This role is primarily focused on project accounting administration, working heavily within internal systems to manage project setup, track expenses, and support billing processes.

- Add employees and resources to projects based on internal requests
- Review and monitor project expenses for accuracy and completeness
- Create and distribute purchase orders (POs) for project-related spend
- Monitor, manage and respond to requests through a shared team inbox
- Collaborate with internal stakeholders to ensure timely processing of project-related transactions
- Follow up on bill payments and inquiries via email; elevate issues to corporate when necessary
- Assist with invoicing processes after completing onboarding/training in project accounting workflows
- Basic understanding of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
- Experience with Quick Books or similar accounting software
- Strong attention to detail and ability to manage high-volume, error-sensitive work
- Ability to multitask and prioritize effectively, especially during peak periods (Mondays & Fridays)
- Comfortable working in a shared inbox environment with frequent email communication
- Strong organizational and follow-up skills
- Exposure to project accounting concepts
- Experience with ERP systems (e.g., SAP, P21, or similar)
- Previous experience supporting multiple projects or stakeholders
- Join a team of 4 (this will be the 5th member)
- Highly collaborative, fast-paced environment
- Significant training provided on internal systems and project accounting processes
- Heavy workflow at the start and end of each week—strong time management is key
