Job description

Our recruiting firm is representing a well-established, privately held construction company in North Central Washington and seeks a hands‑on Controller / Office Manager to become a trusted financial and operational partner. This is a high‑impact, fully on‑site role for someone who enjoys broad ownership, direct visibility to leadership, and the chance to improve accounting, job costing, payroll, office systems, and day‑to‑day business operations in a respected regional construction firm.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Work directly with ownership, project managers, administrative staff, and field leadership.
• Own a highly visible mix of accounting, bookkeeping, payroll, job cost accounting, HR administration, and office operations.
• Support a stable, relationship‑driven construction business with a diverse portfolio of commercial, industrial, medical, agricultural, public, nonprofit, and residential projects.
• Make a meaningful impact in a close‑knit environment where accuracy, initiative, discretion, and teamwork matter.

What You’ll Do

• Manage hands‑on bookkeeping, accounting, payroll, billing, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and financial reporting support.
• Oversee job cost accounting, project financial tracking, cash flow support, compliance, and construction accounting processes.
• Use construction accounting software and advanced Excel to support reporting, analysis, and operational decision‑making.
• Partner with ownership and project teams on budgets, profitability, vendor payments, contracts, change orders, and administrative workflows.
• Support HR‑related administration, employment records, office processes, and general business operations.

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of accounting, bookkeeping, payroll, financial management, or construction accounting experience.
• Strong hands‑on accounting skills, preferably within construction, general contracting, subcontracting, or another project‑based business.
• Experience with job costing, payroll, compliance, and construction accounting software beyond QuickBooks.
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills and strong attention to detail.
• Professional, discreet, self‑directed, organized, upbeat, and able to work well with owners, project managers, staff, vendors, and clients.
• Ability to work fully on‑site in the Cashmere, Washington area.
• Legal authorization to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship.

Nice to Have

• CPA or CMA designation.
• Experience with construction contracts, bonding, retainage, lien waivers, insurance certificates, progress billings, and change orders.
• Experience supporting project managers with budget tracking, cost‑to‑complete reporting, and project profitability analysis.
• Experience coordinating year‑end close with an outside CPA firm or supporting 401(k) administration.

The Fit

This role is ideal for a practical, reliable accounting and office operations professional who likes variety, takes ownership, and wants to be a key part of a small, established construction business. The right person will bring strong technical accounting ability, sound judgment, confidentiality, and a positive team‑oriented presence.
