• Deep financial modeling skills, including the ability to build property-level projections, fund roll-ups, and waterfall distributions.
• Expert proficiency in Excel required; experience with AI tools for financial analysis is required.
• Strong understanding of financial statements, with intermediate knowledge of GAAP accounting for real estate as a plus.
• Prior experience overseeing treasury functions, interfacing with institutional funds and lenders, and managing complex cash flows.
• Demonstrated ability to be a self-starter in a scrappy culture—jumping into problems, prioritizing strategically, and executing phased buildouts.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the potential to grow into a CFO role.
