Accounting Manager – Property Management
North Vancouver, BC
Confidential Search
Salary: $110,000 to $125,000, depending on experience
Burke Recruiting is working on a confidential search for an Accounting Manager with a well-established property management company based in North Vancouver.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys property accounting, financial reporting, deadlines, team coordination, and bringing structure to a busy accounting function.
The company manages a portfolio of commercial and residential properties and is looking for someone who can help keep month-end reporting, budgeting, reconciliations, compliance deadlines, and team workflow on track.
This is not a remote role. The position is primarily office-based in North Vancouver, so this will be best suited to someone already on the North Shore or genuinely comfortable commuting to North Vancouver.
The Role
The Accounting Manager will help oversee the property accounting function and work closely with the Director of Finance, property managers, and accounting staff.
Key responsibilities include:
- Overseeing full-cycle accounting for a portfolio of commercial and residential properties
- Reviewing monthly and annual financial statements
- Supporting month-end and year-end reporting deadlines
- Reviewing CAM reconciliations, operating cost recoveries, and property tax reconciliations
- Monitoring rent rolls, tenant billing, AR, collections, AP, and expense allocations
- Supporting annual budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow planning
- Helping establish clear timelines, priorities, and workflows for the accounting team
- Providing guidance, feedback, and mentorship to property accountants and accounting support staff
- Supporting internal controls, audit preparation, tax compliance, and process improvements
- Working closely with property managers to ensure reporting is accurate, timely, and useful
What We Are Looking For
The ideal candidate will bring:
- Strong property accounting or real estate accounting experience
- Experience with commercial and/or residential property portfolios
- CAM reconciliation and operating cost recovery experience
- Strong month-end, reporting, budgeting, and reconciliation skills
- Experience supervising, mentoring, or coordinating accounting staff
- Excellent attention to detail and follow-through
- Strong Excel skills
- Experience with Yardi or similar property management/accounting software
- CPA designation preferred, or CPA-level experience
This role would suit someone who is hands-on, organized, deadline-driven, and comfortable being the person who keeps the accounting workflow moving. The team needs someone who can plan ahead, work backwards from deadlines, follow up, and make sure reporting is completed accurately and on time.
Compensation
Salary is expected to be in the range of $110,000 to $125,000, depending on experience.
