Controller - growing construction company

Well-established, family-owned construction business is looking for a strategic Controller who can be a true business-partner to the CEO and President.

This organization has grown organically over the last 30+ years and as that growth continues, finds a need for a strong Controller with an analytical, business-savvy mindset to help take the company to the next level.

Ideal candidates have a background and experience in a construction-related industry. Strong reporting and systems skills. Excellent understanding of job costing and revenue projections. The ability to build out strategic reports and be a business partner, working closely with the CEO and with project managers in the field.

Overseeing a small team, the ideal Controller has a collaborative and supportive personality to fit in with this culture. The company is known for an incredibly positive, flexible and understanding culture. The team is working in-office 3 or 4 days per week, depending on preference and the ideal candidate will want that type of balance: enjoying the opportunity to build relationships in office, but also the chance to work-from-home a few days per week.

Requirements:

• 10+ years of construction accounting experience, ideally previous experience at the Controller level for a small, growing construction company
• BS, Accounting ideally
• CPA or MBA preferred, but not required
• Strong financial reporting experience, excellent system skills
• Experience overseeing GL accounting, AP, AR, payroll, billing, etc
