Controller - Paradigm Mechanical Corp. / San Diego Refrigeration
Santee, CA
· On-site · $125,000-$145,000
We're a mechanical contractor in San Diego - $18-24M in commercial and federal construction, plus a refrigeration service company we acquired two years ago. Fifteen years in, built from the ground up. Two brands, one team.
Our purpose is simple: we solve complex challenges for our clients in ways others can't or won't.
We're hiring an experienced construction controller to lead our accounting department. You'll report directly to the CEO, with payroll and HR in their own seats, so you're leading the function instead of buried in it.
You'll own:month-end close for both brands, the weekly WIP, job costing across construction and service, cash forecasting and collections, billing start to finish (including federal/WAWF), compliance, and the reporting our leadership team actually runs on.
You need:8+ years in construction accounting with 3+ as a controller or assistant controller, deep WIP and job costing experience, certified payroll and prevailing wage, advanced Excel, and experience leading a team. Federal billing, Computer Ease, CPA or CCIFP are all pluses.
We offer:$125-145K, 401(k) with profit sharing, 100% employer-paid health insurance, and generous PTO.
Our values are Attention to Detail, Go Getter, Work Hard Play Hard, and Impact - and our theme this year is All In. All Season. We're at $18-24M and we're not done. This seat grows with the company.
