Our approach

Billing, cost and documentation

Search conversations cover subcontractor invoices, owner billing, purchase orders, commitments, cost coding, reconciliations and project closeout. We match experience with the employer's accounting methods and systems, while distinguishing project accounting from company-wide Controller responsibilities.

Good questions

Frequently asked questions.

What does a construction Project Accountant do?

Responsibilities commonly include project billing, job cost support, payables, receivables and financial documentation. We confirm the specific duties, project assignments and reporting relationships with each employer.

How do you evaluate project accounting candidates?

We discuss construction accounting processes, project transactions, systems, accuracy and collaboration with project teams. Candidate experience is compared with the employer's accounting structure.

Is a Project Accountant the same as a Controller?

No. A Project Accountant generally supports financial administration for projects, while a Controller leads broader accounting processes and controls. We clarify the actual scope of each opening.

Can you recruit Project Accountants for traveling assignments?

Relocation and travel

Location is part of the search.

We look locally first and discuss whether relocation or travel makes sense. A traveling superintendent's rotation, a PM's family move and a local commute are different decisions. We cover relocation help, per diem and timing before you meet anyone, not at the offer.

How long is the candidate replacement guarantee?

We offer a candidate replacement guarantee on standard search agreements. The applicable period and exact terms are set out in the signed client recruiting agreement.

Eligibility, exclusions, notification requirements, payment requirements, and replacement terms are governed by the signed client recruiting agreement.
