If you thrive in a multi-company environment and excel at solving problems, maintaining accuracy, and juggling multiple responsibilities, this position could be a perfect fit for you!

Key Responsibilities:

In this dynamic role, you will be responsible for:

• Managing the entire Accounts Payable cycle, including proper coding, reconciling discrepancies, and entry/uploading into Spectrum software.

• Facilitating payments to consultants, subcontractors, vendors, and suppliers while maintaining a virtual AP filing system.

• Investigating and resolving issues related to processing invoices and purchase orders.

• Managing lien waiver disbursement and collection to ensure compliance.

• Overseeing Accounts Receivable processes and collaborating with Construction Project Managers from start to finish to ensure accurate and timely receivables and payables.

• Leading monthly, quarterly, and year-end close activities.

• Verifying vendor accounts by reconciling monthly statements and associated transactions.

• Applying required construction accounting standards and procedures to accurately record and report on construction activity.

About You:

We’re looking for a driven and proactive individual with the following qualities:

• Work Ethic: A proactive team player who is eager to take on tasks at all levels — you’re not above rolling up your sleeves to handle everything from AP (100-150 invoices/week) to reconciliations, AR, and beyond.

• Detail-Oriented Problem Solver: You value the process of balancing accounts and tracking down discrepancies until resolution.

• Exceptional Organizational Skills: You excel at managing multiple responsibilities and keeping everything on track.

• Collaboration Focused: You communicate effectively with all stakeholders, including Project Managers and vendors.

• A desire to learn and grow within the construction accounting field and help refine processes along the way.

Why This Role?

• Be part of a growing, dynamic company in the thriving construction industry.

• Gain invaluable experience working alongside other construction professionals in a collaborative environment.

• Opportunity to handle a comprehensive range of accounting responsibilities, making an impactful difference in the financial health of the organization.

If you’re detail-driven, love problem-solving, and want to grow your career in construction accounting, apply today to take the next step in your professional journey.

Requirements

• Experience working in a multi-company environment, with previous construction accounting experience highly preferred.

• Advanced knowledge of accounts payable, accounts receivable, and reconciliations.

• Strong understanding of current construction accounting standards and compliance requirements.

• Experience with the general ledger, journal entries, and all aspects of full-cycle accounting.
