Senior Project Accountant

Creative Financial Staffing

Senior Project Accountant
Salary: 90k-110k


Grow your career in construction accounting while gaining exposure to high-profile infrastructure projects. Join a team where your work directly impacts project performance and financial outcomes!

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
  • Work on complex, large-scale infrastructure projects with real financial visibility
  • Strong mentorship from experienced finance leaders and clear path for growth
  • Exposure to project operations, giving you a broader business perspective beyond accounting
  • Stable, well-established company with a family-oriented, collaborative culture
  • Opportunity to partner closely with Project Managers and field teams
  • Hands-on experience with forecasting, job costing, and cash flow management
  • High-volume environment that accelerates skill development and career progression
  • Hybrid flexibility after initial onboarding period
  • Comprehensive benefits including 401(k) match, PTO, and wellness programs
Key Responsibilities for the Senior Project Accountant:
  • Manage job cost tracking, forecasting, and variance analysis for assigned projects
  • Partner with Project Managers on budgeting, billing, and financial performance
  • Prepare and maintain monthly financial reports and project forecasts
  • Support cash flow management, invoicing, and collections
  • Review and process project-related expenses and subcontractor costs
Qualifications for the Senior Project Accountant:
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
  • 2-6 years of relevant accounting experience
  • Construction or project-based accounting experience preferred
  • Strong Excel skills
