Job Description

About the Company

Our client is a privately held commercial GC/developer with a 30-year track record of high-profile mixed-use, multifamily, and light-industrial projects across the Southeast. Annual revenues exceed $300 M and the finance team is expanding to support a growing project pipeline.

Why This Role Rocks

  • Own the numbers for $50-100 M in active projects—be the go-to accounting expert for project managers and executives.

  • Mentorship & growth: You’ll supervise a junior accountant today and step into an Accounting Manager track within 18–24 months.

  • Impact: Shape job-cost controls, WIP reporting, and cash-flow forecasting as the company scales to $500 M+.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead full-cycle job cost accounting : budgets, commitments, change orders, and cost-to-complete analyses.

  • Prepare monthly WIP schedules & percentage-of-completion revenue recognition in accordance with US GAAP.

  • Manage project billings, subcontractor pay apps, and retention ; resolve discrepancies with PMs & vendors.

  • Drive month-end close for construction entities—journal entries, accruals, balance-sheet recs, and variance analysis.

  • Compile consolidated financial statements and KPI dashboards for senior leadership & lending partners.

  • Ensure sales/use tax and lien waiver compliance across multi-state projects.

  • Partner with operations to implement process improvements (e.g., Procore, Sage 300, or Viewpoint upgrades).

  • Support the annual audit and CPA review ; liaise with external auditors and tax advisors.

Requirements

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s in Accounting or Finance (CPA or progress toward CPA/CMA highly preferred).

  • 5+ years of construction accounting with heavy job-cost/WIP exposure in a GC, developer, or large subcontractor.

  • Advanced proficiency in construction ERPs (Sage 300 CRE, Viewpoint/Vista, Foundation, or similar).

  • Solid grasp of percentage-of-completion, GAAP, and revenue-recognition standards (ASC 606).

  • Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups) and comfort wrangling large data sets.

  • Proven ability to communicate with project teams and meet demanding deadlines.

Benefits

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base salary: $95 K – $120 K DOE + annual bonus

  • 401(k) with match | Medical, dental, vision | Generous PTO & paid holidays

  • Flexible hybrid schedule (3 days in-office) | Professional development stipend
