Construction Accounting Manager

Construction Accounting Manager

Build Something. Own It. Make an Impact.

Are you the type of accounting professional who thrives in a growing business where your ideas matter, your voice is heard, and no two days look the same?

We're partnering with a privately held construction company that is investing heavily in its future and looking for an experienced Accounting Manager to take ownership of the accounting function. This isn't a role where you'll inherit a large team or hide behind layers of management—it's an opportunity for someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, creating structure, improving processes, and becoming a key business partner to leadership.

If you're entrepreneurial, resourceful, and love wearing multiple hats, we'd love to talk.

What You'll Do

• Own the day-to-day accounting function from start to finish
• Manage month-end close, financial reporting, reconciliations, general ledger, AP/AR oversight, and cash flow
• Lead all construction accounting activities including:
• Job Costing
• Work-in-Progress (WIP) Reporting
• AIA Billing
• Revenue Recognition
• Project Financial Reporting
• Partner closely with operations and project teams to ensure project profitability
• Develop better processes, reporting, and internal controls as the company continues to scale
• Collaborate with external CPA partners on tax and year-end activities
• Help build the accounting infrastructure for the next stage of company growth

What We're Looking For

• 3 years of construction accounting experience
• Strong understanding of:
• Job Costing
• WIP Reporting
• AIA Billing
• Percentage of Completion Accounting
• Experience using QuickBooks (Enterprise preferred)
• Comfortable being a one-person accounting department
• Proven ability to build processes, improve workflows, and create structure
• Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail
• Someone who enjoys solving problems instead of waiting for direction
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to work across all levels of the business

The Right Person Is...

• Scrappy and resourceful
• Self-motivated and accountable
• Comfortable working independently
• Hands-on and willing to jump into whatever needs to get done
• Process-minded but practical
• Excited by growth and helping build something bigger

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

• Salary: $100,000–$120,000
• Performance Bonus
• Excellent health benefits
• 401(k) with company match
• Opportunity to build an accounting department—not just maintain one
• Direct exposure to executive leadership
• Fast-paced environment where your work has visible impact
• Long-term growth as the company continues to expand

If you're looking for another corporate accounting role with layers of bureaucracy, this probably isn't it. If you're looking for a place where you can take ownership, create structure, influence the business, and grow alongside an ambitious leadership team, please apply!
