Job summary

ADP Lemco, Inc. is seeking a detail-oriented Project Accountant to join our stable team in Draper, Utah. This full-time, in-office role requires meticulous work with linked QuickBooks transactions, and strong ability to reconcile dates, numbers, and classes across records.

You'll handle 1099 installer bills, material and supplier invoices, AP tasks, and monthly pay applications, while maintaining complete backups and ensuring accuracy from day one.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of accounting or full-charge bookkeeping experience, with accounts payable exposure.
• Strong QuickBooks and Excel skills (a must); QuickBooks Enterprise experience preferred
• Exceptional attention to detail and the discipline to follow precise, multi-step procedures without shortcuts
• Sound judgment: when an amount doesn't match, you investigate and resolve it rather than push it through
• Construction industry experience — pay applications, lien waivers, job costing, or retention — strongly preferred, but we will train a sharp, careful accountant who learns quickly
• Comfortable communicating with project managers, general contractors, and outside vendors
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Business preferred but not required

Responsibilities

• Process recurring 1099 installer bills (approximately 60 per month) through QuickBooks Enterprise's linked transaction workflow
• Enter material and supplier bills through the same linked PO Item Receipt Bill process
• General accounts payable: vendor bills, credit memos, and payment processing
• Prepare and submit monthly Pay Applications (AIA G702/G703 and GC-specific formats), including Schedule of Values setup
• Review incoming construction contracts against our Sales Orders: verify scope and exclusions, coordinate insurance certificates with our broker
• Maintain complete backup documentation — attaching invoices and receipts in QuickBooks and keeping job folders current
