  • Assemble client billing packages in accordance with approval procedures and processes to ensure client is in receipt of billings on a timely basis and payments are received as per contract terms and conditions
  • Maintain accurate and timely cash flow data, both current and forecasted as compared to projected cash flow assumed in financial model (as applicable to the project)
  • Assist the Project Manager in preparing monthly reports for owner/consultant and internal reporting

Is this the right role for you?

  • You have post-secondary education in Business Administration/Finance along with 3-6 years of relevant accounting experience, or an equivalent combination of technical training and experience.
  • You have the ability to correctly identify financial situations and produce logical solutions to support a project team/business area
  • You demonstrate strong organizational, interpersonal, communication, problem solving, and analytical skills as well as a keen willingness to work independently and on-site at project locations.
