Senior Accountant

Birchwood Construction is looking for an experienced accountant who wants to help build the future of our accounting department, not just maintain it.

You'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a growing company known for exceptional craftsmanship, collaborative culture, and a commitment to excellence. If you're looking for challenging work, leadership opportunities, and outstanding work-life balance, we'd love to meet you.

Key Responsibilities
  • Partner with the Director of Finance to improve accounting processes and provide day-to-day leadership within the accounting function
  • Lead the month-end close process, reconciliations, and financial reporting
  • Analyze financial performance and recommend process improvements
  • Strengthen internal controls and accounting procedures
  • Support construction billing and project financial performance
  • Oversee cash reconciliations and treasury-related accounting
  • Review and approve invoices, expense reports, and vendor payments
  • Support year-end reporting and special projects
Qualifications
  • Degree in Accounting/5+ years of relevant accounting experience
  • Experience preparing financial statements
  • Strong understanding of GAAP
  • Demonstrated ability to take ownership of accounting processes from start to finish
  • Ability to identify process improvements
  • Superior analytical skills
  • Capable of working independently with a high attention to detail in a complex environment
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel skills
  • Utmost professionalism

Why You'll Love Working Here

We know top talent deserves top rewards. That's why we offer the most competitive compensation in the industry:

  • Full health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Predictable schedule with excellent work-life balance
  • Disability and life insurance to protect you from life's unknowns
  • 401(k) with 100% matching up to 6%
