Phoenix, AZ | Hybrid | Direct Hire | $90,000–$110,000

We're building out the accounting team for a growing, multi-entity organization and are looking for a Senior Accountant to join us in the Phoenix, AZ area. This is a hybrid, direct-hire opportunity with a nationally established company that has 20+ locations across the U.S. and real room to grow.

The ideal candidate brings accounting experience from construction, facilities, contracting, HVAC, or a related industry, including hands-on work with WIP. In this role, you'll own key pieces of the monthly close, deliver accurate and timely financial reporting, partner with leaders across the business, and help maintain a strong control environment in a fast-moving, multi-entity setting. The company offers a collaborative, people-oriented culture and meaningful opportunities for professional development.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Prepare and post monthly journal entries, including allocations, accruals, prepaids, and adjustments to the general ledger.
  • Drive accurate monthly, quarterly, and year-end close cycles, including support for financial statement preparation.
  • Analyze and reconcile balance sheet accounts; investigate and resolve variances.
  • Handle revenue and cost recognition for work-in-process (WIP) projects, including reconciliations, journal entries, and coordination with project managers, estimators, and operations.
  • Maintain fixed asset, capital lease, and intangible asset schedules, including recording, depreciation, and reconciliations.
  • Process payroll-related journal entries and perform related reconciliations.
  • Work with shared services functions (AP, cash applications, etc.) to verify transactions, reconcile subledgers, and ensure accurate GL posting.
  • Review monthly P&L activity to confirm appropriate accruals, deferrals, and expense recognition.
  • Perform monthly financial analysis to surface trends, risks, and opportunities for cost savings or performance improvement.
  • Partner with operations and project teams to provide financial insight that supports decision-making.
  • Support external auditors during the annual audit by preparing schedules and responding to requests.
  • Ensure ongoing compliance with GAAP, relevant regulations, and internal policies.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • Minimum 5 years of progressive accounting experience; A background in a multi-entity, project-based, service, construction, or mechanical/trades environment is strongly preferred.
  • Advanced proficiency with mid-market ERP/accounting systems (Sage Intacct experience is a plus) and Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs/XLOOKUPs, data modeling).
  • Strong reconciliation skills with the ability to work through backlog independently
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, multi-entity environment with shifting priorities
