Project Accountant

$110k - $120k

Creative Financial Staffing

Project Accountant (Construction)

Step into a high-impact role where you’ll directly influence multimillion-dollar construction projects and partner with executive leadership to drive growth. This is a rare opportunity to become the financial backbone of a rapidly scaling construction organization.

Salary: $110,000 – $120,000 + bonus

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
  • Work directly with executive leadership as a true right-hand partner influencing major business decisions
  • Take ownership of financials across large-scale, high-rise and development projects valued in the hundreds of millions
  • Be part of a company in transformation mode with a clear path to scale from $120M to $500M+
  • Gain exposure to diverse operations across New York, Florida, and international projects
  • High visibility role with direct impact on project performance and company growth
  • Opportunity to help modernize systems (QuickBooks → Sage Intacct) and improve processes from the ground up
  • Fast decision-making environment, your work will drive immediate action and results
  • Strong career trajectory with potential to expand into broader leadership or multi-entity oversight roles
  • Collaborative environment bridging finance and operations across multiple project teams
Key Responsibilities for the Project Accountant:
  • Own full project accounting lifecycle from bid through closeout
  • Track costs, revenue, and project progress across 8–10 active construction projects
  • Manage AIA billing, change orders, subcontractor payments, and lien waivers
  • Partner with project managers to translate operational updates into financial reporting
  • Ensure accuracy, timeliness, and control of all project-related financial activity
Qualifications for the Project Accountant:
  • 5+ years of project accounting experience, preferably in construction
  • Strong knowledge of AIA billing, requisitions, and subcontractor processes
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or related field
  • Experience managing financials across multiple concurrent projects

Location: Baldwin, NY – On-site; local candidate only (steps from LIRR Baldwin Station)

Schedule: On-site, Monday to Friday 8am-5pm
