Manage project accounting activities, including payables, receivables, billings, collections, and cash-flow monitoring.
Lead the preparation and review of work-in-process reports, project projections, cost-to-complete forecasts, and profitability analyses.
Participate in WIP and project-review meetings, providing actionable financial guidance to project and operational leaders.
Own the division’s budgeting, forecasting, financial planning, and management-reporting processes.
Serve as a strategic financial partner to divisional executives by identifying trends, risks, and opportunities and recommending appropriate actions.
Prepare financial analyses, business-review materials, and executive-level reporting to support decision-making and strategic planning.
Coordinate financial and compliance information required by the parent company, external auditors, insurance providers, and legal partners.
Strengthen financial controls and improve processes related to closing, reporting, project accounting, billing, collections, and forecasting.

Qualifications

10-15 years of relevant experience in the construction industry.
Previous experience as a Senior Finance Manager or in a comparable financial leadership role within a small to midsized construction company.
Deep knowledge of construction accounting, GAAP, budgeting, forecasting, financial-statement preparation, and work-in-process reporting.
Strong understanding of construction operations, project financials, and cost-to-complete management.
Advanced Microsoft Excel skills and proficiency with Microsoft Word and PowerPoint.
Experience with Procore and/or CMiC is preferred.
Public accounting experience is a plus.
