Payroll Administration Process weekly payroll for multiple construction contractors. Manage payroll across multiple systems, including platforms such as ADP, Paychex, and certified payroll systems. Ensure payroll is processed accurately and on schedule. Review payroll information against project, union, and contractual requirements. Coordinate with contractors and virtual support staff to resolve payroll discrepancies. Escrow & Funds Control Establish and administer 2-3 escrow accounts in connection with contractor funds-control arrangements. Monitor contractor funds and ensure disbursements comply with surety, escrow, and contractual requirements. Review and approve documentation supporting fund disbursements. Maintain accurate records of escrow activity and contractor obligations. Serve as a key point of contact with banking partners regarding escrow and funds-control matters. Qualifications Required Hands-on QuickBooks experience a PLUS , including construction job costing and reviewing work completed by others. Direct experience preparing or overseeing WIP schedules in a construction environment. Understanding of billings-to-date, cost-to-complete, percentage-of-completion, and over/under-billing. Experience processing payroll using multiple payroll systems. Strong Excel and financial reporting skills. Exceptional attention to detail and organizational skills. Ability to manage multiple contractors, projects, deadlines, and financial requirements simultaneously. Comfortable working directly with contractors, banks, unions, and other external stakeholders. Experience managing or directing remote/virtual staff. #J-18808-Ljbffr
