    • 5+ years of progressive accounting experience

    • Strong understanding of GAAP, financial reporting, and month-end close

    • Experience with journal entries, reconciliations, and balance sheet management

    • Background in project-based industries (construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, or field services) preferred

    • Experience with fixed assets, job costing, or multi-entity accounting is a plus

    • CPA (or progress toward certification) preferred but not required

    • Strong ERP and advanced Microsoft Excel skills
