Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Be part of a collaborative, fully onsite team environment where your contributions are highly visible • Opportunity to expand your knowledge of progress billing, change orders, and project controls • Work on diverse construction projects and see the direct impact of your work on project success • Enjoy a role with strong cross-functional interaction and operational involvement beyond traditional accounting • Great Benefits
Key Responsibilities for the Project Accountant:
• Track labor, equipment, material, subcontractor, and overhead costs against project budgets • Prepare progress billings, owner pay applications, and support change order tracking • Process subcontractor and vendor invoices while ensuring compliance documentation is complete • Assist with Work-in-Progress (WIP) reporting, forecasting, and project profitability analysis • Support month-end close activities, account reconciliations, and project financial reporting • Collaborate with Project Managers to monitor budgets, costs, and financial performance throughout project lifecycles
Qualifications for the Project Accountant:
• 3+ years of accounting experience within the construction industry • Experience with job costing, project accounting, or construction financial reporting • Knowledge of progress billing, WIP schedules, and project cost tracking • Strong Excel skills and experience working with accounting or ERP systems
