Construction Assistant Controller


Overview for the Assistant Controller






We’re working with a growing construction company looking to bring on a Controller to work closely with ownership and help guide the business through its next phase.


This is a newly created role tied to growth, not backfill. The company has been steadily expanding and is at a point where they need a strong financial leader to help bring structure, support decision-making, and scale what’s already working.



Why This Opportunity Stands Out for the Assistant Controller



  • Company revenue growth from $30M to $45M, with projections of $50M+ in the near term

  • Significant expansion opportunities, including new markets and service lines

  • Direct partnership with an owner/operator with 30+ years of success

  • Opportunity to build and shape the finance function during a key transition period

  • Stable organization with a long track record of consistent bonuses


Key Responsibilities for the Assistant Controller



  • Partner directly with ownership on financial strategy and day-to-day decisions

  • Oversee the full accounting and finance function across multiple entities

  • Own cash flow, forecasting, and financial planning

  • Review project performance and profitability across jobs

  • Lead budgeting and forecasting, and build out more forward-looking financial models

  • Put processes in place that can support continued growth and higher volume

  • Work closely with operations around costing, pricing, and investment decisions

  • Manage and develop the accounting team while keeping the culture collaborative and low-key


Preferred Qualifications for the Assistant Controller



  • Proven experience in a CFO, VP Finance, or high-level Controller/Finance leadership role

  • Strong background in construction or project-based industries

  • Demonstrated ability to support and scale a company through rapid growth

  • Strong financial acumen combined with business strategy mindset

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field
