Construction Accountant

If you’re a construction accountant who wants real ownership of projects (not just a seat behind the numbers) this role puts you at the center of high-profile builds with a top-tier national contractor and a clear path to advancement!

WHY THIS OPPORTUNITY STANDS OUT

• Competitive base salary with a company-wide annual bonus, consistently paid year over year
• Direct financial ownership of multiple active construction projects with visibility to senior leadership
• Clear, merit-based promotion pathways—recent examples from staff to management
• Exposure to modern accounting tools, including AI-enabled process automation
• Strong, collaborative accounting team with exceptionally low turnover
• Stable backlog and reputation as one of the nation’s leading builders
• Full benefits package: medical, dental, vision, PTO, and career development support
• On-site team environment that values partnership with operations and project management

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

• Serve as the project-level financial owner, overseeing accounting for multiple concurrent jobs
• Manage the full AIA billing cycle, including pay applications, WIP, and cost controls
• Review and administer GMP and lump-sum contracts, ensuring billing accuracy and compliance
• Partner closely with project managers, operations, and trade partners to resolve issues proactively
• Deliver clear reporting and insights across job cost, AR, AP, and overall project performance

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED

• Hands-on construction project accounting experience, supporting multiple active jobs simultaneously
• Advanced expertise in AIA billings, including pay applications, WIP, cost tracking, and contract compliance
• Strong foundation in project accounting within a commercial construction environment (GMP and lump-sum preferred)
• Experience working with construction and ERP systems such as Textura (highly preferred), Oracle, and/or SAP
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance (or actively pursuing with a clear path to completion)
