What are the responsibilities and job description for the Controller position at Creative Financial Staffing (CFS)?
Title
Controller
Salary
$120,000 – $130,000 Up to 20% Bonus
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Looking to make a meaningful impact in a leadership role that values both your expertise and your work-life balance? This is your chance to join a long-standing, family-owned construction company in Pittsburgh with a reputation for treating employees like part of the family — and backing it up with exceptional benefits. The company covers 100% of employee health insurance and 70% of family coverage.
After a 90-day, in-person onboarding period, you'll transition to a hybrid work model with the flexibility and autonomy to thrive. In this hands-on Controller role, you'll lead a small, dedicated team and play a critical role in the financial success of multiple projects.
They’re not just looking for a number-cruncher. They want someone who understands the nuances of construction accounting — from job costing and WIP schedules to managing day-to-day AP, AR, and payroll operations.
