Accounting Manager — Path to Controller

About Lucid Private Offices

Lucid Private Offices is the upscale alternative to casual coworking spaces and outdated executive suites. We offer private offices, team suites, meeting rooms, and virtual office memberships designed for driven professionals who don't settle for mediocrity.

About the Role

We're looking for an Accounting Manager to help mature our accounting function as we scale — both hands-on and forward-looking. You'll own full-cycle monthly close and account reconciliations directly, while also building the processes, controls, and documentation the function doesn't yet have. This is a growth seat for someone who wants to develop into a future Controller role as the function matures.

What You'll Own

• Full-cycle monthly close, including preparation and posting of journal entries

• Account reconciliations across the portfolio (bank, facilities, and other balance sheet accounts)

• Design and implement accounting controls, policies, and standardized processes where none currently exist

• Drive automation and process improvement within the current systems and close cycle

• Serve as primary implementer on an upcoming accounting systems transformation — data migration, testing, and cutover support (system selection and roadmap led by the CFO)

• Improve documentation and data management practices across the accounting function

• Liaise with CPAs and outside partners as needed

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field required

• Has participated in multiple full-cycle month-end closes and owned account reconciliations directly (years of experience flexible depending on overall strength of background)

• Demonstrated interest or experience in building/improving accounting processes, controls, or documentation — not just executing existing ones

• Ability to see things through to completion, working independently while also operating as part of a team

• Strong communicator who can manage multiple priorities and work cross-functionally with leadership

• Interest in growing into a Controller-level role as the function matures

Nice to Have

• CPA license or actively pursuing CPA (CPA-track)

• Familiarity with ASC 606 (revenue recognition) and ASC 842 (lease accounting) — particularly valuable given our current GAAP transition project

• Experience bringing structure to a chaotic or under-built accounting environment

• Experience with sales tax compliance across multiple states

• Real estate, coworking, hospitality, or property management industry background
