About The Position

The Project Costing Analyst sits at the center of project financial operations at Triumph, supporting project managers across all divisions with the cost data, system setup, and reporting they need to run their projects effectively. You will own job setup and maintenance in Sage, work directly with PMs on cost updates and forecasts, prepare WIP and budget reports, and serve as the first point of contact for Sage troubleshooting and error resolution. This role spans a wide range of construction work, from roofing and waterproofing to glazing and restoration, so you will regularly interact with multiple teams and project types. Good work here means project managers have accurate numbers when they need them, Sage is set up correctly from day one, and issues get caught and resolved before they show up in the financials. The people who thrive in this role are detail-oriented, comfortable owning a system, and know how to work with busy PMs without adding friction to their day.

Requirements

3 to 5 years of experience in project costing, cost control, or financial tracking in a construction or trades environment

Advanced Excel skills including pivot tables, formulas, and financial modelling for cost tracking and variance analysis
Ability to read and interpret construction project budgets, purchase orders, subcontractor quotes, and billing documentation
You stay organized across multiple active projects and keep your data accurate and up to date without needing to be reminded
You are comfortable working with numbers and can spot a variance or setup error quickly and explain what it means in plain language
You build effective working relationships with project managers and finance teams, making it easy for them to get the cost information they need
You communicate directly and flag issues early, rather than waiting until a problem has grown into something bigger
