Staff Accountant

Staff Accountant
Salary: $70,000-80,000
Location: Orlando, FL (On-site with occasional plant visits)

Overview

We are partnering with a growing, multi‑entity construction and manufacturing organization to hire a Staff Accountant for a newly created, hands‑on role. This position was added due to increased business volume, evolving processes, and the need for stronger oversight across inventory and job costing functions.
Reporting directly to leadership, this role offers broad exposure across multiple operating entities and close collaboration with both accounting and operations.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• 
  
• Newly created role driven by growth—not a backfill
• 
  
• High‑visibility position with direct access to leadership and decision‑makers
• 
  
• Broad, hands‑on scope across inventory, job costing, and process improvement
• 
  
• Opportunity to build structure and improve accounting workflows
• 
  
• Exposure to both construction and manufacturing environments
• 
  
• Long‑term growth potential with increasing responsibility over time
• 
  

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves and working closely with both accounting and operational teams.

Key Responsibilities

• 
  
• Oversee inventory processes, including monthly and annual counts, plant visits, and reconciliation of raw and finished goods
• 
  
• Manage job costing activities and support project‑based accounting and billing
• 
  
• Perform account reconciliations and ensure accuracy across multiple entities
• 
  
• Identify process gaps and implement improvements across accounting workflows and reporting
• 
  
• Review system data, exports, and integrations to ensure completeness and accuracy
• 
  
• Provide oversight and support to clerical accounting functions (AP, AR, billing)
• 
  
• Assist with audit preparation and ongoing financial reporting needs
• 
  

Qualifications

• 
  
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting required
• 
  
• 3–5+ years of accounting experience (flexible for strong junior or more senior candidates)
• 
  
• Inventory and/or job costing experience strongly preferred
• 
  
• Background in construction, manufacturing, or project‑based environments is a plus
• 
  
• Hands‑on mindset with willingness to work in plant and operational settings
• 
  
• Strong problem‑solving skills and comfort navigating manual or evolving processes
• 
  
• Adaptable, practical, and comfortable in a fast‑paced, less‑structured environment
• 
  

Work Environment

• 
  
• Primarily onsite, with occasional travel to plant locations (approximately monthly)
• 
  
• Hands‑on, operational setting with exposure to plant and field activities
• 
  
• Lean team structure with close collaboration across accounting and operations
• 
  

This opportunity is well suited for an accounting professional who enjoys being close to the business, working alongside operations, and helping build structure within a growing construction and manufacturing organization.
