About us

US-WDS, Inc. is a growing, private equity-backed window and door dealing company with residential operations across three locations and a commercial construction division. Our accounting team is small, hands-on, and central to how the business runs.

About the role

You'll run day-to-day accounting across both businesses and own the monthly close. Your core focus is commercial construction accounting: job costing, the WIP schedule, and revenue recognition on long-running projects. You'll also review residential accounting, which uses the completed contract method. This is a hands-on role for someone who likes owning the work and leading a small team.

What you'll do

• Own commercial construction accounting, including job cost review, cost-to-complete estimates, and the monthly WIP schedule
• Calculate over- and under-billings and record revenue under ASC 606 for over-time contracts
• Prepare commercial progress billings and support AIA pay applications
• Run the consolidated month-end close across all residential and commercial entities
• Prepare and review journal entries, accruals, and balance sheet reconciliations
• Handle intercompany activity and consolidation
• Review residential accounting prepared by the Senior Staff Accountant, including job closeouts
• Supervise and train the Accounts Payable Specialist, and approve vendor setup and changes
• Prepare monthly financial statements for VP Controller review
• Maintain internal controls and segregation of duties, and support the annual audit
• Partner with project managers on job cost accuracy and budget updates

What you bring

• Bachelor's degree in accounting or finance
• 5+ years of accounting experience, including 3+ years in construction accounting
• Hands-on experience with percentage-of-completion and completed-method accounting, WIP schedules, and job costing
• Working knowledge of ASC 606 as it applies to construction contracts
• Experience owning or leading a month-end close, including multi-entity consolidation
• Experience with a construction accounting system such as NetSuite, Sage Intaact, and RAMP
• Advanced Excel skills
• Experience supervising or mentoring staff

Nice to have

• CPA, or progress toward one
• Experience with both residential and commercial construction
• Audit experience, or experience supporting external audits
• Experience in a private equity-backed environment
