Controller, Accounting, Financial Compliance

We’re here because the ‘old way’ wasn’t working.

Owners need people who can ask tough questions, make sound decisions, and be willing to fight for their best interests. And that’s what we do best.

At Iskagna, we’re grounded in the belief that building strong relationships is just as important as building strong projects. We’re a Charleston-based construction and development management firm with a passion for leading with heart, honoring our commitments, and serving our clients with clarity and conviction.

Founded in 2021, Iskagna was created to bring a more thoughtful, responsive approach to the built environment—one rooted in trust, transparency, and teamwork. We guide public and private clients through the full project lifecycle, helping them navigate challenges, manage complexity, and achieve outcomes that last.

Iskagna is at an inflection point. We've built a strong foundation in Charleston, and we're now expanding across the Southeast, deepening our presence in existing sectors, and entering new ones. That growth demands a financial foundation that can scale with it — which creates real opportunity for the right candidate to build it.

You'll join a firm small enough that your contributions matter, and ambitious enough that those contributions compound. You'll design the financial systems, controls, and reporting that the next wave of hires will inherit. You'll work directly with our Managing Partner on financial strategy and business planning, and have a clear line of sight into how the business is run — and where it's going.

For someone who wants to be more than a number on an org chart, this is a rare window.

As Controller, you'll own Iskagna's financial operations — from day-to-day accounting, job costing, and cash management to financial reporting, budgeting, and audit/tax coordination. You'll partner closely with the Managing Partner on financial strategy and business planning, and build the systems and controls that support the firm's continued growth across the Southeast. The Controller reports directly to the Managing Partner.
