Join the Team at Elliot Builders
Elliot Builders is a Los Angeles–based construction firm working on high-end residential homes, ground-up construction, and select commercial projects. Since 2019, we’ve been building thoughtfully designed spaces with a deep commitment to craftsmanship, detail, and quality — and just as importantly, to people.
We believe construction can be collaborative, thoughtful, and human-first. We value open communication, accountability, and team members who care about doing great work together. As we continue on a strong growth trajectory, we’re looking for someone who’s excited to grow with us and help shape how we operate behind the scenes.
The Role
We’re looking for a full-time Accounting Associate to lead our Accounts Payable process and support Accounts Receivable — someone who understands construction accounting and enjoys being an integral part of a growing company.
This role is not just transactional. We’re looking for someone who thinks critically, understands job cost structure, and wants to contribute ideas on how we can continue improving our systems and processes as we scale.
What You'll Be Doing
Accounts Payable (Primary Focus):
Process vendor and subcontractor invoices
Ensure proper approvals and accurate job cost coding
Manage weekly check runs / ACH payments
Reconcile vendor statements
Maintain compliance documentation and organized digital records
Accounts Receivable (Support):
Assist with client invoicing and progress billings

Construction Accounting Responsibilities:
Work within and help maintain our Chart of Accounts

Growth & Process Improvement:
Provide feedback based on prior experience
Identify opportunities to improve workflows and reporting
Bring critical thinking to our current systems and help refine them
Contribute to building scalable financial processes as we grow

1 year minimum construction accounting experience (required)
Hands-on experience with Chart of Accounts, WIP reporting, and cost codes
Strong Accounts Payable background
Familiarity with construction or accounting software
Highly organized and detail-oriented
Clear communicator who enjoys collaborating with project teams
Someone excited about growth — both personally and as a company
Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who doesn’t just want a job — but wants to help build something. We’re on a tremendous growth path, and we value team members who want to contribute ideas, strengthen systems, and be part of shaping the future of Elliot Builders.
What It's Like to Work Here: We take pride in our work, but we don’t operate with ego or red tape. At Elliot Builders, you’ll find:

A team that supports each other
