  • Establish and maintain project controls within Yardi, including job cost budgets, contracts, sources and uses, and expense tracking.
  • Review and code development and construction transactions to ensure accurate cost allocation.
  • Prepare anticipated cost reports, cash flow projections, and other financial analyses.
  • Reconcile intercompany transactions, including due-to/due-from accounts.
  • Maintain organized project documentation to support audits, compliance reviews, and funder reporting.
  • Support monthly close and annual audit processes related to the development pipeline.
Construction Loan Draw Administration
  • Lead the construction loan draw process across multiple active development projects.
  • Prepare, review, and submit draw packages to lenders, investors, and public agencies.
  • Coordinate supporting documentation, including pay applications, lien waivers, title reports, inspection reports, and cost backup.
  • Track sources and uses of funds to ensure compliance with approved budgets and financing requirements.
  • Monitor contingency balances and exposure.
  • Coordinate with vendors and project teams to ensure invoices align with contracts, change orders, and approved budgets.
  • Reconcile draw activity across Yardi job cost, general ledger, bank statements, and lender tracking systems.
  • Monitor draw schedules to ensure timely reimbursement of project expenditures.
  • Approve invoices and coordinate with Accounts Payable on vendor setup and payment processing.
  • Support project closeout activities, including final cost certification, reconciliations, and documentation.
Finance Operations & Process Improvement
  • Serve as a key cross-functional partner on development finance matters, including cash management, funding timelines, and compliance.
  • Collaborate with Finance, IT, and external consultants to improve accounting systems and processes, including Yardi optimization initiatives.

  • Advanced Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookups, financial modeling, and budget tracking.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced development environment.
