Finance Coordinator

About the role

Howard Financial is looking for a Finance Coordinator – Accounts Payable to support one of our vacation rental clients. This role owns high-volume, day-to-day AP execution — including owner statement processing and a steady stream of vendor and owner-related account inquiries — within Guesty and Ramp. It's built for someone who handles repetitive work efficiently and with a positive attitude, and who can resolve issues independently rather than escalating routine items.

This role is being created to absorb the owner statement and high-volume inquiry workload currently handled at a senior level, freeing up Senior Accountants to focus on higher-complexity, detail-intensive tasks.

What you'll do

• Owner statements: Own the preparation and processing of owner statements each cycle, ensuring accuracy and timeliness so senior team members can focus elsewhere.
• Accounts Payable: Process vendor bills, coordinate payments, and reconcile AP transactions using Ramp.
• Account inquiries: Handle a high volume of repetitive, transactional owner and vendor inquiries (payment status, statement questions, invoice discrepancies) with a positive, solutions-oriented attitude.
• Guesty proficiency: Use Guesty daily as the core property management system for reservation, owner, and financial data — this is the top priority skill for the role.
• Independent troubleshooting: Research and resolve discrepancies or account questions independently, escalating only when genuinely necessary.
• Cross-functional coordination: Work closely with the Senior Accountant(s) and property management team to ensure smooth month-end and statement cycles.

What we're looking for

• Proven experience with Guesty (required) — this is the priority skill; the team can train quickly on Ramp.

• Familiarity with or willingness to quickly learn Ramp for AP processing.

• Prior experience in an accounts payable or finance support role within vacation rental or short-term rental property management.
• Strong accounts payable fundamentals (invoice processing, vendor management, reconciliations).
• Comfort handling a high volume of repetitive, transactional requests without losing accuracy or attitude.
• High autonomy and resourcefulness — able to find answers independently rather than relying on frequent manager check-ins.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, with a consistently positive, professional tone.
• Comfort working across time zones with a distributed, remote team.

• English fluency required; Spanish a plus.

Nice to have

• Experience with owner statement preparation specifically within vacation rental/property management.
• Background working with an outsourced accounting or finance services firm.

• Exposure to other PMS platforms (Guesty).

Success looks like

• Owner statements are consistently accurate and delivered on schedule without senior intervention.

• Account inquiry volume is handled promptly with minimal escalation.

• The Senior Accountant(s) on the account report a measurable reduction in time spent on repetitive requests.
