Our client is looking for a Project Accountant to join our finance team in downtown Toronto. Reporting directly to the Project Accounting Team Lead and working alongside a collaborative team of four project accountants, you will oversee the financial administration and health of approximately 40 to 45 active projects.
This role serves as a vital financial bridge between Project Managers, leadership, and external stakeholders. It offers immediate ownership of project portfolios with full training provided on our internal ERP systems.
Key Responsibilities- Monitor and maintain the ongoing financial health of a dedicated portfolio of 40–45 concurrent design and architectural projects.

- Oversee project-based invoicing, progress billings, cost tracking, fee reconciliations, and financial documentation.
- Meet regularly with Project Managers to review project performance, budget variances, billing schedules, and unbilled work.
- Manage clear, concise written and verbal communications with internal project teams, senior leadership, sub-consultants, and client representatives regarding financial matters.
- Ensure accuracy in project revenue recognition, fee schedules, and monthly financial closes.
- 2 years of hands-on project accounting experience within architectural, engineering, construction, or other project-based professional service environments.
- Direct experience with project-based financial concepts, including revenue tracking, fee breakdowns, consultant cost tracking, and billing cycles.
- Advanced Microsoft Excel skills (VLOOKUPs, Pivot Tables, dataset manipulation, and financial modeling).
- Prior experience using BST Global or equivalent project management ERP software is strong asset (training will be provided for candidate adaptability).
- Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with the ability to articulate financial details to non-finance project leads and external clients.
