Accounting & Administrative Clerk

About CMI Cabinet Masters, Inc. is a commercial millwork subcontractor serving large general contractors on commercial projects across the continental United States. Our finance and administrative function is scaling, and we're looking for a detail-driven clerk to take ownership of the day-to-day data entry and paperwork that keeps billing, payables, and job records accurate. We run on a clear set of values ( Figure it Out, Team First, Own Your Number, Quality Matters, and Do What You Say ), and we hire people who already work that way. If you embody these values, we'll train you on the rest! Position Summary The Accounting & Administrative Clerk provides clerical and administrative support across the accounting function, working under the direction of the Controller and alongside our AR/Collections and AP/Payroll managers. This is a hands‑on, high‑volume role focused on accurate data entry, document management, and keeping records current in QuickBooks Online (QBO) and INNERGY. The right person owns their number , meaning the accuracy of every entry, invoice, and file is theirs, and works team first to keep Collections and Payroll moving. You will initiate and organize transactions and paperwork; reconciliation, approvals, and sign‑off remain with the Controller and management team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their accounting or bookkeeping career to build broad exposure to construction finance in a company that invests in cross‑training and clear process. How We Work: Our Core Values Figure it Out: You're resourceful. When you hit something you haven't seen before, you dig in, learn the system, and find the answer rather than waiting to be handed one. Team First: Your work exists to make Collections and Payroll faster and cleaner. You pick up the paperwork and data entry so the team can focus on judgment calls, and you step in to cover when they're slammed. Own Your Number: Every entry, invoice, waiver, and file that passes through you is yours. You stand behind its accuracy and you don't let things fall through the cracks. Quality Matters: You keep records clean, complete, and audit‑ready the first time. Details are the job, not an afterthought. Do What You Say: You hit your deadlines, you follow through on commitments, and when something's going to slip, you flag it early.
