Job Description
You're the kind of person who can't leave a number alone until it makes sense, and you don't let the admin side of the day slide just because it's less exciting than the financial side. You keep schedules, deliveries, and the books all moving at once, and nothing falls through the cracks on your watch. About the Role We're a small team, doing high-end building and remodeling projects, mostly on Bainbridge Island.
This role covers real ground:
part financial (reconciliations, invoicing, job costing) and part administrative (scheduling, tracking deliveries, keeping subcontractors and surveyors on track). You'll be the person making sure the details behind the scenes are handled so the crews and PMs can focus on the build. We'll tell you more about us if this role looks interesting!Schedule:
