Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


Join a well-established construction and specialty contracting company known for tackling complex projects across the country — backed by a larger family of operations, so you get the resources of a bigger organization without losing the hands-on, close-knit feel of a smaller team.

  • Create and manage project-related purchase orders, and prepare/review customer billings in line with contract terms

  • Support accounts receivable and collections efforts as needed


Qualifications for the Project Accountant:



  • 2+ years of project accounting experience, ideally within construction

  • Familiarity with ASC 606 revenue recognition, including multi-price contracts.
