Construction Accounting Manager

Construction Accounting Manager

Build Something. Own It. Make an Impact.

Are you the type of accounting professional who thrives in a growing business where your ideas matter, your voice is heard, and no two days look the same?

We're partnering with a privately held construction company that is investing heavily in its future and looking for an experienced Accounting Manager to take ownership of the accounting function. This isn't a role where you'll inherit a large team or hide behind layers of management—it's an opportunity for someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, creating structure, improving processes, and becoming a key business partner to leadership.

If you're entrepreneurial, resourceful, and love wearing multiple hats, we'd love to talk.

What You'll Do

• Own the day-to-day accounting function from start to finish


• Manage month-end close, financial reporting, reconciliations, general ledger, AP/AR oversight, and cash flow


• Lead all construction accounting activities including:


• Job Costing


• Work-in-Progress (WIP) Reporting


• AIA Billing


• Revenue Recognition


• Project Financial Reporting


• Partner closely with operations and project teams to ensure project profitability


• Develop better processes, reporting, and internal controls as the company continues to scale


• Collaborate with external CPA partners on tax and year-end activities


• Help build the accounting infrastructure for the next stage of company growth

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of construction accounting experience


• Strong understanding of:


• Job Costing


• WIP Reporting


• AIA Billing


• Percentage of Completion Accounting


• Experience using QuickBooks (Enterprise preferred)


• Comfortable being a one-person accounting department


• Proven ability to build processes, improve workflows, and create structure


• Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail


• Someone who enjoys solving problems instead of waiting for direction


• Excellent communication skills with the ability to work across all levels of the business

The Right Person Is...

• Scrappy and resourceful


• Self-motivated and accountable


• Comfortable working independently


• Hands-on and willing to jump into whatever needs to get done


• Process-minded but practical


• Excited by growth and helping build something bigger

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

• Salary: $100,000–$120,000


• Performance Bonus


• Excellent health benefits


• 401(k) with company match


• Opportunity to build an accounting department—not just maintain one


• Direct exposure to executive leadership


• Fast-paced environment where your work has visible impact


• Long-term growth as the company continues to expand

If you're looking for another corporate accounting role with layers of bureaucracy, this probably isn't it. If you're looking for a place where you can take ownership, create structure, influence the business, and grow alongside an ambitious leadership team, please apply!
