Construction Accounting | Job Costing | Procore & Financial Systems
I help contractors and construction companies get clear visibility into their financials — from day-to-day accounting to job costing, reporting, and full financial system structure. This is not basic bookkeeping — I design and implement financial systems built specifically for construction. With 18+ years in construction (Sub, GC, developer, field, and operations), I understand how projects actually run — and where money is made or lost. Whether you need clean books, job-level profitability tracking, or a complete financial system overhaul, I can step in and structure it correctly. 🔧 WHAT I CAN HELP WITH 🟦 Construction Accounting & Financial Management • Full-cycle accounting (AP / AR / reconciliations) • Job costing (project, phase, cost code level) • Budget vs actual tracking • Project profitability visibility • WIP-style reporting (revenue earned vs billed) • Financial reporting (P&L, cash flow, job-level performance) 🟩 Setup, Cleanup & Optimization • QuickBooks / accounting system setup & restructuring • Cleanup of messy or duplicated data • Chart of accounts & cost code alignment • Project / class / location tracking • System optimization for construction workflows 🟧 Financial Systems & Workflow Design • Estimate → invoice → cost tracking flow • Vendor & subcontractor cost tracking • Payroll & labor tracking integration • AP automation (Dext, Hubdoc, etc.) • Reporting dashboards & financial visibility systems 🏆 CERTIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE • QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor Gold • QuickBooks Enterprise Suite Certified • Procore Certified (Admin, Financial Management & Project Management) • 18+ years construction & real estate experience • GC / field / operations background ⚙️ SYSTEMS & PLATFORMS Accounting & Financial Systems • QuickBooks Online / Enterprise • Sage (various versions) • Xero • Wave Construction & Operations Platforms • Procore • Buildertrend • Autodesk Construction Cloud • Hyphen Solutions • Jobber Integrations & Reporting • Dext / Hubdoc • Smartsheet / Monday • Custom reporting dashboards & workflows WHY CLIENTS WORK WITH ME I come from construction — not just accounting. That means: • Systems built for real job workflows • Financials aligned with field operations • Ability to bridge field + office • Focus on structure, not just data entry You’re not hiring a bookkeeper — you’re hiring someone who understands how construction projects actually make (or lose) money. If your financials don’t give you clear visibility into your jobs, it’s time to fix the structure behind them. Send over your current setup or scope, and I’ll outline the best path forward.
