They help organizations plan, execute, and oversee projects efficiently without the long-term commitment of a full-time hire. This role is ideal for businesses that need expert project management but may not have the workload or budget for a dedicated full-time position. Fractional Project Managers often work across multiple clients and industries, bringing diverse experience and best practices to each project.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the fractional project manager position, and why are they important?

A Fractional Project Manager thrives with expertise in project management methodologies, strong organizational skills, and experience handling multiple projects for different clients or teams. Familiarity with project management software (such as Asana, Trello, or MS Project), as well as certifications like PMP or Agile/Scrum, is highly advantageous. Exceptional communication, time management, and adaptability are distinguishing soft skills in this role. These abilities are vital for efficiently managing diverse client needs, delivering projects on time, and building strong stakeholder relationships in a part-time or contract-based setting.

Position Summary

A growing steel fabrication company in the construction industry based in Nashville, TN is seeking a Financial Accounting Manager to join their team. Reporting to the Owner and Fractional CFO, this role is built for a construction finance professional who thrives on analyzing the numbers and translating them into smart, actionable decisions for the business. Day-to-day accounting is currently supported through AI-driven processes, and you'll be trained to eventually take ownership of that function as your role grows. Right now, the focus is on you becoming the financial backbone of the operation, working closely with project managers and operations to track costs, analyze margins, and help drive smart decisions. The goal of this role is to grow into the Controller of the company.

Responsibilities

  • Perform job costing and project margin analysis, connecting estimating-to-actual data back to project managers and operations teams
  • Track and analyze labor and equipment costs, identifying and clearly communicating variances
  • Build and maintain 6090 day cash flow forecasts to support operational planning
  • Produce financial reporting that field and project leaders can actually use, going beyond back-office outputs to tell the story behind the numbers
  • Partner cross-functionally with operations and project management as a trusted business partner
  • Support continuous improvement of financial controls, processes, and reporting
  • Learn and eventually take ownership of day-to-day accounting operations, including AP/AR, month-end close, general ledger, compliance, and payroll coordination, currently supported through AI-driven tools, with hands-on training provided
  • Grow into managing WIP and POC accounting, including related journal entries and schedules, as part of your development toward the Controller role
  • Eventually manage the annual audit process and serve as primary liaison to the external CPA firm as you take on more accounting ownership

Required Qualifications

  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret financial data and communicate it clearly to non-finance stakeholders
  • Construction industry background, with an understanding of WIP and percentage-of-completion concepts a plus
  • High proficiency in Excel
  • Business-partnering mindset with a desire to be useful to operations, not just accurate in a back office
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally with project managers and field teams
  • Detail-oriented, adaptable, and comfortable moving quickly in a growing environment
  • Willingness to learn and grow into full accounting ownership over time, with training provided
  • Growth mindset with ambition

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with Sage Intacct, Procore, Viewpoint, or similar construction accounting platforms
  • Experience with budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis
  • Familiarity with AIA billing and subcontractor management
  • Power BI or other data visualization experience a plus
  • Comfort working alongside AI-driven accounting tools and processes
