Job Description Job Description Construction Bookkeeper
Location: Fleming Island, FL - Onsite
Compensation: $65,000 - $85,000, depending on experience
Schedule: Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM-4:30 PM
Industry: Construction
The Opportunity
We are a growing, family-owned and operated commercial construction company looking for an experienced Construction Bookkeeper to become a key member of our team. This is not a narrowly defined accounting role. We are looking for someone who enjoys wearing many hats, taking ownership, and being the go-to person for the day-to-day accounting and bookkeeping functions of a business.
If you enjoy being a big fish in a small pond, having visibility into the entire business, and working alongside a collaborative and personable leadership team, this could be a great fit. The right person will be polished, dependable, adaptable, and comfortable working in a smaller organization where everyone pitches in. You should be equally comfortable owning your responsibilities independently and collaborating closely with leadership and the broader team.
What You'll Do
You will take ownership of the company's day-to-day bookkeeping and accounting functions, including:
Manage full-cycle bookkeeping using QuickBooks Online
Process and manage payroll for 50 employees
Prepare and manage monthly AIA billing for commercial construction projects
Perform job costing and maintain accurate project financial records
Complete account and bank reconciliations
Manage invoicing, accounts receivable, and accounts payable functions
Maintain accurate and organized financial records in QuickBooks
Manage lien waivers and supporting project documentation
Track financial activity across multiple active construction projects
Assist with month-end and year-end accounting activities
Organize historical accounting information and maintain clean, reliable financial records
Partner closely with leadership and assist with additional accounting, administrative, and operational needs as they arise
What We're Looking For
Construction industry experience is required. This person needs to understand the nuances of accounting and billing within a project-based construction environment.
The ideal candidate will have:
3+ years of bookkeeping/accounting experience
Previous experience within the construction industry
Strong hands-on experience with QuickBooks
AIA billing experience
Strong understanding of job costing
Payroll processing experience
Experience with full-cycle bookkeeping and account reconciliations
Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
Ability to independently manage multiple priorities and deadlines
A polished, professional, and personable communication style
A flexible, adaptable mindset and willingness to wear multiple hats
Most importantly, we're looking for someone who takes pride in their work, enjoys being relied upon, and wants to become an important part of a smaller organization rather than simply being one person within a large accounting department.
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive Salary: Up to $85,000 , depending on experience
Performance Bonuses: Mid-year and year-end bonuses based on performance
Medical Insurance: 3 plan options - HMO and PPO options - eligible after 30 days
Dental & Vision
Life Insurance: $5,000 in coverage
PTO: 2 weeks
Paid Holidays: Christmas, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, Easter, New Year's, Memorial Day, and Labor Day
Work-Life Balance
Why Join Us?
You'll be joining a family-owned and operated company with a collaborative, down-to-earth culture. This is a smaller environment where leadership is accessible, people genuinely work together, and strong performers are trusted to take ownership.
For someone who enjoys wearing many hats, this is an opportunity to become a big fish in a small pond - taking ownership of a critical function, working closely with company leadership, and making a visible impact on the organization.
We look forward to your application!
