Project Accountant | Cincinnati, OH | Commercial Construction
We are partnered with a nationally recognized contractor with the resources and project portfolio of a large organization, but the close-knit, family-like culture of a much smaller company. Employees genuinely know and support one another, leadership remains accessible, and the company’s long-tenured teams reflect how seriously it takes employee development and retention.
Employees also receive formal promotional and compensation reviews every six months, giving high performers frequent opportunities to advance their careers and increase their earning potential.
The Opportunity
The Project Accountant will work closely with project managers, field leadership, subcontractors, and accounting leadership to oversee the financial performance of multiple construction projects.
This is not a traditional back-office accounting position. You will become an important member of each project team, gain exposure to the entire construction lifecycle, and build strong relationships across operations and senior leadership.
