Project Accountant
PROJECT ACCOUNTANT
Salary: $70,000–$80,000+ annual bonus | Full-Time | Onsite | Pittsburgh Area
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
This is a standout opportunity for a Project Accountant who wants visibility, stability, and real ownership in a growing organization—not just another accounting seat.
Our client is a well-established, multi-entity organization in a sustained growth phase, bringing this role back after recognizing how critical strong project accounting is to operational success. You will work directly with project managers and accounting leadership, becoming a key financial partner to the business.
Why this role attracts high-quality Project Accountants:
Business-facing role – Partner closely with project managers, not buried in back-office accounting
True job-cost ownership – From setup through forecasting, billing, and WIP reporting
Growth environment – Company is expanding and reinvesting in key accounting talent
Low turnover culture – Long-tenured shared services team and stable leadership
Excellent benefits – Medical, dental, and vision premiums 100% paid by employer
Clear long-term runway – Potential to grow into a Senior Project Accountant seat
Hands-on, visible work – Your analysis directly impacts project performance and decision-making
This is an ideal role for someone who enjoys connecting financial data to real-world project outcomes.
Key Responsibilities:
Partner with project managers to ensure accurate job setup, cost coding, and cost structure
Analyze job costs, committed costs, projections, and forecasts
Prepare WIP reporting and percent-complete revenue calculations
Support project billing, including T&M, progress billing, and AIA formats
Review contracts, change orders, and provide financial cost summaries
Qualifications:
2–5 years of project or job-cost accounting experience
Construction or industrial project accounting background preferred
Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUP) and project accounting system experience
