  • Understand major business components and implications specific to accounting for construction companies.
  • Ensure compliance with external contract terms and internal company policies and procedures.
  • Run analytics and create ad hoc reports for projects and divisions to identify risks, concerns, and potential outcomes of decisions.
  • Evaluate results and variances, identifying trends and areas for improvement while reconciling discrepancies by comparing and correcting data.
  • Provide information to management by assembling and summarizing data, preparing reports, and presenting findings and analyses.
  • Increase productivity by improving processes, eliminating duplicate efforts, and communicating changes effectively.
  • Close out project financials and accounts upon project completion.
  • Support senior analysts and managers in data analysis and risk reviews.
Here’s What We’re Looking For
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related discipline.
  • 3–5 years of related work experience as an analyst in a financial capacity.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office with advanced Excel skills.
  • Problem-solving and critical thinking skills, with the ability to work independently.
  • Highly organized and detail-oriented with strong written and verbal communication skills, maintaining confidentiality and professionalism.
  • Collaborative team player who enjoys building relationships and supporting others.
  • Demonstrate and uphold Power Design’s core values, which include integrity, accountability, teamwork, innovation, and growth.
