Controller

Controller | Construction

Our client is a well-established, multi-provincial construction company headquartered in Southeast Calgary, with operations across Canada.

They are looking for a Controller to own the general ledger, month-end close, ASPE financial reporting, and the internal control environment.

Reporting to the CFO and leading a team of three, you will inherit a largely manual environment and be trusted to build what it needs: a close

calendar, reconciliation discipline, and a control framework that scales with the business.

On the construction side, you will own the job cost structure, prepare monthly WIP schedules and percentage-of-completion calculations,

and review estimate-at-completion with Project Managers. You will report margin movement by contract to senior leadership, and serve as

internal project owner for payroll, field time capture, and the system implementations planned over the next eighteen months.

To succeed, you are a process-focused self-starter who takes ownership of the full scope of the role and sees it through without prompting.

You bring sound judgement, business acumen, and the confidence to challenge assumptions while building process and discipline where little

currently exists.

To qualify, you are a CPA with five or more years of post-designation experience, including supervisory responsibility, and at least three years

in construction or project-based accounting. You have experience with percentage-of-completion revenue recognition, WIP reporting, holdback

and progress billing, multi-entity reporting, and internal control design. Prior ERP or payroll system implementation experience is strongly preferred.

For immediate consideration, please email [email protected] or call 403-264-2242.
