Oversee construction finance processes, including project accounting, job costing, progress billing, vendor and subcontractor payments, client invoicing, holdbacks, statutory declarations, Work-in-Progress reporting, and project profitability tracking.
Review and manage financial requirements under construction contracts, including CCDC contracts, payment terms, change orders, lien-related documentation, and compliance requirements.
Manage project accounting workflows and financial reporting within Viewpoint, ensuring accurate and timely visibility into project costs, billings, commitments, and profitability.
Partner closely with ownership, operations, project management, estimating, and construction teams to provide financial insights, analyze budget variances, manage risk, and support business decision-making.
Act as a key financial liaison with clients, vendors, subcontractors, banks, auditors, insurance providers, and other external stakeholders, resolving billing, payment, and contract-related matters professionally.
Lead, mentor, and support the finance/accounting team by establishing clear expectations, processes, accountability, and a service-oriented finance culture.
Identify opportunities to improve financial processes, controls, reporting, systems, and communication between finance and operations.
