  • Provide technical guidance and support to ensure timely and accurate execution of accounting responsibilities.
  • Assist in developing structure, clarity, and scalability within the accounting team.
  • Promote cross-training, documentation, and redundancy to reduce key-person dependency.

FP&A, Reporting & Business Insight

  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and reforecasting processes.
  • Develop meaningful management reporting, dashboards, and variance analysis.
  • Translate financial data into insights that support operational and leadership decision-making.

Cash Flow & Working Capital Support

  • Monitor cash flow, accounts receivable, accounts payable, retainage, and working capital trends.
  • Support billing discipline and collection efforts in partnership with operations.
  • Assist with lender, bonding, and audit-related reporting and analysis.

ESOP Support & Employee Ownership

  • Support ESOP administration processes in coordination with the CFO, trustee, valuation firm, and third-party partners.
  • Prepare and maintain annual financial and reporting support for the ESOP valuation process, including data requests, schedules, and analyses.
  • Assist with repurchase obligation forecasting and liquidity planning related to employee ownership.
  • Ensure appropriate documentation and controls for ESOP-related reporting and audit support.

Systems, Process & Continuous Improvement

  • Identify opportunities to improve finance processes, controls, and workflows.
  • Partner with internal and external resources to enhance ERP systems, reporting tools, and data integrity.
  • Reduce manual effort through standardization, automation, and improved system utilization.

Leadership & Team Development

  • Coach and mentor accounting and finance team members.
  • Help define clear roles, expectations, and performance standards.
  • Contribute to a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
  • Act as a visible, approachable finance leader across the organization.

Qualifications & Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; CPA and/or MBA preferred.
  • 10+ years of progressive experience in accounting and finance roles, including leadership responsibility.
  • Strong understanding of GAAP and financial reporting in a project-based or construction environment.
  • Experience with budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis.
  • Demonstrated ability to improve processes, implement systems, and develop teams.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to work effectively across finance, operations, and executive leadership.

  • High level of visibility and collaboration with senior leadership.
  • A culture that values trust, development, and long-term thinking.
