Accounting Assistant

Anderson Environmental Contracting (AEC) is a growing environmental construction company delivering complex, high-stakes projects across remediation, fuel systems, and infrastructure work.

We are looking for an Accounting Assistant who wants more than a transactional role - someone who can take ownership of the payables process, support job cost accuracy, and operate effectively in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.

This is a role for someone who:

• Thrives in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment


• Takes pride in accuracy and organization


• Can manage multiple priorities without losing attention to detail


• Wants to grow with a company that is scaling quickly

Core Responsibilities

Accounts Payable & Job Cost Support

• Process high-volume accounts payable with a focus on accuracy and timeliness


• Maintain and manage vendor records and compliance documentation


• Code invoices to the correct jobs and cost categories within the job cost system


• Input invoices and credit card activity into accounting systems


• Prepare and execute weekly check runs (physical and electronic payments)


• Support sales, use, and B&O tax reconciliations and filings


• Manage vehicle registrations

Office & Administrative Support

• Serve as a first point of contact for visitors, deliveries, and incoming calls


• Manage incoming and outgoing mail


• Maintain organized filing systems (physical and digital)


• Support general office operations, supplies, and coordination needs

Qualifications

• 1–2+ years of accounts payable experience, preferably in construction or a high-volume environment


• Experience processing large check runs (50+ vendors per cycle)


• Strong attention to detail with the ability to work efficiently under pressure


• Proficiency in Microsoft 365, with a strong working knowledge of Excel


• Experience with Adobe Acrobat for document processing and management


• Ability to manage multiple tasks concurrently without sacrificing accuracy


• Resourceful problem-solver with a proactive mindset


• Experience with ComputerEase or similar job cost accounting software is preferred

What We’re Looking For

This is not a “sit and wait for direction” role. We are looking for someone who can step in, take ownership of the process, identify gaps, and keep things moving. If you’re someone who can run with it, bring structure to a busy environment, and contribute to a growing company - this is the opportunity.

$20-$28/hour, full time

We offer a competitive compensation package including medical, dental, vision, FSA, paid time off, and a 401(k)-program following a qualifying period.
