About this role

Fulcrum Construction is looking for a Project Accountant to manage the financial operations across its construction projects in Atlanta. You'll handle the full cycle of accounts payable and receivable—processing subcontractor invoices and pay requests, verifying documentation, generating AIA billings, and ensuring payments align with contract terms. Close collaboration with Project Managers and Project Administrators will be central to the role, as you'll keep them informed of project financial issues and distribute job cost reports regularly.

The position requires at least two years of accounting experience in a construction environment, ideally in AP or AR. You'll need solid bookkeeping fundamentals (typically demonstrated through a degree in accounting or finance or equivalent work experience), proficiency in Excel and Outlook, and the ability to investigate and solve accounting problems independently. Experience with Timberline or Sage software is a plus but not required. Strong communication skills matter here, since you'll be relaying financial information to both internal teams and external parties like vendors and owners.

Fulcrum offers a competitive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage, a 401(k) with 4% company match, three weeks of PTO to start, paid holidays, tuition assistance, and an annual bonus. The hybrid arrangement lets you split time between the office and home. The salary range is $60,000 to $75,000.
