About
We are a fast-growing general contracting company looking for an experienced fractional CFO or construction financial consultant to help us build a professional financial reporting system. Right now, our job costing and financial tracking is messy, and we need someone to come in and set up clear, automated reporting that ties directly to our projects. We want real-time visibility into costs, margins, and profitability per job. Scope of Work: Review our current accounting setup (QuickBooks Online + JobTread CRM). Create a job costing framework (cost codes, labor, subs, materials, overhead). Automate integration between QuickBooks and JobTread for accurate cost tracking. Build weekly and monthly reporting dashboards: Job-level P&L (budget vs. actual). Company-level dashboard (cash flow, AR/AP, gross profit, net profit). Establish a reporting cadence (weekly project reports, monthly financial package). Train our internal team to maintain the system once it’s in place. Requirements: Proven experience as a fractional CFO, controller, or senior accountant in construction. Strong knowledge of job costing, WIP reporting, and cost code setup. Proficiency with QuickBooks Online (JobTread experience strongly preferred). Ability to set up systems and deliver hands-on solutions (not just high-level advice). Excellent communication and ability to explain reports clearly. Budget & Hours: Initial system setup project (estimated 30–40 hours). Ongoing fractional CFO support (5–10 hours/month). Hourly or fixed-price proposals welcome. Why Work With Us: We are growing rapidly and scaling into multi-million dollar annual revenue. We’re committed to building strong financial systems now so we can continue to expand. This is a great opportunity to create a lasting impact with a growing construction company. Next Steps: Please include in your proposal: Relevant construction finance experience. Examples of job costing/reporting setups you’ve built. Your preferred hourly rate or fixed-price estimate.
