators and representing the accounting organization with professionalism and care.
Comfort with ambiguity — escalation frameworks are still being built, and you'll need good judgment about when to act and when to ask.
A bias toward clean — you're not satisfied with "good enough" and you'll roll up your sleeves on a clean-up effort without being asked twice.
Experience with property management accounting systems (Guesty, Streamline, Track, or similar).
This is a full-time, work-from-home set-up. You need to have your own workspace, and a reliable and stable internet connection with a speed of not less than 100mbps.
The schedule for this role aligns with the US working hours. You must be agreeable to work night shift and during PH holidays.

Preferred but not required:

2+ years of progressive accounting experience, ideally in public accounting, a startup, or a high-growth environment; we're open to slightly more senior candidates with the right mix of skills
Experience with NetSuite
Advanced Excel skills
Background in vacation rental, hospitality, or property management
Experience in a PE-backed, roll-up, or M&A-intensive environment CPA license
