Labor Compliance Analyst/Auditor

Position Overview

The ideal candidate understands how financial records connect and has experience in auditing, accounting, payroll, or financial reconciliation. Prior labor compliance or construction experience is highly preferred but may not be required for an exceptional accounting/audit candidate who can learn regulatory requirements quickly.

A CPA, CPA candidate, or candidate with formal accounting/auditing credentials is strongly preferred.
