LHH is partnering directly with the CFO of a rapidly expanding commercial real estate organization to hire a Senior Financial Reporting Analyst who will own property-level and portfolio-level expense analysis across a large, multi-building CRE portfolio.

About the Organization -

• One of the largest commercial real estate owners in the region
• Portfolio includes hundreds of properties and millions of square feet
• Double-digit growth for 10 years
• Fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and highly process-driven environment

About the Role -

• Lead monthly property & portfolio expense analysis
• Build and refine variance reports (budget, PY, benchmarks such as $/SF)
• Identify cost drivers, overspend, and operational gaps
• Partner with Operations & Property Management to drive action and accountability
• Develop standardized reporting tools/models (Excel-heavy)
• Conduct tenant financial reviews (P&L, balance sheet, limited tax returns)
• Support budgeting & forecasting at both property and corporate levels
• Drive process improvements, efficiencies, and reporting enhancements

This is a high-visibility, high-impact role and not a traditional back-office accounting function.
