Reporting directly to the CFO, and directly supervising the AP and AR team, the Controller serves as an integral leader in the Accounting & Finance function.

This role owns the full integrity, accuracy, and strategic usefulness of the company’s financial operations, reporting, internal controls, and systems.

You will set the standard for financial discipline across a labor-intensive, multi-division services and construction business. This includes progress and milestone billing, change orders, complex multi-contract management, job costing, WIP schedules, over/under billing, retainage, and multi-state operations. You will lead the continued maturation of Quickbase as the company’s primary operational and financial platform, drive divisional profitability insight, and build a high-performing accounting team that delivers timely, reliable information to leadership.

This is a hands‑on leadership role requiring both deep technical accounting expertise and the ability to operate at a strategic level with the Executive Leadership Team. You will own the financial health of the organization and be accountable for turning data into clear, actionable guidance that supports growth and operational excellence.
