About Howard Financial

Howard Financial is a tech-forward outsourced accounting and finance firm founded in 2023, delivering full-cycle accounting, controllership, and advisory services to clients across four verticals: Vacation Rental, Hospitality, Consumer & E-Commerce, and Development & Real Estate. We build lean, high-performing finance teams for our clients and pair them with modern tools and streamlined processes — no legacy bureaucracy, no bloated hierarchies.

ROLE PURPOSE

We are hiring an Accountant with a rock-solid accounting background and deep expertise in Hospitality and Vacation Rentals to support one or more of our high-growth clients.

This is not a bookkeeping role. We need a technically strong accountant who thoroughly understands full-cycle US GAAP accounting, complex revenue recognition, and trust/escrow dynamics specific to the hospitality sector. You will independently own the month-end close cycle, review the work of junior team members, resolve complex technical discrepancies,



and serve as the technical backbone of the account — working alongside a Controller or Sr. Controller who oversees overall account strategy.

What You'll Do

Own Full-Cycle Month-End Close: Lead and execute the complete close process for complex Vacation Rental and Hospitality accounts, ensuring GAAP compliance, precise accruals, and clean balance sheets.
Complex Reconciliations & Revenue Recognition: Reconcile high-volume, multi-property transaction data, including owner statements, trust/escrow accounts, channel commissions (Airbnb, VRBO, Direct), and merchant processors against PMS data.
PMS & GL Integration: Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve complex discrepancies in booking, occupancy, tourist tax, and revenue data flowing from PMS platforms into the general ledger.
Review & Quality Control: Review, audit, and mentor junior accountants/bookkeepers on the account, serving as the first point of escalation for accounting judgment calls.
