Philippine-based US Accountant with real estate experience managing end-to-end accounting operations for real estate clients.
Responsibilities
- Imagine owning a clean, predictable close every month. Your checklists are sharp, reconciliations airtight, and reports deliver actionable insights to leadership. As a Philippine-based US Accountant with real estate expertise, you’ll support fast-growing US companies, brokerages, and CPA firms—turning chaos into order, and numbers into clarity.

You’ll manage end-to-end accounting operations for real estate clients—AP/AR, payroll, month-end close, reconciliations, and reporting. Along the way, you’ll standardize workflows, implement SOPs, and help expedite client onboarding by resolving uncategorized transactions and reconciling HUDs, commissions, and balance sheets.
