Contract Construction Billing Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Lead the Billing Function Behind Every Job We Build.

If you know your way around an AIA pay application and you like being the person who makes sure the money comes in clean and on time, this is your seat. FSS Technologies is growing fast, and construction billing is where our cash flow lives or dies. As Construction Billing Supervisor, you own the full AIA billing cycle — schedules of values, progress billings, change orders, retainage, lien waivers, and closeout — and you lead the three people who keep job setup and customer accounts accurate behind it. You will have real authority over how the work gets done, direct access to project managers and operations leadership, and the chance to build a billing process that scales with a company that keeps adding branches. Bring your construction billing experience, your eye for detail, and your willingness to coach a team, and we will give you the room to run it.

About FSS Technologies

At FSS Technologies, protecting lives and property is at the core of everything we do. We provide industry-leading life safety and electronic security solutions that help businesses safeguard their people and assets. Guided by our values of excellence, integrity, and accountability, we are building a dynamic and supportive environment where our team can grow and succeed.

Position Overview

The Construction Billing Supervisor is a working supervisor responsible for all construction and contract billing at FSS Technologies, with primary ownership of AIA billing documentation from contract award through final release of retainage. This position directly supervises a team of three, consisting of Customer Management Team (CMT) Associates and Job Entry Associates, and is accountable for the accuracy, timeliness, and compliance of every pay application, lien waiver, and job record the team produces.

This is a hands-on leadership role. The Supervisor prepares and reviews the most complex billings personally, sets the standards and deadlines the team works to, and is the escalation point for general contractors, project managers, and internal partners when a billing issue needs to be resolved. Success in this role is measured by billings going out complete and on schedule, payments arriving without avoidable delay, and a team that is trained, consistent, and accountable.
