About the job
Staff Accountant
Salary: $70,000-$90,000
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
Our client is a well-established, family-owned construction organization with years of success, a strong reputation in Wisconsin, and a commitment to building lasting relationships with its customers and employees.
The Staff Accountant will join a collaborative team where leadership values its people, encourages professional development, and creates an environment where employees feel appreciated and supported.
This is an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the construction industry, work with a variety of accounting functions, and build a strong foundation for long-term career growth.
The benefits package goes beyond the basics, offering health and dental coverage, a 401(k) with potential profit-sharing contributions, paid time off, paid holidays, potential annual bonuses, and ongoing opportunity for internal promotion.
The culture is a major differentiator! Employees enjoy team outings, summer picnics, Brewers games, volunteer opportunities, free snacks and beverages, and even an on-site workout facility and chiropractor. Our client has also been recognized as a Top Workplace year after year.
Key Responsibilities:
Support month-end close activities, including journal entries, account reconciliations, and general ledger maintenance.
Assist with financial reporting, expense tracking, and the preparation of accurate financial statements.
Reconcile bank accounts, credit cards, and balance sheet accounts while researching and resolving discrepancies.
Help maintain accurate financial records related to construction projects, including job costs, expenses, and project-related transactions.
Qualifications:
Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, or equivalent relevant accounting experience.
3+ years experience with general accounting, reconciliations, journal entries, or month-end close, ideally in construction.
A proactive, team-oriented professional who enjoys problem-solving, learning new systems, and growing within a collaborative environment.
