Staff Accountant

At Harrison Green, we create landscapes that enrich daily life, foster connection, and bring enduring beauty to the places people call home. Our work spans city rooftops, townhouses, country estates, hospitality environments, and boutique commercial projects, each approached with the same commitment to thoughtful design, meticulous execution, and long-term stewardship. As our business continues to scale across Design, Installation, and Maintenance, we are seeking an exceptional Staff Accountant & Business Analyst to manage our day-to-day financial operations and elevate our business intelligence. Reporting directly to the Chief Financial Officer, this role combines full-charge bookkeeping using QuickBooks Online with commercial business analysis. You will be responsible for accurate revenue/expense logging, invoicing, job-costing, and month-end reconciliations, while also distilling financial data into actionable insights, business-unit P&Ls, and KPI reports for leadership. Key Responsibilities

BOOKEEPING & FINANCIAL OPERATIONS

Manage day-to-day accounting functions in QuickBooks, including Accounts Receivable (invoicing, billing milestones, client follow-ups) and Accounts Payable (vendor bills, subcontractor payments, expense categorizations). Perform monthly bank, credit card, and merchant reconciliations; ensure clean ledger organization for seamless handoff to our external CPA/accountant for tax preparation and year-end filings. Execute job-costing tracking, attributing labor, plant materials, stone, and subcontractor costs to specific project lines across Design, Installation, and Maintenance divisions. Process payroll, employee expense reimbursement, track employee billable hours, and manage sales tax compliance and state filings. Identify opportunities to streamline financial systems, automate invoice tracking, and refine project-level accounting practices as the firm grows.

BUSINESS ANALYSIS, P&LS AND KPI TRACKING

Prepare, review, and analyze monthly, quarterly, and annual Profit & Loss (P&L) statements for each business unit (Design, Installation, Maintenance). Track, analyze, and report on core company and department KPIs on a quarterly basis. Synthesize financial data into clear, actionable executive summaries and visual dashboards for the leadership team, identifying trends, cost drivers, and margin improvement opportunities. Support project teams with cash flow forecasting, budget-to-actual variance reporting, and financial modeling for major capital or operational initiatives. Who You Are You are a detail-obsessed financial professional who loves clean books just as much as pulling out meaningful business stories from raw data. You enjoy operational problem-solving, bridge the gap between finance and field operations, and are comfortable communicating financial metrics to creative and operational leaders. What You Bring
