Construction companies live and die by job costing, cash flow, and execution in the field. I work with privately held, mid-sized contractors and construction groups to place CFOs, Controllers, operations leaders, and select project leaders who understand WIP, bonding, and project risk—not just generic corporate finance.
How I help construction companies
- Focus on firms where finance and operations have to work together: owners, project executives, and the back office all aligned around margins and schedule.
- Bring you leaders who know construction accounting (WIP, job costing, billing cycles, surety relationships, bank covenants) and can still communicate clearly with the field.
- Support both full-time and fractional finance leadership when you’re upgrading from basic bookkeeping to real financial strategy.
Roles we fill
- Chief Financial Officer and VP Finance for general contractors, specialty trades, and construction services firms.
- Controller, Assistant Controller, and senior project accounting leaders with deep construction WIP and job costing experience.
- Director of Operations, VP Operations, and other field-linked leadership where financial performance and execution meet.
- Select project-side roles such as Senior Project Manager, Estimator, and Superintendent when they are critical to job profitability and growth.
Where we focus
- Owner-operated and family-owned construction companies, typically under a few hundred employees, looking to professionalize finance and operations without losing their culture.
- General contractors, specialty contractors, and construction services firms across commercial, industrial, and select residential markets.
Need a CFO, Controller, ops leader—or a key PM, Estimator, or Superintendent—who actually understands construction?
