- Prepare, submit, and track construction loan draw requests with lenders
- Perform bank and credit card reconciliations and support month-end close

- 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
