CONSTRUCTION BOOKKEEPING CONSULTANT (QUICKBOOKS + JOB COSTING) — ADVISORY & HANDS-ON We're an early stage software company building out our bookkeeping function for construction clients and want to do it right from day one. We're looking for an experienced construction bookkeeper to act as our consultant — teaching us how to do this well while also doing some of the actual bookkeeping alongside us. This is a short, focused engagement: equal parts mentorship and execution. We want to walk away knowing how a great construction bookkeeper thinks, with real books in good shape. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Advise us on how to set up and run construction bookkeeping the right way — chart of accounts, workflows, month-end close, and what "good" looks like - Walk us through the construction-specific pieces: job costing, WIP schedules, over/under billing, retainage, change orders, and progress/AIA-style billing - Do hands-on bookkeeping with us on live or sample data so we learn by doing - Flag the common mistakes new construction bookkeepers make - Help us build repeatable processes and checklists WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR You've actually done bookkeeping for construction clients — GCs, subs, or specialty trades — not just general small-business bookkeeping. Additionally: - Strong command of construction accounting: job costing, WIP, percentage-of-completion, retainage, and progress billing - Fluent in QuickBooks (Online and/or Desktop); construction-specific tools (Foundation, Sage 100 Contractor, Buildertrend, etc.) a plus - Comfortable teaching and explaining your reasoning, not just working heads-down - Have set up bookkeeping systems from scratch for a new client or firm - Clear communicator who can work with us in real time NICE TO HAVE - Certified/prevailing-wage payroll, lien waivers, or COI tracking - Construction loan draws or AIA G702/G703 billing ENGAGEMENT DETAILS - Around 5 hours per week to start - $60–$85/hr depending on experience - Possibility of ongoing work if it's a good fit - Collaborative (screen-share / calls) — hands-on, not async-only
