- Maintain project budgets, reconcile, and investigate variances; provide accounting with the information needed for project invoicing and ensure proper sign-offs before payment processing
- Review, update, and draft Standard Operating Procedures and templates, and contribute to workflow improvements as LEDPAX continues to scale
- Travel to job sites, client meetings, contractors, and vendors approximately 1% of the time, occasionally including overnight stays
