Job Description

Title: Project Accountant
Location: Pawtucket, RI

Salary: $75,000-$85,000 DOE

Our client, an established and respected construction organization with a strong presence throughout New England, is interested in connecting with an experienced Project Accountant to support its construction accounting operations.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working closely with project managers, tracking project financial performance, and ensuring accuracy across billing, job costing, and reporting.

What the Project Accountant Will Be Doing:

  • Manage project accounting activities, including AIA billing, progress billing, and subcontractor invoicing.

  • Monitor job costs, project expenses, and billing accuracy throughout the project lifecycle.

  • Partner with project managers to review costs, resolve discrepancies, and maintain accurate financial records.

  • Process and reconcile subcontractor invoices, change orders, and project-related transactions.

  • Utilize construction accounting systems and billing portals to support invoicing and reporting.

  • Assist with project financial reporting and general accounting activities as needed.


Why This Project Accountant Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Join an established construction organization with a strong reputation in New England.

  • Opportunity to work closely with project managers and operational leadership.

  • Broad exposure to construction accounting and project financial management.

  • Collaborative, team-oriented environment.

  • Competitive benefits package, including strong employer contributions toward healthcare and retirement.


What We're Looking For in a Project Accountant:

  • Previous project accounting experience within construction, mechanical contracting, or a related industry.

  • Strong understanding of AIA billing, subcontractor invoicing, and job costing.

  • Experience with construction accounting software and project billing platforms.

  • Ability to communicate effectively with project managers and accounting teams.

  • Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple projects.
