Creative Financial Staffing

  • Gain exposure to diverse operations across New York, Florida, and international projects
  • High visibility role with direct impact on project performance and company growth
  • Opportunity to help modernize systems (QuickBooks ? Sage Intacct) and improve processes from the ground up
  • Fast decision-making environment, your work will drive immediate action and results
  • Strong career trajectory with potential to expand into broader leadership or multi-entity oversight roles
  • Collaborative environment bridging finance and operations across multiple project teams

Key Responsibilities for the Project Accountant:

  • Own full project accounting lifecycle from bid through closeout
  • Track costs, revenue, and project progress across 810 active construction projects
  • Manage AIA billing, change orders, subcontractor payments, and lien waivers
  • Partner with project managers to translate operational updates into financial reporting
  • Ensure accuracy, timeliness, and control of all project-related financial activity

Qualifications for the Project Accountant:

  • 5+ years of project accounting experience, preferably in construction
  • Strong knowledge of AIA billing, requisitions, and subcontractor processes
  • Bachelors degree in Accounting or related field
  • Experience managing financials across multiple concurrent projects
