Original job description

A growing, project-based services company is seeking a Staff Accountant to join a lean, highly visible finance team. This is a unique opportunity to work directly with an experienced CFO in a true right-hand capacity within a two-person accounting team.

This role offers broad exposure across the accounting function and is ideal for someone who enjoys owning both day-to-day accounting and more strategic finance support. The Staff Accountant will be involved in full-cycle accounting, including transactional work as well as project-focused financial responsibilities. This position is perfect for someone who wants to learn the business from the ground up, make an impact, and grow over time.

Responsibilities include:

  • Full-cycle accounting support from transaction processing through month-end close
  • Accounts payable and accounts receivable
  • Project billing, invoicing, and customer payment tracking
  • Job costing and project-level financial analysis
  • Bank and account reconciliations
  • Assisting with cash management and daily cash visibility
  • Supporting month-end and year-end processes
  • Maintaining accurate financial records and improving accounting workflows
  • Partnering closely with leadership on ad hoc reporting and operational needs
  • Assisting with additional administrative and business-related functions as needed

Why this role stands out:

  • Direct mentorship from the CFO
  • High visibility and meaningful exposure to the full business
  • Opportunity to be involved in both accounting and operational finance
  • Broad responsibilities with strong growth potential
  • Chance to make a real impact in a small, collaborative environment

If you bring the qualified experience, have a high attention to detail and accountability, and are interested, please apply immediately and send your resume to Tracy Kaszuba on LinkedIn or to tracy.kaszuba at roberthalf.

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field preferred
  • 2+ years of accounting experience
  • Experience with AP, AR, reconciliations, and general ledger activity
  • Exposure to project billing, job costing, construction, contracting, or other project-based environments is a plus
  • Self-starter comfortable working in a small team environment
  • Strong attention to detail and willingness to take ownership
  • Ability to adapt, prioritize, and wear multiple hats
