Project Accountant

Overview

Our client, a well-established construction company based in Burnaby, is seeking a motivated Project Accountant to join their growing finance team. This is an excellent opportunity for an accounting professional looking to develop their career within a collaborative and supportive environment, with exposure to project accounting, financial analysis and business partnering.

Reporting to the Controller, you'll initially support day-to-day accounting activities before progressing into project accounting, budgeting and financial reporting responsibilities as you become established within the team.

What You'll Do

  • Process accounts payable and accounts receivable while ensuring accuracy and timely completion of daily accounting activities.
  • Support project accounting, including project cost tracking, reconciliations, budgeting and financial reporting.
  • Assist with month-end close, journal entries, account reconciliations and financial statement preparation.
  • Work closely with operational teams to provide financial insights that help drive project performance and support business decision-making.
  • Identify opportunities to improve processes and contribute to a collaborative, high-performing finance team.

Qualifications

  • 2+ years of accounting experience, ideally within construction, project-based or related industries.
  • Strong communication skills with the confidence to build relationships across finance and operations.
  • Self-motivated, adaptable and able to work independently with minimal supervision while following established processes.
  • Experience using Acumatica ERP is highly desirable.
  • CPA designation (or progress toward one), cross-border (Canada/U.S.) accounting experience or PCP certification are considered assets but are not required.

What's In It For You

  • Competitive salary of $60,000–$70,000, depending on experience, plus comprehensive benefits.
  • Opportunity to develop into a Project Accountant with exposure to budgeting, FP&A and project financial analysis.
  • Work directly with an experienced Controller in a role offering genuine career progression and increased responsibility.
  • Free on-site parking and convenient access to public transit.
  • Join a supportive, collaborative team where your ideas are valued and your work can make a meaningful impact on the business.
