The Chief Financial Officer serves as the Company's senior financial executive and strategic business partner to the President.
While overseeing the Company's financial operations, the CFO's primary responsibility is helping leadership make better business decisions through sound financial strategy, insightful analysis, disciplined risk management, and operational partnership.
The successful candidate will join a strong accounting foundation, including a talented Controller and accounting team. Rather than serving as the day-to-day accounting manager, the CFO will provide executive-level leadership, strategic direction, mentorship, and organizational development as the Company continues to grow.
This position offers a unique opportunity to leave a lasting legacy-not only through financial stewardship, but by developing future financial leaders within the organization.
What We Are Looking For

This person will bring strong experience in construction accounting, job costing, work-in-progress reporting, cash flow management, bonding, banking relationships, financial controls, and strategic financial planning.
A qualified candidate will be comfortable partnering directly with ownership, executive leadership, operations, estimating, payroll, HR, safety, equipment, and project management. They should be able to translate complex financial information into practical business guidance, identify risks and opportunities, and help drive informed decisions that support long-term company growth.
The successful candidate will be a steady, professional, and trusted leader who values accuracy, confidentiality, accountability, and collaboration. Experience in civil construction, heavy highway, public works, union payroll, certified payroll, retainage, equipment costing, and Washington State construction operations is strongly preferred. Experience with HCSS and Computer Ease is desired.
