Original job description

Controller, Development

Location: Dallas, Texas

Department: Accounting

Reports To: SVP, Controller

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Gillon Property Group is a Dallas-based commercial real estate investor, developer, and operator with a distinguished track record of identifying and creating value in premier mixed-use, retail and other commercial assets across diversified asset types. We are a vertically integrated, entrepreneurial organization committed to excellence, integrity, and long-term partnerships. GPG is dedicated to driving long-term value by creating extraordinary places that enhance people’s lives.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Controller, Development is a senior leader within the accounting organization, accountable for the integrity of accounting, financial reporting, and internal control across the full real estate development lifecycle - from pre-development and entitlement through construction, lease-up, stabilization, and transition to long-term operations. This role owns project-level and entity-level accounting for the firm’s development pipeline, including ground-up and redevelopment projects, the joint ventures and capital structures that fund them, and the operating assets they become.

The ideal candidate is a true real estate development Controller who has lived the construction draw cycle, managed cost-to-complete and capitalization on active projects, and closed out and placed projects in service - and who also brings operating property experience (monthly close, CAM, leasing, and budgets) to ensure a seamless handoff from development to operations. The Controller partners closely with the SVP, Controller, Development, Construction, Asset Management, and Investments, and builds and develops the team that supports both sides of the platform.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Development & Construction Accounting

Own accounting for the firm’s development pipeline across the full project lifecycle: pre-development, entitlement, land acquisition, design, construction, lease-up, stabilization, and project closeout.
Establish and maintain project budgets, job cost structures, and cost codes; oversee tracking of hard costs, soft costs, contingency, and owner allowances against approved budgets.
Lead the monthly construction and development draw process, including preparation and review of lender and equity draw packages (AIA G702/G703, invoices, lien waivers, retainage, stored materials, and title date-downs).
Partner with Development and Construction on cost-to-complete, budget reallocations, change orders, contingency usage, and GMP/contract reconciliations; provide monthly project cost and cash forecasts.
Own capitalization policy and execution, including interest, real estate taxes, insurance, development fees, overhead allocation, and other carry costs; determine capitalization start and stop dates.
Manage placed-in-service, substantial completion, and asset conversion from construction-in-progress to fixed assets; coordinate cost segregation studies and depreciation set-up.
Oversee accounting for tenant improvements, landlord work, leasing commissions, and tenant allowances on new development and redevelopment projects.
Account for and track public incentives and partnerships (e.g., TIF, PID, 380/381 agreements, abatements, and reimbursements), including compliance and reporting.
Lead project closeout, including final cost reconciliations, retainage release, final lien waivers, and audit-ready project cost files.

Capital Structures, Joint Ventures & Debt

Review and approve the setup of new projects, entities, and ownership structures; ensure compliance with governing documents (PSAs, JV/partnership agreements, construction loan agreements, and guaranties).
Own partnership/JV accounting for development ventures, including capital account maintenance, equity funding sequencing, preferred returns, promote/waterfall calculations, and investor reporting.
Manage construction loan compliance and reporting, including debt covenants, in-balance tests, completion and carry guaranties, interest reserves, and conversion or refinancing to permanent debt.
Review and approve investor capital calls, equity funding requests, and distributions; oversee development fee and cost-reimbursement calculations to the GP/developer.
Lead accounting workstreams for acquisitions, dispositions, recapitalizations, financings, and restructurings.

Operating Property Accounting

Oversee the transition of completed projects into operations, including opening balance sheets, lease set-up, vendor and service contracts, operating budgets, and reporting handoff to the property accounting team.
Own the accuracy and timeliness of the monthly, quarterly, and annual close for assigned operating and development entities.
Review operating results, variance analyses, and portfolio performance reporting for ownership and executive audiences.
Oversee lease accounting and lease administration review, CAM/operating expense and tax estimates, and annual reconciliations.
Review property operating budgets, reforecasts, development pro formas, and tax projections and workpapers.

Financial Reporting, Controls & Treasury

Own timely, accurate financial reporting on the income tax basis, GAAP, or other required basis of accounting for project, entity, lender, and investor audiences.
Serve as the primary technical accounting authority for development matters (capitalized interest, consolidations, JV allocations, debt modifications, and acquisitions/dispositions); document positions in technical memos.
Establish and maintain accounting policies, procedures, and an internal control framework tailored to development and construction, including draw approvals, change-order controls, and payment authority.
Oversee cash management and project funding, wire and ACH controls, banking relationships, and liquidity planning across development and operating entities.
Coordinate internal, external, lender, and construction audits and serve as a primary point of contact.
Review and assess the accounting and financial implications of legal documents, including PSAs, construction contracts, loan agreements and guaranties, JV agreements, and leases.

Team Leadership, Mentoring & Development

Build, lead, and develop the accounting team; set clear expectations and hold regular one-on-ones, with candid feedback and well-documented performance reviews.
Mentor hands-on and cross-train team members across development and operating property accounting to build depth across the platform.
Create individual development plans; support CPA pursuit and technical training; give high-potential staff stretch assignments and exposure to senior leadership.
Own succession planning, documented procedures, recruiting, and onboarding; foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and recognition.

Cross-Functional Partnership

Serve as the accounting partner to Development, Construction, Asset Management, Leasing, Operations, and Investments; attend project meetings and provide financial insight that informs decisions.
Support investor, lender, and management reporting and communications, including development status and budget reporting.
Help modernize systems and reporting (e.g., Yardi, job cost and construction management tools) to improve accuracy, efficiency, and investor transparency.
Identify risks; design and implement risk mitigation strategies.
