Established Chicagoland General Contractor | Local Projects | Long-Term Growth Opportunity

We're partnered with a well-established General Contractor in the Chicagoland area that is looking to add a Construction Accountant to their growing team.

This company has built a strong reputation through decades of successful project delivery, long-term client relationships, and a commitment to quality construction. With a strong presence throughout Chicagoland, they continue to maintain a consistent backlog of work across a variety of markets.

Unlike a traditional accounting role, this position will work closely with project teams and operations, playing a key role in managing the financial performance of active construction projects from start to finish.

Their portfolio includes a diverse mix of commercial, industrial, interiors, and other construction projects throughout the Chicago market, giving this role exposure to a wide range of project types and teams.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Manage project financials from project startup through closeout
• Track budgets, committed costs, change orders, and project expenditures
• Review subcontractor invoices, payment applications, and lien waivers
• Assist with monthly financial reporting, forecasting, and cost analysis
• Partner with Project Managers and operations teams on project financials
• Monitor job profitability and identify potential cost issues
• Support accurate project billing and accounting processes

What They're Looking For:

• 5+ years of Construction Accounting or Project Accounting experience
• Experience working within the construction industry preferred
• Strong understanding of job costing, project financials, and reporting
• Detail-oriented professional with strong communication skills
• Ability to collaborate with both accounting and project teams

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Located in Elmhurst, IL
• Stable Chicagoland contractor with a strong reputation
• Close partnership with project teams and leadership
• Opportunity to make a direct impact on project financial performance
• Long-term growth opportunity within the organization
• Competitive base salary up to 100k + bonus potential
• Long-term career growth opportunities

This is a great opportunity for a Construction Accountant looking to join a stable, collaborative organization where they can take ownership of project financials and continue growing their career.
