About the Role
We’re looking for a detail-oriented and proactive Project accountant to support the financial performance and governance of our projects. This role sits at the intersection of finance and project management — ensuring that every project is planned, tracked, and reported accurately from initiation to completion.
You’ll work closely with project managers, accountants, and finance leaders to monitor budgets, forecasts, costs, and billings while ensuring alignment between project execution and financial health.
Key Responsibilities
- Partner with Project Managers and Finance teams to develop, maintain, and monitor project financial structures, including budgets, forecasts, work breakdowns (WBS), and billing plans.
- Track project performance by comparing actual costs and revenues against budgets and forecasts, identifying variances, root causes, and trends, and recommending corrective actions.
- Support the preparation and review of cost estimates and forecasts for all project phases, ensuring alignment with contractual and delivery objectives.
- Monitor key project performance indicators (KPIs) for cost, schedule, resource utilization, risk, and change control.
- Coordinate and validate project billing activities, ensuring invoices are accurate, timely, and aligned with milestones, progress updates, or contract terms.
- Ensure commercial and financial compliance, including change order management, supplier/subcontractor cost control, and adherence to internal accounting policies.
- Provide clear and concise financial reports, forecasts, and dashboards to management and stakeholders, summarizing key insights on cost, revenue, and performance.
- Identify, quantify, and escalate financial risks and opportunities, and support the development of mitigation or optimization plans.
- Collaborate with project teams to ensure schedules, resource plans, and deliverables remain aligned with financial targets.
- Contribute to continuous improvement by maintaining and enhancing project financial control processes, tools, and best practices.
- At project close-out, review financial performance, reconcile costs, document lessons learned, and archive control records.
