Accounting Clerk
About The Position
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.
