Accountant

The Staff Accountant is CBD's on-site finance resource responsible for building and operating the Crown Bay SPV's financial infrastructure in NetSuite and for the entity's day-to-day accounting cycle. Reporting to the CBD Director of Finance, this role designs and maintains billing logic, coordinates the monthly close with CTI Shared Services, issues customer billing and manages accounts receivable, and prepares accruals and month-end reporting. The role also stands up the internal controls, governance processes, and documentation appropriate for a newly operational asset, working within the review and approval framework set by the Director of Finance.

Key Responsibilities

? NetSuite implementation and administration: support the implementation and ongoing operation of NetSuite for the Crown Bay SPV, billing logic configuration, and financial reporting structures, in coordination with CTI IT/Systems.

? Billing logic and reporting structures: configure and maintain NetSuite billing logic (rent schedules, recurring charges, escalations, other billable items) and reporting structures (classes, departments, segments) to support accurate invoicing and management reporting.

? Monthly close coordination: coordinate the monthly close calendar and deliverables with CTI Shared Services, ensuring account reconciliations, journal entries, and supporting schedules are completed accurately and on the agreed timeline, and consistent with CTI close standards.

? Month-end reporting: prepare month-end reporting packages (P&L and balance sheet detail, variance narrative, KPI and operating metric summaries) for Director of Finance review ahead of CTI's group reporting deadlines.

? Customer billing: issue monthly customer billing (rent, CAM, and other recurring or ad hoc charges) via NetSuite, ensuring invoices are accurate, timely, and properly supported by underlying lease or contract terms.

? Accounts receivable follow-up: monitor the AR aging report and manage day-to-day collections follow-up, including reminders, payment tracking, and escalation of delinquent accounts per the escalation path in Part 2, Section 6.

? Customer account reconciliation: reconcile customer accounts and payment applications, researching and resolving discrepancies directly with customers and in coordination with CTI Shared Services as needed.
