Construction Accountant

CFS
Houston, TX Full Time
POSTED ON 6/17/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/15/2026
If you’re a construction accountant seeking deeper exposure, ownership, and a clear path to leadership, this role offers hands-on involvement in in-house GC projects and real visibility with management.

Construction Accountant

Salary: 75,000 to 90,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Direct involvement with in-house GC construction projects — not just transactional accounting
  • Clear growth path with cross-training and progression toward backup Accounting Manager responsibilities
  • High visibility with leadership through monthly financials and reporting
  • Exposure to the full construction accounting lifecycle: draws, job costing, GL, and compliance
  • Stable, well-structured environment with established processes and expectations
  • Opportunity to strengthen systems experience (ERP, Procore, Textura)
  • Collaborative team environment with strong ownership and accountability culture

Key Responsibilities For The Construction Accountant

  • Prepare and support monthly construction bank draws and job cost reporting
  • Perform GL accounting, reconciliations, and intercompany transactions
  • Assist with monthly financial reporting packages for management
  • Process subcontractor billings, vendor invoices, and overhead costs
  • Support subcontract administration, lien waivers, retainage, and compliance tracking

Qualifications For The Construction Accountant

  • Bachelor’s degree in accounting
  • 2 years of construction accounting experience
  • Strong job cost accounting and GL experience
  • Proficiency with Microsoft products; ERP experience required (Procore/Textura a plus)
