The Opportunity
Howard Hughes Holdings owns, manages, and develops award-winning master planned communities, as well as operating properties and development opportunities including: The Seaport in New York; Downtown Columbia®, Maryland; The Woodlands®, The Woodlands Hills®, and Bridgeland® in the Greater Houston, Texas area; Summerlin®, Las Vegas; Douglas Ranch®, Phoenix and Ward Village® in Honolulu, Hawaii.
As we continue our commitment in creating innovative placemaking we have formed Seaport Entertainment. Seaport Entertainment, a newly formed division comprising the company's entertainment-related assets in New York and Las Vegas—including the Seaport in Lower Manhattan and the Las Vegas Aviators® Triple-A Minor League Baseball team, as well as the company's ownership stake in Jean-Georges Restaurants and its 80% interest in the air rights above the Fashion Show Mall, which are intended to be used to create a new casino on the Las Vegas Strip.
Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. is establishing Seaport Entertainment with the intention of completing its spinoff as a publicly traded company by year-end 2024. The planned separation of Seaport Entertainment from Howard Hughes would allow the new company to operate independently as a pure-play entertainment enterprise, equipped with a robust team of industry leaders to ensure its long-term success.
The Role
Seaport Entertainment is looking for a Chief Accounting Officer to be a key executive of financial operations for our rapidly growing company. Partnering directly with the CFO, the Chief Accounting Officer will be responsible for providing executive level technical accounting expertise, oversight and execution of SEC filings and obligations, ownership and improvement of financial processes, and the development of a high performing accounting team. The CAO must be a hands-on, roll up your sleeves type of leader and should enjoy a fast-paced environment.
She/he will lead efforts to develop accounting and finance workflows which include financial reporting, general accounting including month-end close related activities, treasury operations, revenue operations (including revenue recognition), AR/AP, procurement, G&A operations, corporate expense management, public company reporting, and stock plan administration.
