At Jackson, we invest in you. Not just your skills, but your growth and your goals. You will have the support to push limits, the encouragement to innovate, and the trust to take ownership.

As a Controller , you will play a key role in the financial health and long-term success of Jackson. You will lead the accounting team, oversee the accuracy and integrity of financial reporting, and serve as a trusted resource to project teams and leadership. From job costing and WIP reporting to cash flow, internal controls, and financial analysis, you will help ensure our financial information is accurate, timely, and meaningful.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, asks the right questions, and takes pride in getting the details right. Someone who can see beyond the numbers, build strong relationships with project teams, identify opportunities to improve processes, and confidently take ownership of the financial responsibilities that support a growing construction company.
