Construction Accountant

About Us
Bean Countery is a U.S.-based accounting and advisory firm that works specifically with residential construction companies (roofers, remodelers, contractors).

We are not a traditional bookkeeping firm.

We help business owners:
- understand their numbers
- improve profitability
- gain control over their cash flow

Our work is structured, detail-driven, and high-trust. We value accuracy, ownership, and clear communication.

The Role
We are looking for a Construction Accountant to support our growing client base.

This role is not just data entry.

You will be responsible for helping ensure that client financials are:
- accurate
- complete
- ready for monthly close

What You’ll Do
- Review and clean up weekly transaction coding
- Ensure bank and credit card activity is complete
- Assist with monthly reconciliations

Growth Path

Phase 3 – Construction Accountant: Own a set of clients and close books by the 10th

What Success Looks Like
- Transactions are clean and complete each week

- You rely on guesswork instead of clarity

This Role IS a Fit If
- You are highly detail-oriented
- You take ownership of your work
- You double-check before marking something complete
- You communicate clearly and proactively
- You want to grow into a higher-level accounting role

Requirements

- Strong understanding of basic accounting principles
- Experience with reconciliations preferred
- High attention to detail
- Strong written English communication
- Ability to follow structured processes

Schedule & Compensation
- Remote
- Part-time to start (15–25 hours/week)
- Opportunity to grow
- Compensation based on experience and performance

Hiring Process
1. Initial interview
2. Paid test project
3. Final interview

We prioritize accuracy, ownership, and consistency over speed.
