About the job

🧮 Accounting Clerk

Oline Construction

Oline Construction is continuing to grow, and we’re looking for an Accounting Clerk to support the day-to-day accounting execution behind our projects.

This role sits at the center of our accounting operations — ensuring transactions are accurate, documentation is complete, and processes run smoothly across accounts payable, vendor compliance, credit cards, and month-end close support. You’ll work directly under the Controller and collaborate with project teams to keep financial operations clean, timely, and reliable.

This is an execution-focused position — you won’t be setting accounting policy or making financial decisions, but you will play a critical role in maintaining the integrity of our accounting processes as we scale.

We’re looking for someone with strong technical accounting fundamentals, a working knowledge of GAAP, and a detail-oriented mindset who enjoys structured workflows and problem solving.

What You’ll Do

Accounts Payable & Vendor Coordination

• Process accounts payable in accordance with internal controls and company policies
• Review invoices for coding accuracy, approvals, and required documentation
• Maintain vendor records (W-9s, ACH authorizations, insurance certificates, lien waivers)
• Perform vendor compliance reviews prior to payment
• Resolve invoice discrepancies with vendors and internal teams
• Support payment runs and assist with AP aging follow-ups

Credit Cards & Payment Support

• Issue and manage company credit cards in accordance with policy
• Review transactions for proper coding and documentation
• Export, review, and import transactions into the accounting system
• Assist with ACH, credit card, and payment processing issues

Payroll & Month-End Close Support

• Prepare payroll-related journal entries (reviewed and approved)
• Prepare assigned month-end journal entries
• Perform balance sheet and account reconciliations
• Maintain reconciliation support schedules
• Assist with prepaid expense, amortization, and depreciation schedules

Reporting & Project Coordination

• Assist in preparing draft monthly financial statements
• Assemble internal reporting packages
• Maintain organized electronic accounting files
• Support audit, lender, and internal documentation requests
• Coordinate with Project Accountants on invoice status and compliance
• Verify vendor invoices against purchase orders or subcontract terms

Growth Opportunity

This position is designed to grow with you. As experience is gained, responsibilities may expand into deeper reconciliations, month-end preparation, project accounting support, and process improvement initiatives.

What We’re Looking For

• Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• Internship or early-career accounting/AP experience
• Working knowledge of GAAP and core accounting principles
• Understanding of journal entries and accounting workflows
• Strong attention to detail and organization skills
• Willingness to learn and follow established processes
• Proficiency in Excel and accounting systems
• Construction or project-based accounting experience is a plus (not required)

Work Environment

Primarily office-based with occasional jobsite visits.
