Key Responsibilities:

  • Review and process construction-related invoices, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and compliance with internal controls and approval requirements.
  • Partner with Project Managers and construction teams to validate project costs, commitments, change orders, and supporting documentation.
  • Monitor project budgets, cost transfers, and ongoing project expenditures to support effective cost management.
  • Coordinate monthly construction draw submissions and supporting schedules for lenders and project stakeholders.
  • Assist with project funding activities, cash flow reporting, and lender documentation requirements.
  • Support month-end close activities, project reconciliations, and financial reporting requirements.
  • Analyze project costs, trends, and variances to support budgeting, forecasting, and decision-making.
  • Maintain project tracking schedules, databases, and reporting tools used to monitor project performance.
  • Assist with project audits, cost reviews, and project closeout activities.
  • Develop and enhance financial models, reports, and tracking tools to improve efficiency and reporting accuracy.
  • Support process improvement initiatives and help strengthen accounting procedures, documentation standards, and internal controls.
  • Collaborate with finance, construction, and project teams to streamline workflows related to contracts, procurement, invoicing, and cost management.
  • Participate in special projects and ad hoc analysis as required.

Qualifications:

  • Degree or diploma in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field.
  • Experience in construction accounting, project accounting, real estate development, or a similar project-based environment.
  • CPA designation or active pursuit of the designation is considered an asset.
  • Advanced Excel skills with strong proficiency across the Microsoft Office suite.
  • Strong analytical skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage large volumes of financial information.
  • Excellent organizational and time-management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to work effectively across finance, operations, and project teams.
  • Proactive, self-motivated, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
  • Experience supporting large-scale construction, infrastructure, development, or capital projects is considered an asset.
