Staff Accountant - $70K-$90K, Construction Industry

$70k - $90k

ADU EXPRESS

Staff Accountant — ADU Express

Location: 19210 S Vermont Ave, Building E, Gardena, CA 90248 (on-site)

Job Type: Full-Time

Pay: $70,000–$90,000/year, depending on experience

Schedule: Monday–Friday, in office daily

Reports To: Controller

About the Role

ADU Express is hiring a Staff Accountant to own day-to-day accounting across our family of construction entities. You'll run full-cycle AP/AR, keep the books clean across multiple companies, and manage the construction loan draw process that keeps our projects funded. You'll work directly with our Controller out of our Gardena office.

A Note on Working On-Site

This is an in-office role, five days a week, at our Gardena headquarters. Our accounting team works side-by-side with project managers and field staff, and that's where this job happens. If you're looking for hybrid or remote, this isn't the right fit — but if you like being where the action is, you'll be at the center of it.

What You'll Do

  • Run full-cycle accounts payable and receivable: vendor invoices, billing, collections, and payment runs
  • Maintain accurate books across multiple entities, including intercompany transactions and reconciliations
  • Prepare, submit, and track construction loan draw requests with lenders
  • Perform bank and credit card reconciliations and support month-end close
  • Code job costs and expenses to the right projects in QuickBooks
  • Support the Controller with financial reporting, audits, and process improvements

Required

  • 3+ years of accounting experience, including AP/AR
  • Hands-on QuickBooks experience
  • Experience with accounting across multiple entities (multiple companies or LLCs)
  • Experience with construction loan draws
  • Able to work on-site daily at our Gardena office

Preferred

  • Real estate or construction industry accounting experience
  • Bilingual: English/Spanish
  • Experience supporting month-end close and financial reporting

Compensation & Growth

  • $70,000–$90,000/year, based on experience
  • Free Welcome+ membership for up to 12 months while actively employed — includes $0 cost telemedicine with unlimited 24/7 access, counseling support, prescription discounts, dental (Aetna Dental Access®), and vision. Covers you and your family (spouse + children under 26).
  • Growing company with room to take on more responsibility as our project portfolio expands
