Accounting managers are experts in their field, and they work with other departments to ensure the company's financial matters are in order. They prepare financial reports, forecast financial needs of the company, prepare documentation for tax purposes, and manage account files.

Job description

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!
