As our company continues to grow, we're looking for a motivated, analytical professional to join our finance team and help improve how we manage the financial performance of our construction projects.

This is a unique opportunity to work closely with our accounting team, project managers, Chief Operating Officer, and executive leadership while helping build the financial systems that support a growing business.

Position Summary

The primary responsibilities of this position include construction job costing, project forecasting, Work-in-Progress (WIP) reporting, and project financial analysis.

This role plays a key part in preparing and maintaining accurate project financial information that supports monthly WIP reviews, management reporting, and strategic decision-making.

The successful candidate will help ensure project costs, revenue forecasts, equipment costs, and anticipated profitability are accurately reflected throughout the life of each project.

Primary Responsibilities

• Prepare and maintain the company's monthly Work-in-Progress (WIP) reports.
• Support the Chief Operating Officer during monthly WIP review meetings by preparing project financial information, updating forecasts, and documenting revisions.
• Work directly with project managers to review project budgets, actual costs, committed costs, billings, projected costs to complete, and anticipated project profitability.
• Analyze project financial performance and identify potential cost overruns, margin erosion, billing issues, and financial risks.
• Review labor, subcontractor, material, equipment, and other project costs to ensure they are properly captured and allocated.
• Assist project managers in developing accurate cost-to-complete forecasts throughout the life of each project.
• Reconcile WIP reports with job cost reports and accounting records.
• Support accurate revenue recognition, overbillings, underbillings, and month-end financial reporting.
• Track approved and pending change orders and evaluate their impact on project financial performance.
• Assist with project setup, budgets, cost code management, and project closeout.
• Support fleet and equipment cost tracking and ensure equipment ownership, maintenance, fuel, and repair costs are properly allocated to projects.
• Develop reports and dashboards that provide leadership with clear visibility into project performance.
• Recommend improvements to job costing, project reporting, and financial processes.
• Become proficient in our ERP system (ComputerEase Cloud by Deltek) and help improve the quality and consistency of project financial reporting.

• Experience with construction job costing and project financial management.
• Experience preparing or maintaining Work-in-Progress (WIP) reports is preferred.

• Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to work effectively with project managers, accounting personnel, and executive leadership.
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Construction Management, Engineering, Business, or a related field is preferred but not required for candidates with equivalent construction experience.
