Job Details

The Project Cost Accountant is a specialized, career-track position responsible for tracking and managing financial performance across active commercial construction projects. This is not a generalist accounting role -it requires someone who understands the nuances of project-based cost accounting in a large-scale commercial construction environment. The right candidate will be proficient in construction ERP and project management platforms, comfortable with AI productivity tools, and ready to contribute with minimal ramp time.

What You'll Own
Monitor and manage project budgets, cost codes, and expenditures across active commercial construction jobs
Process and reconcile subcontractor and vendor invoices against project contracts and purchase orders
Track committed costs, change orders, and job cost variances throughout the project lifecycle
Prepare and distribute regular WIP (work-in-progress) reports for project managers and leadership
Coordinate with project managers and field staff to ensure accurate cost allocation and timely billing
Support monthly close processes including job cost journal entries and cost-to-complete projections
Maintain organized project financial records across construction management and ERP platforms
Leverage AI tools to improve reporting efficiency and workflow

Skills required:
1-10 years of experieince:
Demonstrated experience in project cost accounting within a commercial construction environment - large-scale projects required; residential or small contractor background will not be considered
Proficiency in Procore and Sage Intacct strongly preferred
Familiarity with or active curiosity about AI productivity tools
Understanding of construction financials: WIP schedules, job costing, change order management, and subcontractor billing
Detail-oriented with the ability to manage multiple active projects simultaneously
Collaborative communicator who works well with project managers and field teams
Adaptable mindset
You're looking for a long-term home in project accounting, not a path to a corner office
