    Job Description



    Ready to take ownership of the financial performance of complex construction projects while helping shape the future of a growing organization? This Financial Controller opportunity offers direct visibility with executive leadership, meaningful operational impact, and the chance to drive financial excellence across the business.

    Financial Controller


    Salary: $100,000 - $150,000 + Bonus and competitive benefits
    Location: 100% Onsite. Open to candidates within a reasonable commute range of company headquarters.

    Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


    • Join a leadership team where the Financial Controller has direct influence on business performance and strategic decision-making.
    • Gain high visibility with executive management and play a key role in guiding company growth.
    • Leverage your construction accounting expertise to improve profitability, forecasting, and financial controls.
    • Work closely with project managers, operations leaders, and preconstruction teams to impact project success from start to finish.
    • Help strengthen and enhance financial processes, reporting systems, and internal controls across the organization.
    • Enjoy a stable environment with long-term career growth opportunities for an experienced Financial Controller.
    • Participate in an employee-focused benefits package including health insurance, paid time off, holidays, and 401(k) match.
    • Expand your influence beyond traditional accounting as a trusted business partner and operational advisor.
    • Contribute to a growing construction organization where the Financial Controller is viewed as a strategic resource rather than a back-office function.
    • Receive ongoing professional development opportunities to further advance your career as a Financial Controller.

    Key Responsibilities for the Financial Controller:


    • Oversee financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, cash flow planning, and performance analysis.
    • Review and monitor job-cost accounting, project profitability, revenue recognition, and work-in-progress reporting.
    • Partner with operations and project management teams to identify financial risks, margin concerns, and cost overruns.
    • Oversee accounts receivable, collections, accounts payable, vendor payments, and cash management activities.
    • Maintain and audit financial controls, policies, procedures, and compliance processes.
    • Develop management dashboards and reporting tools that provide actionable business insights.

    Qualifications for the Financial Controller:


    • Construction industry accounting or financial management experience required.
    • Strong background in job costing, project accounting, and construction financial reporting.
    • Experience with Sage 300 or similar construction-focused ERP/accounting software.
    • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or related field preferred.



    If you're an experienced Financial Controller seeking a high-impact opportunity where your financial expertise can directly influence operational success, this Financial Controller role offers the visibility, responsibility, and growth potential to take your career to the next level.
