Own the full set of books for a US specialty contractorfrom the weekly bank feed through certified payroll, retainage, and month-end close.
Our client is a US East Coast specialty contractor working on commercial, institutional, and government construction projects. They are hiring one accountant to own the accounting function end to end: the daily transaction work, the monthly close, the receivables, the construction-specific reporting, and the compliance filings that come with working on public and commercial projects.
This is not a dataentry seat, and it is not a piece of a larger accounting team. You are the person who makes sure the books are right, the statements go out on the first, retainage is tracked across every live project, and the certified payroll and project reports are filed accurately and on time. The owner will read the reports you produce and make decisions from them.
It also takes a particular kind of person. Alongside the technical work, you will occasionally pick up the phone and speak with a customer about an overdue balance—these are existing relationships, so the conversation has to collect the money and keep the relationship intact. If you are precise with numbers and warm with people, this role was written for you.
