About the Role

As an A/R & Owner Statement Accountant, you will own the revenue cycle from reservation through owner payout.

You'll be responsible for reconciling booking revenue and channel deposits in Guesty and QuickBooks Online, maintaining accurate separation between trust and operating activity, and producing the monthly owner statements our homeowners rely on.

Owner deadlines are critical, and this role plays a key part in ensuring they are met accurately and on time. You'll work closely with the Accounting Manager and support clean, accurate, auditable financials that meet the high standards of the Collective.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare and distribute monthly owner statements and support owner distributions on schedule.
• Reconcile reservation revenue and channel payouts from direct bookings, Airbnb, Vrbo, and other OTAs against deposits received.
• Perform guest folio audits and review undeposited funds and advance deposit activity.
• Apply owner chargebacks and reimbursable expenses accurately to the appropriate property and statement period.
• Bill homeowners for management fees, cleaning and maintenance rebills, damage claims, and other applicable charges.
• Manage Accounts Receivable (A/R) aging, including researching short payments, resolving discrepancies, and following up on outstanding balances.
• Research and resolve chargebacks, refunds, and payment processing exceptions.
• Prepare draft bank reconciliations for trust and operating accounts.
• File applicable county and state lodging taxes.
• Prepare month-end journal entries and reconciliations for assigned properties.
• Respond to owner and internal team inquiries accurately, clearly, and promptly.
• Support annual audits, financial reporting, and other accounting projects as needed.

Who You Are

We're looking for someone who is:

• Extremely detail-oriented and committed to accuracy.
• Trustworthy when handling sensitive financial and owner information.
• Process-driven, organized, and reliable.
• A strong problem-solver who can trace a variance back to its source rather than simply writing it off.
• A clear communicator who can work effectively with homeowners, accounting teams, and non-accounting teammates.
• A fast learner with strong technical aptitude.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, growing environment.
• Accountable for deadlines and able to manage multiple priorities without sacrificing accuracy.
