Assistant Accountant

$60k - $75k

Creative Financial Staffing

Assistant Accountant
$60,000 - $75,000 + strong benefits package
Brooklyn, NY- On-site Daily

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
If you're looking to break into (or grow within) the real estate and construction space, this is an incredible opportunity to get hands-on experience with high-profile projects in one of the most competitive markets in the country.


You'll be working directly alongside an experienced accounting and project team, gaining exposure not just to accounting functions-but to how large-scale construction projects actually operate financially from start to finish.


What makes this role especially attractive:

  • Daily exposure to real estate and construction project finances
  • Free lunch provided every day
  • Monthly transportation stipend
  • Full health and dental coverage
  • 401(k) with employer support
  • Opportunity to learn Sage 300 and job cost accounting (highly valuable skillset)
  • Work closely with project managers and leadership-high visibility role
  • Stable, growing company with strong industry expertise and long-term pipeline
This is a strong fit for someone early in their career who wants to build real, practical accounting experience in a niche that offers long-term growth and earning potential.


Key Responsibilities of Assistant Accountant:
  • Process accounts payable and receivable, including high-volume vendor invoices and subcontractor payments
  • Track project costs and assist with job cost reporting using accounting systems
  • Record and maintain financial data related to construction projects and contracts
  • Support compliance efforts including insurance documentation and audit preparation
  • Collaborate with project managers and internal teams to resolve discrepancies and maintain accurate records
5Qualifications of Assistant Accountant:
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
  • Experience or exposure to accounting functions such as AP/AR or financial recordkeeping
  • Strong Excel skills and attention to detail with the ability to stay organized and meet deadlines
