This is a senior, hands-on accounting role responsible for ensuring accuracy across job cost, accounts payable, payroll, and billing for active construction projects. Unlike a traditional Project Accountant role, this position focuses on cross-functional accounting operations, controls, and system accuracy, serving as a key partner to Operations, Payroll, and the broader Accounting team. This role does not have direct reports but carries significant ownership and visibility, particularly as we continue to enhance processes and transition from Sage 300 to Acumatica.
