• Review revenue recognition and work-in-progress (WIP) schedules for active construction contracts.
  

Intercompany & Consolidation

• Record, reconcile, and settle intercompany transactions, allocations, and balances across multiple entities.
  
• Ensure intercompany accounts are matched and eliminated accurately in every reporting period.
  
• Support multi-entity consolidation, including elimination entries and currency translation where applicable.
  

Reporting & Compliance

• Prepare monthly financial statements, variance analysis, and management reporting packs.
  
• Coordinate with external auditors, preparing schedules and responding to audit queries.
  
• Ensure compliance with US GAAP and internal accounting policies and controls.
