Partner closely with project managers to monitor project budgets, cost-to-complete, forecasts, risk exposures, and profitability.
Review job cost reports, progress billings, change orders, subcontractor commitments, and cost variances.

Maintain and enhance internal controls, accounting policies, and financial procedures.
Lead improvements in ERP/accounting system usage, reporting tools, Excel-based financial models, and automated workflows.
Evaluate current financial processes and implement best-in-class practices suitable for a growing GC.

5. Leadership & Cross-Functional Collaboration

Lead, mentor, and develop the accounting and finance team.
Collaborate with operations, estimating, and executive leadership to ensure financial accuracy and project accountability.
Act as a strategic partner to the VP of Finance and senior management team.
