About The Position

True Living LLC is a high-end residential building company focused on delivering custom homes and major renovations with precision, care, and purpose. Our work is guided by three core values: Truth, Trust, and Thankfulness. Our vision is 'Building With Eternal Perspective,' believing that what and how we build matters beyond the project itself. We are looking for a careful, dependable Construction Bookkeeper who understands that accurate numbers keep a custom home build honest.

• Values alignment with Truth, Trust, and Thankfulness
