Job Description



Project Accountant
Salary: $75,000-90,000 depending on experience
Located in East Vancouver (onsite)


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


• Be part of a collaborative, fully onsite team environment where your contributions are highly visible
• Opportunity to expand your knowledge of progress billing, change orders, and project controls
• Work on diverse construction projects and see the direct impact of your work on project success
• Enjoy a role with strong cross-functional interaction and operational involvement beyond traditional accounting
• Great Benefits

Key Responsibilities for the Project Accountant:


• Track labor, equipment, material, subcontractor, and overhead costs against project budgets
• Prepare progress billings, owner pay applications, and support change order tracking
• Process subcontractor and vendor invoices while ensuring compliance documentation is complete
• Assist with Work-in-Progress (WIP) reporting, forecasting, and project profitability analysis
• Support month-end close activities, account reconciliations, and project financial reporting
• Collaborate with Project Managers to monitor budgets, costs, and financial performance throughout project lifecycles

Qualifications for the Project Accountant:


• 3+ years of accounting experience within the construction industry
• Experience with job costing, project accounting, or construction financial reporting
• Knowledge of progress billing, WIP schedules, and project cost tracking
• Strong Excel skills and experience working with accounting or ERP systems


Timing is everything. We specialize in placing accounting and finance professionals, and many of our positions are not posted online.
