Corporate Accountant

Job Title: Corporate Accountant
Location: Confidential | Multi-Location Construction Company
Employment Type: Full-Time

About the Opportunity
A well-established and growing construction organization is seeking a Corporate Accountant to join its finance team. This role is critical to maintaining accurate financial reporting across multiple projects and business units while supporting operational leaders with timely, reliable financial data.

This is an excellent opportunity for an accounting professional who understands the unique financial workflows of the construction industry — including job costing, WIP reporting, retainage, and project-based accounting.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Manage day-to-day corporate accounting functions and general ledger activity

• Prepare and maintain Work in Progress (WIP) schedules

• Perform job cost analysis and project financial tracking

• Handle retainage tracking and construction billing support

• Assist with month-end and year-end close processes

• Prepare financial statements and internal reports for leadership

• Reconcile bank accounts, credit cards, and intercompany transactions

• Support audit preparation and ensure compliance with accounting standards

• Collaborate with project managers and operations teams on budget vs. actual reporting

• Assist with process improvement and accounting system optimization

What We’re Looking For

• 3 years of accounting experience within the construction industry

• Strong understanding of job costing, WIP, retainage, and percent-complete accounting

• Experience working with construction accounting software (e.g., Sage, Viewpoint, Foundation, CMiC, or similar)

• Proficiency in Excel and financial reporting

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field preferred

• High attention to detail with strong organizational skills

• Ability to work cross-functionally with operations and leadership

• CPA or CPA-track is a plus, but not required

Why This Role Stands Out

• Stable, respected construction organization with a strong project pipeline

• Opportunity to work closely with leadership and influence financial visibility

• Competitive compensation and benefits package

• Collaborative, team-oriented culture

• Long-term growth potential within the organization
