Hire Finance Managers fluent in construction economics — WIP schedules and percent-complete revenue recognition, job-cost integrity, cash and backlog forecasting, month-end close, and the bank and surety reporting a contractor’s credit depends on. Construction ERP fluency verified.
A structured process for the finance manager hire — where a bad WIP schedule surfaces as a surprise, and surprises cost bonding capacity.
30-minute call. We align on revenue and backlog, the ERP in place (Sage 300 CRE, Viewpoint Vista, CMiC, Foundation), close calendar, team structure, bank and surety reporting obligations, and your start date.
Within 2 weeks we introduce 3–5 Finance Managers with verified construction finance experience at your scale. References come from the CFOs, controllers, and operations leaders they closed the books with.
Every placement carries a replacement guarantee, whichever engagement model you choose.
Percent-complete revenue under ASC 606, over/under billings, retainage, committed cost — our candidates have run WIP reviews with project teams, not just read about them. Generalist corporate finance resumes do not make the cut.
Reference-verified month-end close ownership on a real calendar, cash forecasting through payment lag and retainage cycles, and job-cost reporting operations leaders actually trust.
Verified experience producing lender covenant packages, surety reporting that protects bonding capacity, and audit support — with CPA or CCIFP credentials verified when claimed.
Verified finance leadership inside a contractor, developer, or owner organization — WIP, job cost, and retainage as daily reality.
Reference-verified WIP schedule ownership and percent-complete revenue recognition that reconciled with project-team reality.
Working command of a construction ERP — Sage 300 CRE, Viewpoint Vista, CMiC, or Foundation — plus advanced Excel and reporting tools.
Reference-verified management of accountants and analysts, and credible communication with executives, banks, sureties, and auditors.
We’ll help scope the role on the call — revenue scale, ERP, close calendar, and team structure.
Time to shortlist is typically 2 weeks. Total time to placement is typically 3–5 weeks — finance leaders often time transitions around a month-end or quarter close.
Pricing depends on engagement model. Most Finance Manager searches route through contingent recruiting support; controller and CFO-track searches route through executive search.
Most US construction Finance Managers earn $115,000–$150,000 base plus bonus. Managers at large ENR-ranked contractors or on capital-intensive mission-critical portfolios reach $150,000–$175,000. CPA or CCIFP credentials push toward the top of range.
The Finance Manager owns the function — close, WIP consolidation, forecasting, and external reporting. A Project Accountant owns job-level cost accounting within it. Growing contractors usually need both, in that order.
Yes. Every placement carries a replacement guarantee, regardless of engagement model.
We test construction-specific finance depth — WIP mechanics, retainage cycles, surety reporting — and reference-verify it with the CFOs and controllers each candidate served. Generalist finance recruiters cannot run that screen.
30-minute scoping conversation. We’ll review the Finance Manager role, revenue scale, ERP stack, and close calendar — then start sourcing.
