About the Role We are seeking a Senior Accountant with the ability to thrive in a complex, project-based environment.
This role is hands-on and highly impactful: you will own both general accounting and the discipline of project accounting in a fast-paced setting where data is incomplete, processes are evolving, and commercial teams rely heavily on finance to bring clarity. This is not a standard reporting role. It requires someone who can roll up their sleeves, chase down information, and make sense of messy inputs to deliver clear, accurate financials.
What You'll Do:
Lead month-end accounting: accruals, reconciliations, and journal entries.
Own project accounting from start to finish, including: Allocating costs across shared equipment and labor. Reconciling mobilization/demobilization costs.
Ensuring accurate revenue recognition tied to project completion.
Partner closely with AP and commercial teams to ensure timely, accurate data flow. Improve use of Business Central for project/job tracking and reporting.
Produce reporting that stands up to private equity-level scrutiny on margins and project profitability.
What You Must Have:
CPA designation (or CPA-track) with strong general accounting foundation.
Proven experience in project-based industries (construction, engineering, marine, industrial services, utilities). Expertise in Microsoft Business Central or similar ERP platforms.
Hands-on, proactive approach: able to chase data, solve problems, and not wait for perfect inputs. Strong resilience and adaptability; thrives in changing, high-demand environments.
Business-oriented mindset: able to link accounting to operational realities.
What is Nice to Have:
Prior experience in marine, logistics, or large-scale industrial projects.
Exposure to private equity-owned businesses.
Process improvement mindset: ability to bring structure and discipline into unstructured environments.
