Controller

AVAILABILITY Professional Staffing

Exciting Controller opportunity to join a stable, financially healthy union construction company with a long-standing reputation for quality, safety, and taking care of its employees.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a hands-on construction accounting leader who wants more than just another Controller role. You'll work directly with ownership, have a voice in key business decisions, and help shape the financial future of a successful and growing organization.

Even better—the current Controller is retiring after a successful tenure and will remain available to support training, knowledge transfer, and a smooth transition into the role.

If you are considering sending an application, make sure to hit the apply button below after reading through the entire description.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead accounting and financial operations, including GL, AP, AR, payroll, cash management, and financial reporting
  • Oversee construction job costing, WIP reporting, billing, and revenue recognition
  • Manage union payroll and related compliance requirements
  • Partner with project managers and operations to analyze project performance and profitability
  • Strengthen accounting processes, internal controls, and reporting
  • Help lead the company's planned transition from American Contractor to Sage
  • Serve as a trusted financial partner to ownership and company leadership

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or related field
  • 8+ years of accounting leadership experience within the construction industry
  • Significant xhyhwjd experience in a union construction environment
  • Strong expertise in job costing, WIP schedules, construction billing, and revenue recognition
  • Advanced Excel skills
  • A hands-on, collaborative leadership style with strong analytical and problem-solving abilities

If you're a proven construction accounting leader who enjoys being both strategic and hands-on, this is an opportunity to step into a strong organization where your expertise and ideas will have a visible impact.
