The posting

Are you a project accounting professional ready to take ownership of a full project portfolio in a complex, construction-driven environment? As a Project Accountant at Ledcor, you will independently manage the financial operations of your assigned projects — delivering accurate accounts receivable and payable transactions, coordinating client invoicing, managing subcontract reconciliations, and supporting month-end close — all while ensuring the numbers hold up under scrutiny from project teams, clients, and leadership.

Reporting to the Senior Project Accountant or Project Controller, you will bring a minimum of 2 years of project accounting experience and the confidence to operate with a high degree of independence. You are fluent in ERP and project management information systems, comfortable with intermediate Excel analysis, and skilled at identifying trends and issues in cost data before they become problems. You will also serve as a day-to-day resource for junior team members, contributing to a supportive and high-performing project finance team.

Come and join the True Blue team and build your career with one of Canada's most established construction companies.

Essential Responsibilities

  • Deliver accurate and complete accounts receivable and accounts payable transactions for assigned projects, acting as a reliable resource for P1 Project Accountants on day-to-day financial processing questions
  • Coordinate the preparation and timely submission of detailed client invoices, ensuring billing accuracy and alignment with contract terms, project milestones, and applicable tax requirements
  • Process subcontract payments including reconciliation of invoices to subcontracts and validation of compliance documentation for completeness prior to approval
  • Validate and deliver accurate labour and equipment time capture, including billing rates, resource classifications, and chart of account maintenance across assigned projects
  • Support month-end close activities including costing entries, cost report preparation, and reviewing project financials with project teams to identify variances and drive timely resolution
  • Assist the Senior Project Accountant with payment collection follow-up and resolution of outstanding client payment issues, maintaining accurate records throughout
  • Deliver ad hoc financial reports and conduct basic analysis for project teams, identifying cost trends, anomalies, and potential risks and communicating findings clearly to stakeholders
  • Utilize internal and external project systems including ERP, PMIS, and billing platforms; perform intermediate Excel functions (PivotTables, SUMIFs, lookups) and support system ticket submissions for project financial activities

Qualifications

  • Minimum 2 years of experience in a project accounting or related financial role, with demonstrated ability to independently manage AR/AP transactions, client invoicing, and month-end activities
  • College diploma or technical certification in Business or Commerce is required; a bachelor's degree is preferred; equivalent combinations of education and experience will be considered
  • Working knowledge of project accounting principles, including subcontract management, cost coding, equipment utilization, and basic contractual and commercial terms in a construction context
  • Experience with ERP and PMIS systems; familiarity with JD Edwards (JDE) is a significant asset
  • Intermediate proficiency in Microsoft Excel, including PivotTables, SUMIFs, and lookup functions, with strong overall comfort in Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook)
  • Strong attention to detail and analytical skills, with the ability to identify variances in cost data and communicate findings clearly to project teams and leadership
  • Solid organizational and time management skills, with the ability to independently prioritize and manage multiple active projects and deadlines simultaneously
  • Professional communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence to liaise with clients, suppliers, and project operations teams; a valid driver's licence and willingness to travel to project sites are assets

Work Environment

  • Hybrid role with work split across home office, corporate office, and project site locations; occasional travel to project sites required (estimated less than 25% of time)
  • Hiring for multiple positions. Suitable candidate for Ledcor Construction: Hybrid role, on-site 3-4 days per week in Caledon Ontario. Suitable candidate for Ledcor Highways: Hybrid role, with travel every couple of months to Sault Ste Marie.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
