We're looking for an Assistant Controller who enjoys ownership, thrives in a collaborative environment, and wants the opportunity to help shape how accounting supports a growing organization.

If you're looking for a role where your ideas matter, your work has visibility, and you'll partner directly with executive leadership, we'd love to meet you.

Reporting directly to the CFO, you'll serve as the operational leader of accounting. You'll own the day-to-day accounting function, strengthen financial processes, and ensure accurate, timely reporting across multiple entities.

• Support internal controls and accounting best practices

Construction & Project Accounting

• Review vendor invoices and subcontractor payments
• Manage vendor records, credit card reconciliations, expense reporting, and annual 1099 
• Perform bank reconciliations and manage daily cash activity and intercompany transfers

Process Improvement & Growth

• Help develop scalable accounting processes as the organization grows
• Partner with the CFO on process improvements and financial initiatives
• Collaborate with external partners on tax and compliance matters
• Contribute to ERP optimization and continuous improvement initiatives

• Strong understanding of job costing, WIP schedules, and percentage-of-completion accounting

• Communicates effectively with both finance and operations teams
• Can balance multiple priorities while maintaining attention to detail

You'll enjoy:

• Direct partnership with the CFO and executive leadership
• Meaningful ownership and autonomy
• Exposure to multiple operating companies within a growing portfolio
