• Maintain compliance with government contract accounting standards, Davis-Bacon Act, and audit requirements.
• Ensure accurate financial reporting, month-end close, and budget-to-actual variance analysis.
• Collaborate with project managers to support cost control, forecasting, and resource planning.
• Manage internal controls and help develop systems to improve accuracy, efficiency, and transparency in reporting.
• Offer mentorship and structure for ongoing improvements.
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (CPA a plus).
• Minimum 7+ years in construction accounting, with heavy civil or government project experience required.
• Strong command of GAAP, job cost accounting, and construction cost control systems.
