Construction / Manufacturing Accountant

Are you a hands-on Senior Accountant who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment? Looking to step into a high-impact role where you can partner with operations, sharpen your cost accounting expertise, and grow into the business?

This is a temp-to-hire opportunity with strong potential for long-term growth.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Unique blend of construction + manufacturing accounting
• High visibility with leadership and operations teams
• Opportunity to step in, make an immediate impact, and grow
• Collaborative, down-to-earth team (great sense of humor required)
• Build something meaningful in a growing, sustainable industry

Responsibilities

• Lead cost accounting & inventory management (labor, materials, overhead)
• Partner with factory and project teams to analyze job costs and improve performance
• Own key aspects of the month-end close (JEs, reconciliations, variance analysis)
• Manage day-to-day accounting operations (AP, AR, GL)
• Support project accounting and project administration
• Prepare sales & use tax filings (multi-state)
• Deliver financial reporting, margin analysis, and cost trends
• Assist with audits and internal controls
• Provide ad hoc analysis and support strategic initiatives

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
• 5-7+ years of progressive accounting experience
• Construction/project accounting - required
• Strong Excel skills (must-have)
• Familiarity with ERP systems (Vista Viewpoint a plus; not required)
• Experience working in fast-paced, operational environments

Someone who is:

• Adaptable, coachable, and solutions-oriented
• Comfortable jumping in and figuring things out
• Collaborative with a positive, humble attitude
• Able to work across diverse personalities

Nice-to-Have

• CPA or CMA
• Experience with Power BI, Prophix, or AutoDesk
• Background supporting project-based manufacturing or construction environments

Team & Environment

You'll be joining a small but mighty accounting team, working in an open, collaborative office environment. This is a role for someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, wearing multiple hats, and being part of a growing operation.
