There are a variety of duties performed in this role.

I verify and enter manufacturing orders into Great Plains(GP) making sure that all materials consumed are applied to the order as well as the labor costs.

I coordinate with the shipping department on sales that were sent out each day and convert these into invoices.

Set up special projects within GP including entering the bill of materials, assigning the materials to the project once it is completed and prepping the project for billing.

I approve all sales orders after the sales team enters them in Sales Pad.

I have been learning how to use the GP system and developing training materials as I go in an attempt to get the team not only using the system properly but in a uniform way.

Tracked cost for a variety of markets from Arizona to Missouri. Daily use of QuickBooks and Penguin Data programs are used for this purpose.

Just as the pandemic started shutting down everything in March 2020 the head of finance left the company. For most of the rest of the year I stepped up and ran the finance team. During this period I covered all the financial responsibilities including cash flow. I continued overseeing the cash flow even after a new Controller was hired.

In November of 2019 took over running the Grandview, MO. market after the market director left the company. Was in charge of overseeing the day to day functions as well as overseeing a move from one office/yard location to a new location. This lasted for roughly six months.

In my 24 plus years with Kiewit I held many rolls starting with onsite Business Manager of small paving projects. Eventually moved up to large power plant projects where I was responsible for overseeing staffs that were responsible for all the business functions including payroll, accounts payable and sub and material contracts. I have extensive experience overseeing very large payrolls. I have also been involved in developing and rolling out two new payroll systems. I have dealt with unions in many locations and on all levels,
