The ideal candidate is comfortable balancing recurring responsibilities with urgent requests while working with financial records, reporting tools, and internal partners.

Responsibilities:
• Manage the intake and processing of real estate tax bills for properties located in multiple states, ensuring records are entered accurately and routed for payment handling.

• Process assessment notices by recording incoming documents, distributing relevant information to external consultants, and issuing required notifications in line with lease obligations.
• Review tax-related budget information and revise estimates when actual bills, assessments, or supporting data indicate changes are needed.
• Prepare and provide backup materials that consultants need for appeals, helping keep filings complete and submitted within required timeframes.
• Monitor county and jurisdiction websites as needed to obtain paid receipts or verify current tax information for property records.
• Support internal teams by supplying tax documentation and related information for recovery, legal, and other cross-functional requests.
• Generate or maintain reports tied to taxing jurisdictions and assist with setting up newly acquired properties within applicable software platforms when needed.

Qualifications:

• Experience in accounting, tax administration, or property-related financial operations, preferably within a real estate environment.
• Ability to manage several deadlines at once while maintaining accuracy across recurring processes and time-sensitive requests.
• Strong analytical thinking and a willingness to learn complex tax cycles, assessment activity, and payment workflows.
• Proficiency with Excel and confidence working in accounting, reporting, or enterprise software systems.
• Effective written and verbal communication skills with the ability to collaborate across teams and with external partners.
• Excellent organizational skills, close attention to detail, and the ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced setting.
