Requirements

• Hands-on experience with Yardi, Entrata, or similar property management software.
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
• Advanced Excel and familiarity with ERP systems (QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, or similar).
• English: Advanced / professional level (daily communication with U.S. teams).

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in Senior Living, Healthcare, or Assisted Living industries.
• Experience preparing journal entries for high-volume, multi-site portfolios.
• Previous participation in process improvement or automation initiatives.
• Leadership experience or ability to train junior staff.
