Seattle, WA, United States Arboreal Management Full time
Location: Seattle Hybrid (In Office 2 days / week)
Reports To: Controller
Company: Arboreal Management
About Arboreal Management

Arboreal Management is a next-generation property management company focused exclusively on affordable and workforce housing. We bring operational discipline and modern technology to a fragmented industry-delivering better service to residents, better transparency to owners, and better outcomes for communities.

We manage thousands of units across dozens of entities, and we're growing fast-doubling in size every year without slowing down. We're building a team of mission-driven professionals who can move fast, solve real problems, and elevate what property management can be.
About the Role

We're looking for a kick-ass, growth-oriented Accountant Manager to join our core operations team. You'll be the go-to person for monthly close execution, client reporting, and banking operations across a complex and rapidly growing portfolio. You'll work hand-in-hand with our offshore accounting team (MAS), our U.S.-based property managers, and our investor clients.

This isn't a back-office role-it's a chance to lead from the center, roll up your sleeves, and help us build an accounting function that's fast, accurate, transparent, and built to scale. You'll ensure our reporting meets the highest fiduciary standards while staying tightly aligned with the realities of property operations.
Key Responsibilities
Month-End Close & Review
  • Own the close calendar across 50+ entities-track deliverables, follow up, unblock issues
  • Review financials prepared by MAS (offshore team), including GL, AP/AR, and bank recs
  • Identify and correct inconsistencies before reports go out to clients
Client and Team Coordination
  • Act as the primary accounting liaison for investor clients and their controllers
  • Coordinate with Property Managers on missing invoices, accruals, and exceptions
  • Prepare and deliver final reporting packages-accurate, polished, and on time
Banking & Treasury
  • Manage day-to-day banking: initiate wires, maintain access, track balances, handle fraud controls
  • Coordinate reserve tracking and banking compliance
  • Maintain relationships with banking partners in coordination with the Controller
Process & Systems Improvement
  • Document and improve month-end SOPs, especially handoffs with our offshore team
  • Collaborate on systems, tech tools, and automation opportunities
  • Help us build a lean, modern, audit-ready accounting stack
What You Bring
Must-Have:
  • 5+ years of accounting experience, preferably in property management, real estate, or multi-entity environments
  • Hands-on month-end close experience
  • Strong review skills-you catch what others miss
  • Clear communicator, especially in writing (email, Teams, reporting notes)
  • Comfortable working across time zones and functions, including with offshore teams
  • Available to come to the office 2 days/week
Bonus Points:
  • Experience coordinating with offshore teams
  • Client-facing or fund admin experience
  • Exposure to AppFolio, Yardi, or similar platforms
  • CPA, or CPA track (a plus, not a requirement)
Why Join Arboreal
  • Mission-driven: We do this to make housing better, not just to make money
  • Growth-stage: Big company ambition with small team flexibility
  • Remote-first: Work where you want, with quarterly in-person meetups
  • Room to grow: This role can evolve into Assistant Controller or beyond
  • Great people: Smart, scrappy, good-humored, and allergic to bureaucracy
To Apply

Send your resume and a brief note about why this role speaks to you. We value clarity, attention to detail, and initiative-so show us that in how you present yourself.
