Full Job Description

Construction Controller

Leadership & Strategy

Develop and implement financial strategies to achieve company goals
Lead and manage the accounting and finance team
Serve as a strategic financial partner to the executive leadership team
Drive continuous improvement of the accounting department - actively assessing team capabilities, identifying skill gaps, and implementing training and development plans
Champion a culture of accountability, accuracy, and financial discipline at the department level and across the organization

Operational Efficiency & Process Improvement

Streamline financial processes and procedures
Implement cost-saving initiatives and efficiency improvements
Own and optimize the full financial workflow within Viewpoint Vista - including chart of accounts, cost code structure, job cost setup, and financial reporting configuration
Partner with Operations to ensure equipment cost allocation, owned vs. rented asset tracking, and fleet depreciation are accurately coded and reflected in job cost reporting
Lead integration and process alignment between Vista and project management platforms (e.g., InEight) to ensure data integrity across financial and field systems
Always working to improve systems and processes

Financial Management & Risk Assessment

Oversee financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting
Manage cash flow, investments, and funding requirements
Identify, escalate, and mitigate financial risks
Build and maintain a rolling 13-week cash forecast tied to the billing cycle and project schedule - heavy civil cash is lumpy; mobilization, retainage, and public payment cycles must be anticipated
Own cost-to-complete and fade analysis with the standing to challenge a project manager’s projection - catch a front-loaded billing or hidden fade before it appears in the WIP
Maintain a live leading indicator dashboard - backlog burn, cash conversion, days to bill, days to collect, equipment utilization, and margin trend by job type
Prepare and analyze Work-in-Progress (WIP) schedules on a monthly basis; monitor percentage-of-completion revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606
Oversee job cost accounting across all active projects - tracking actuals vs. estimates, monitoring cost-to-complete, and flagging variances to project managers and executive leadership
Oversee and maintain accountability for lien waiver processes, preliminary notices, and subcontractor/vendor payment compliance - ensuring the team executes in accordance with contract terms and company policy
Prepare and maintain all financial documentation required to support surety bonding, including working capital calculations, bonding capacity analysis, and annual CPA-reviewed financial packages
Maintain and update backlog reporting; share with bonding agents and lenders to support and grow the company’s capacity

Equipment & Self-Perform Economics

Own owned-equipment revenue versus cost - ensure every unit is earning its internal rate or flag those that are not
Validate utilization and set internal rental rates that reflect actual cost, not convenience
Set and maintain labor and equipment burden rates - true job cost accuracy depends on burden being right
Partner with leadership on owned versus rented breakeven analysis and fleet depreciation in job cost reporting
Maintain financial integrity of equipment cost tracking within Vista, including depreciation schedules, equipment rates, and rental vs. owned asset reporting

Culture & Talent Development

Foster a culture of financial discipline and responsibility
Develop and train staff as appropriate
Maintain a positive, professional, and respectful attitude in all interactions to foster a productive and collaborative work environment
Recruit, onboard, and develop accounting department staff; establish clear performance expectations and conduct regular performance reviews
Assess the accounting team honestly, close skill gaps, and build the bench the company will need at the next level of revenue
Proactively identify staffing needs and gaps within the accounting function and propose solutions to leadership

External Relations & Representation

Communicate financial information to stakeholders, including bonding agents, accounting firm, investors, and lenders
Represent the company in financial matters
Collaborate with peers to supplement knowledge, skills, and expertise to align with company goals
Serve as the primary financial contact for surety/bonding agents; maintain and strengthen relationships that support the company’s bonding capacity and prequalification standing
Coordinate with external CPA firm on annual audits, tax preparation, and financial reviews
Collaborate with the company’s insurance broker and risk management contacts to ensure adequate coverage, timely renewals, and alignment with bonding and contract requirements

Technology & Innovation

Implement financial software and systems
Stay up to date with financial technology advancements
Serve as the financial module system owner for Vista by Viewpoint - managing configuration, user access, reporting, and upgrades in coordination with IT and operations
Lead the Vista and InEight integration so field and finance operate from the same data - project teams should never need to interface with accounting directly to get job cost clarity
Evaluate and recommend financial technology improvements; lead implementation of approved systems with minimal disruption to operations

Compliance & Day-to-Day Operations

Ensure compliance with financial regulations and laws
Oversee day-to-day financial operations, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, and payroll
Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements
Collaborate with internal staff and integrate feedback from the team into current processes
Maintain oversight of state contractor registrations, business license renewals, and tax compliance filings - ensuring deadlines are met in coordination with applicable internal teams
Ensure accurate and timely certified payroll reporting for applicable public works, FDOT, and other DOT-funded projects
Oversee subcontractor prequalification documentation, insurance certificate tracking, and payment release compliance
Drive change order discipline - every approved CO billed, every pending CO tracked, zero unbilled leakage
Other duties as assigned

Monitoring & Review

Review and analyze financial reports and data
Monitor financial performance and identify areas for improvement
Deliver monthly financial reporting package to executive leadership, including P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, WIP schedule, and job cost variance summary
Conduct regular reviews of job cost reports with project managers and operations leadership to ensure financial alignment with field execution
Drive a five to seven business day close - a fast close enables forward-looking decisions; a slow close means managing in the rearview

Requirements/Qualifications

7+ years of experience in financial management, including 2–5 years in a leadership role
Demonstrated experience at a self-perform heavy civil, marine, or infrastructure contractor - GC or vertical construction experience alone is not sufficient
Strong financial analysis, planning, and leadership skills
Excellent communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills
Proficient in accounting software - Vista by Viewpoint required; experience implementing and configuring Vista preferred; Sage 100 Contractor a plus
Knowledge of GAAP, financial regulations, and compliance requirements
Deep understanding of construction accounting principles: job costing, WIP reporting, percentage-of-completion revenue recognition (ASC 606), and lien management
Demonstrated experience with equipment cost tracking, internal rate setting, and fleet financial management within a construction ERP environment
Proven ability to manage and develop an accounting team - not just maintain, but actively improve the department
Strategic thinking and business acumen
Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
Knowledge of financial planning and analysis software
Strong leadership and team management skills
Ability to maintain confidentiality and handle sensitive information
Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills
Ability to communicate complex financial information to non-financial stakeholders and field operators
Bachelor’s degree in accounting, Finance, or related field (preferred)
CPA, CMA, or CCIFP (Certified Construction Industry Financial Professional) certification preferred

Pay: $150,000.00 - $170,000.00 per year
