The Staff Accountant plays a critical role in supporting Alt Construction's financial health and operational clarity. This position is responsible for day-to-day accounting activities while partnering closely with the CFO, project managers, and leadership to ensure accurate financial reporting, strong internal controls, and clear visibility into job costs and performance.

- Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting
- Partner with the CFO on audits, tax preparation, and compliance requirements
- Maintain organized financial records and documentation
- Identify opportunities to improve accounting processes, controls, and efficiency as the company grows
Qualifications

- 5 years of accounting experience; construction or project-based accounting experience strongly preferred
- Working knowledge of GAAP
- Experience with accounting software (QuickBooks required; construction-specific systems a plus)
- Strong Excel skills and comfort working with financial data
- High attention to detail, accuracy, and organization
- Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
- Collaborative mindset with the ability to communicate effectively across teams
Why Join Alt Construction

- Family-friendly, faith-based culture that values life outside of work
- Competitive compensation aligned with experience
- health reimbursement program
- 401k with company match
