Start in the books. Grow into a leadership seat.
We're hiring a detail-driven account manager who wants a real path from doing the work to leading it, at a firm that helps small businesses and nonprofits tell their financial story, clearly and accurately. QuickBooks Online and Desktop wiz, GAAP fluency, and cash/accrual know-how required; curiosity and comfort with AI tools strongly preferred. This position starts as Part-Time to grow into Full-Time with client load increases.
ABOUT CAMPBELL MANAGEMENT CONSULTING
Campbell Management Consulting is a bookkeeping firm that helps small businesses and nonprofits tell their financial story, clearly and professionally. We turn the numbers into something our clients can actually read, trust, and act on. Our work is anchored in our five values: Service, Trust, Optimization, Resilience, and a Yearning to Grow, the same standards we bring to every set of books we touch.
ABOUT THE ROLE
This is a role designed to grow. In your first months, you'll work hands-on in client books: data entry, reconciliations, and month-end close. You will learn our clients and our standards from the inside. As you build mastery and we welcome new clients, the role transitions into full Account Manager responsibility: reviewing the team's work, serving as the first point of escalation, and owning the quality of everything that reaches our clients. If you want a clear path from doing the work to leading it, this role is built for you.
WHAT YOU'LL DO FIRST
- Maintain client books in QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop: categorization, journal entries, and accurate data entry
- Perform bank, credit card, and balance sheet reconciliations
- Manage accounts payable, accounts receivable, and month-end close
- Process payroll, sales tax filings, and 1099s
- Keep records both cash and accrual-basis and GAAP-aligned across both for-profit and nonprofit (fund accounting) clients
WHAT YOU'LL GROW INTO
- Reviewing and approving the team's work before it reaches clients
- Serving as the first point of escalation for our bookkeepers
- Owning client relationships as their primary point of contact
- Mentoring team members on bookkeeping fundamentals and CMC standards
- Supporting the year-end handoff to clients' CPAs
- Developing into fractional CFO–level advisory for clients who need strategic financial guidance
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Strong, self-starter who takes initiative and follows through
- High integrity, sharp attention to detail, and strong organization
- Strong communicator
- KPI development and tracking
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting (or a closely related field)
- Strong command of GAAP and accrual-basis accounting
- Multi-client or public accounting experience, i.e. you've managed several sets of books at once, not just one company's
- Deep QuickBooks Online proficiency. A ProAdvisor certification alone isn't enough. You must be able to troubleshoot quickly and resolve tricky platform issues with real fluency.
- Working proficiency in QuickBooks Desktop
- Experience with nonprofit fund accounting (or strong readiness to learn it)
- Comfort using automation and AI-assisted tools to streamline workflows. This is essential to how we work and where we're headed.
- Supervisory potential. You are ready to review others' work and grow into leadership
NICE TO HAVE
- Notion, Doublehq, AI tool fluency (Kick, Puzzle, etc)
- CPA or active progress toward it
- Experience mentoring or training junior staff
- Exposure to fractional CFO or advisory work
HOURS & PAY
Part-time, 25–30 hours per week to start, growing toward 30–40 hours as our client load increases. $30–$40 per hour, depending on experience.
HOW TO APPLY
Email your resume along with your answers to the three questions below to resume@campbellmc.com. Please set your subject line to read exactly: Reconciled & Ready — [Your Name]. We carefully review every application that follows these instructions.
APPLICATION QUESTIONS:
1. This role starts hands-on in client books and grows into reviewing others' work and managing client relationships. Tell us about a time you moved from doing the work to leading or reviewing it. What changed in how you operated, and what did you learn?
2. Describe a genuinely messy or broken situation you untangled in QuickBooks (Online or Desktop). What was wrong, how did you diagnose it, and how did you fix it?
3. You'll juggle multiple clients on both cash and accrual-basis books, including nonprofits. How do you keep several sets of books accurate and on schedule and how do you catch your own errors before they ever reach a client?
Campbell Management Consulting is an equal opportunity employer.

Tips for Your Remote Property Accountant Job Search
Tailor your resume to property types
Hiring managers distinguish between multifamily, commercial, and retail portfolios. Call out the property types you've worked with directly on your resume, because a REIT controller reads that differently than a residential property management firm does.
Highlight CAM reconciliation experience explicitly
Common area maintenance reconciliations are a core differentiator for property accountants. If you've prepared or reviewed CAM recs, name the volume and complexity, number of leases or properties, so reviewers can assess your scope without guessing.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists property accountant openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Verify your Yardi or MRI proficiency before applying
Most property accounting postings list Yardi or MRI Software as a requirement, not a nice-to-have. Know which version you've used and be ready to name specific modules, like Yardi Voyager or MRI Commercial Management, during the phone screen.
Frame your interview answers around month-end close
Interviewers consistently probe your close process. Walk through your personal steps, journal entries, bank recs, accruals, financial package delivery, and name the typical cycle length you've maintained so they can compare it to their own expectations.
Negotiate using the full offer, not base salary alone
Property accounting roles often include bonuses tied to portfolio performance or year-end reconciliations. Ask about bonus structure, CPA exam reimbursement, and continuing education support before accepting, because those terms vary significantly across employers.
Remote Property Accountant Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote property accountant job?
Target companies that already run distributed teams, since they hire remotely by default and know how to onboard someone they never meet in person. Remote property accountant employers screen hard for self-direction and clear written communication on top of the core skills, so show evidence you can own work without someone over your shoulder. Apply to the openings above that match your experience.
Which companies hire remote property accountants?
Employers currently hiring remote property accountants include Bryten, JLL, and IllumiGEN, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Remote-first firms and large companies running distributed teams post the most remote property accountant roles.
Can you get a remote property accountant job with no experience?
Yes, but it is harder than an on-site role, because remote work expects you to operate independently from the start. Entry-level remote property accountant openings do exist, especially at remote-first companies, and a portfolio of real work helps more than a long resume. Applying broadly to the roles that fit improves your odds.
Do you need a degree for remote property accountant jobs?
Not always. Many employers hire remote property accountants on demonstrated skills and prior work rather than a specific degree, though some larger companies still prefer one. Showing relevant results matters more than a credential for most remote property accountant roles.
Which industries hire the most remote property accountants?
Remote property accountant roles concentrate in Construction & Real Estate, Education, and Agriculture & Farming, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. These sectors run distributed teams and hire property accountants remotely most consistently.
