Job Description
Senior Project Accountant
Roselle, IL | $80,000–$100,000 | Hybrid (3 days in / 2 days WFH after training)
We’re partnering with a nationally recognized, high-growth design-build construction firm to hire a Senior Project Accountant for their expanding finance team. This company specializes in large-scale industrial projects for major national clients.
The Senior Project Accountant will support multiple high-volume projects while working closely with Project Managers and leadership. This is a visible, fast-paced role ideal for someone sharp, detail-oriented, and comfortable communicating with both internal teams and external stakeholders.
What You’ll Do
Manage 8–10 active construction projects simultaneously
Enter billing into third-party electronic systems
Set up billing schedules and construction draws
Initiate and track change orders
Partner with Project Managers through project completion and closeout
What We’re Looking For
4–8 years of project accounting experience within construction (GC or high-volume subcontractor preferred)
Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (or Associate’s with strong experience)
Solid understanding of construction accounting principles
Strong communication skills and ability to manage multiple deadlines
This Senior Project Accountant opportunity offers strong exposure to large, complex projects and direct access to a supportive Director of Finance who is actively growing her team. The ideal Senior Project Accountant will thrive in a collaborative, high-growth environment where initiative and performance are recognized.
Why This Role Stands Out
Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP)
High-growth company with major national clients
Career development and internal growth opportunities
Flexible start times and hybrid schedule after 90-day training period
Modern office environment with great team culture
If you’re a driven Senior Project Accountant looking to grow your career in a billion-dollar construction organization, this is an outstanding opportunity to step into a high-impact role!
