What is a Remote Construction Accountant?

A Remote Construction Accountant is a financial professional who manages accounting tasks for construction projects while working from a location outside of the traditional office, often from home. Their responsibilities typically include budgeting, cost tracking, payroll, billing, and financial reporting specific to construction projects. They use specialized accounting software to track project expenses, ensure compliance with industry regulations, and support project managers in maintaining profitability. Remote Construction Accountants collaborate virtually with contractors, project managers, and other stakeholders to keep financial records accurate and up to date. This role allows for flexibility while still providing essential financial oversight for construction businesses.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Construction Accountant, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Construction Accountant, you need a solid background in accounting, understanding of construction industry practices, and a relevant degree or certification such as CPA. Proficiency in construction accounting software like Sage 300, Viewpoint, or QuickBooks, as well as experience with project management systems, is typically required. Strong attention to detail, communication skills, and the ability to work independently are essential soft skills in this remote role. These skills ensure accurate financial management, effective remote collaboration, and compliance with industry-specific regulations.

What is the difference between Remote Construction Accountant vs Remote Project Accountant?

AspectRemote Construction AccountantRemote Project Accountant
CredentialsCPA or equivalent, accounting degreeCPA or equivalent, accounting degree
Work EnvironmentConstruction firms, contractors, or construction-related companiesVarious industries, including construction, engineering, or project-based firms
Employer UsageConstruction companies managing multiple projectsOrganizations with diverse projects across industries
Search IntentComparison for construction-specific accounting rolesBroader project-based accounting roles

The Remote Construction Accountant primarily focuses on financial management within the construction industry, handling job costs, project budgets, and construction-specific accounting practices. In contrast, the Remote Project Accountant may work across various industries, managing financials for different types of projects. While both roles require similar credentials and skills, the construction accountant specializes in construction project nuances, making it more industry-specific.

How do Remote Construction Accountants typically collaborate with project managers and on-site teams?

Remote Construction Accountants frequently interact with project managers and on-site teams through digital communication tools such as email, video calls, and project management software. They are responsible for tracking project costs, processing invoices, and ensuring budget compliance, often requiring regular updates from field staff. Building strong relationships and maintaining clear lines of communication are essential to address discrepancies promptly and keep financial records accurate. While remote, accountants must be proactive in scheduling check-ins and clarifying project documentation to support smooth operations and financial transparency.

Remote | Construction Accounting | Sage 100 Contractor | Client-Facing
You know construction accounting. You take pride in getting the details right. And you enjoy helping clients keep things accurate, organized, and moving forward.
This Construction Client Accountant role supports multiple construction clients’ day-to-day operations, including payroll, reconciliations, billing, audit support, and construction accounting work within Sage 100 Contractor.
This is a full-time W-2 role and not a software implementation, ERP consulting, or configuration position.
Important — Please Read Before ApplyingSage 100 Contractor experience is strongly preferred, and candidates with recent, hands-on Sage 100 Contractor experience will be prioritized.Candidates with strong construction accounting experience in comparable systems (Spectrum, Viewpoint Vista, Foundation, Dynamics, etc.) may also be considered if they demonstrate strong payroll, job costing, WIP, and construction accounting depth.
What You’ll DoAs a Construction Client Accountant, you will:
  • Manage day-to-day accounting functions for a portfolio of construction clients
  • Personally process payroll, including payroll taxes and filings
  • Perform bank reconciliations, sales tax filings, month-end close, billing support, and routine audit/year-end support
  • Support job costing, WIP, progress billing, AP/AR, and related construction accounting needs
  • Support clients with ongoing accounting needs and day-to-day Sage 100 Contractor accounting workflows
  • Maintain accurate records and a clean audit trail across all client work
  • Identify and resolve issues independently when possible
  • Communicate clearly with clients and follow through on commitments
What This Role Looks Like
This role is:
  • Hands-on construction accounting and payroll work
  • Managing a portfolio of clients
  • Working independently with a high level of ownership
  • Supporting real, day-to-day client accounting needs
Building trusted relationships with recurring clients
This role is not:
  • ERP implementation or software consulting
  • High-level accounting strategy or oversight-only work
  • Report writing or data analytics
​​​​​​​What You Bring
  • ​​​​​​​Strong construction accounting experience
  • Sage 100 Contractor experience strongly preferred
  • Hands-on payroll experience, including payroll taxes and filings
  • Strong knowledge of job costing, WIP, progress billing, AP/AR, and month-end close
  • Hands-on accounting experience with direct responsibility for completing the work, not solely reviewing or overseeing others
  • Ability to manage multiple clients and priorities independently
  • Strong organization, accuracy, and follow-through
  • Comfort working in a high-autonomy environment 
  • ​​​​​​​Ability to step into an existing client environment and contribute with minimal ramp-up
What Makes You Stand Out
  • Experience working across multiple construction companies or clients
  • Sage 100 Contractor experience
  • Union payroll experience
  • Experience supporting audits or year-end accounting needs
  • Ability to explain accounting concepts clearly to non-accountants
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, client-driven environment
What Success Looks Like
  • Clients trust your accuracy and responsiveness
  • Deadlines are consistently met across your client portfolio
  • Books are clean, reconciled, and audit-ready
  • Payroll and filings are accurate and on time
  • Clients rely on you as their go-to for day-to-day accounting support
​​​​​​​How We Work
  • High autonomy: you manage your own schedule and priorities
  • Strong support: leadership, IT, and business applications teams are available when needed
  • No ego, no drama: we show up, do the work, and support each other
  • Teaching mindset: we help clients improve, not just complete tasks
Compensation & Details
  • U.S. work authorization required. No sponsorship available
  • Salary: Commensurate with experience
  • Fully remote
  • Flexible schedule with accountability to deadlines
  • Clients across multiple time zones
Benefits
  • 100% employer-paid medical insurance for employees
  • SIMPLE IRA with 3% company match
  • Paid time off, with increased flexibility over time
  • Fully remote work environment
  • Supportive, team-oriented culture with strong internal resources
