About the role
We are a growing multifamily real estate company managing a diverse portfolio of residential properties across multiple states. We are seeking a detail-oriented and self-driven Accounts Payable Specialist to join our accounting team. This role sits at the center of our financial operations — processing a high volume of invoices, coordinating with vendors and property managers, and ensuring timely, accurate payment across all properties in our portfolio.
What you’ll do
• Process a large volume of invoices accurately and on time across a multi-property portfolio, ensuring each transaction is coded to the correct property, GL account, and cost center
• Manage the full AP cycle — invoice receipt, coding, approval routing, payment processing, and vendor reconciliation
• Communicate proactively with property managers, vendors, and internal stakeholders to obtain missing invoices, resolve discrepancies, and keep billing current
• Monitor AP aging reports, flag outstanding balances, and prioritize check runs within cash availability guidelines
• Support month-end close by ensuring all invoices are entered and accruals are identified before cut-off deadlines
• Maintain organized vendor records, W-9 files, and 1099 documentation in compliance with company policy
• Assist with ad hoc reporting and special projects as directed by the Controller or accounting leadership
Qualifications
• 2+ years of accounts payable experience, preferably in real estate, property management, or a multi-entity environment
• Demonstrated ability to manage a high volume of invoices — 300+ per month — while maintaining accuracy and meeting deadlines
• Strong communicator — comfortable following up with vendors, property managers, and approvers to gather missing information and drive billing to completion
• Experience with property management or accounting software (ResMan, Yardi, AppFolio, or similar); proficiency in Excel
• Solid understanding of GL coding, chart of accounts structure, and basic accounting principles
• Highly organized, self-motivated, and capable of managing competing priorities across multiple properties simultaneously
• Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Business, or a related field preferred; equivalent experience considered
Why join us
You’ll work alongside a collaborative accounting team in a fast-paced environment where your contributions are visible and valued. We offer competitive compensation, a stable and growing portfolio, and the opportunity to build expertise across a broad range of real estate entities.
