About The Role

The Project Accountant provides financial ownership and support at the project level and serves as the primary connection between Operations and Finance.

Working closely with Project Managers, Operations team and Finance leadership, you will be responsible for validating and reporting financial information.

Support project profitability analysis.

Holdback / Retainage Management

Maintain project-level holdback/retainage schedules.
Track contractual and statutory requirements applicable to each project.
Track certificate dates and applicable release deadlines.
Track lien/claim deadlines.
Track required statutory declarations, WCB clearances, lien documentation and other release requirements.
Proactively follow up with customers/GCs regarding outstanding holdbacks.
Reconcile holdback balances.
Monitor expected release dates and actual receipts.
Escalate overdue, disputed or high-risk holdbacks.
Coordinate final holdback release and project closeout.

Project Closeout

Monitor outstanding project requirements.
Ensure final billing is completed.
Track outstanding holdbacks and receivables.
Coordinate required closeout documentation.
Confirm project financial records are complete.

Decision-Making Authority

Manage project financial administration within established policies.
Request missing project documentation.
Follow up with customers/GCs regarding billing and holdbacks.
Escalate project financial risks and disputes.
Recommend corrections to project financial information.
Accounting treatment and material accounting decisions remain with the Controller. Material financial risks and cash-flow implications are escalated to the CFO / Finance Director.

Qualifications And Experience

Required Qualifications
