• Process subcontractor pay applications, collect lien waivers, and ensure compliance with notices of commencement.
• Manage equipment & fleet accounting (depreciation, internal rentals, fuel, maintenance).
• Assist with monthly bank reconciliations, accounts payable/receivable, and general ledger entries.
• Support project managers with real-time cost-to-complete reports and variance analysis.

Qualifications:
• 2+ years of accounting experience, preferably in construction, trades, or real estate development.
• Proficiency with construction ERP & accounting software (e.g., QuickBooks, BuildTrend, Sage 300 CRE, Foundation, Viewpoint, or Procore).
• Solid understanding of job cost ledgers, WIP schedules, and percentage-of-completion (POC) accounting.
• Familiarity with lien laws, retainage rules, and AIA billing documents.
• Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUP).

Preferred:
