Construction Accountant

Full-time

Robert Half

Our client, a well-established and rapidly growing construction services organization, is seeking a Construction Accountant to join its team in the Savannah, GA area. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a company with deep roots in the industry and a strong presence across the Southeast.

Savannah continues to be one of the most active construction markets in the region, and construction remains one of the area’s most consistently booming industries. With ongoing development and expansion across residential and commercial sectors, now is an excellent time for an accounting professional to step into a high-impact role within this space.

This organization has grown from a family-founded business into a multi-state operator serving clients throughout Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Florida . With a strong reputation in specialty contracting, the company supports large-scale projects across high-volume residential and commercial developments.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage job cost accounting and project-related financial reporting
  • Track project budgets, subcontractor billings, and cost allocations
  • Reconcile accounts, analyze variances, and support month-end close
  • Partner with operations and project teams to ensure financial accuracy
  • Assist with WIP reporting, contract review, and revenue recognition
  • Monitor AP/AR activity related to construction projects
  • Support audit preparation and maintain organized financial documentation

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field REQUIRED
  • 4-8 years of accounting experience, (construction/project-based industry experience is REQUIRED)
  • Experience with job costing, WIP schedules, and construction billing
  • Strong Excel skills and comfort working within ERP/accounting systems

Why Apply:

  • Opportunity to join a growing, stable organization with a strong regional footprint
  • Exposure to large-scale, high-volume construction projects
  • Collaborative team environment with long-term career growth potential
  • Strong opportunity to make an impact during a period of continued expansion
