- Ensure accurate and timely payroll tax filings, as well as sales tax reporting and compliance
- Lead the year-end financial closeout and annual budget planning process
- Advise and support the team on cost allocations, job coding accuracy, and general ledger management
- Oversee credit applications and financial risk assessments
- Work closely with HR and Operations on insurance and compliance matters

- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
- 7-10+ years of experience in accounting, preferably in a construction or project-based environment
- Strong understanding of GAAP principles (CPA preferred but not required)
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Outlook, Word, etc.)
- Experience with Sage or other construction accounting software is a plus
- Proven ability to analyze financial data, communicate insights, and collaborate with leadership
