A U.S.

-based, vertically integrated real estate development group. The group includes an in-house general contractor, precast concrete and steel fabrication plants, and development companies. The group’s assets exceed $1 billion and continue to grow.

Our core business is turnkey construction of industrial and warehouse facilities.

We are looking for a strong Cost Control Manager who treats the company’s budget as their own. Your main goal is to stop unauthorized spending and over payments while building clear, transparent and timely settlements with contractors. The position reports to the Head of Finance.

If you can see the real processes on site behind the numbers and are used to keeping the budget fully under control, this role is for you.

• Control settlements with contractors: review invoices, certificates of completed work and compliance with contract terms.
• Prepare and approve payment registers daily.
• Reconcile financial documentation against actual work progress before payments are approved.
• Perform budget-vs-actual analysis of expenses, monitor compliance with spending limits, and prevent cash gaps and cost overruns.
• Review and approve contracts and supporting documentation; support procurement procedures.
• Participate in budgeting and cost forecasting; prepare reports.

• C1-level English (strictly required): fluent command of the language for working with documentation and day-to-day communication.
• 3+ years of successful experience in a similar role in construction.
• Understanding of construction work acceptance processes and supporting documentation requirements.
• Excellent budget-vs-actual analysis skills and a deep understanding of budgeting fundamentals.
• A fast pace of work and a healthy obsession with detail — the ability to spot what others miss.

• Work under a services agreement with a U.S. company.
• Compensation from $2,700 to $3,500 per month. The exact amount is determined based on the interview.
• Full-time: we expect you to be available 8 working hours a day, 5 days a week.
• Fully remote work from anywhere in the world. Preferred time zones are GMT+3 or GMT−5: your working day needs to overlap with both our New York office and our remote team in GMT+3.
