Handles project accounting support: timesheet consolidation, invoice preparation, cost records and reconciliation.
Direct answer
Gulf Orbit supplies accountants to project and site offices anywhere in Saudi Arabia for project accounting support: consolidating timesheets and attendance, preparing and checking invoices against approved records, keeping project cost records and petty cash, reconciling accounts, and supporting audit and documentation requirements.
A site accountant does not run the company's books. The job is to make sure every cost on the project is recorded, supported and posted: timesheets, delivery notes, subcontractor claims, petty cash and site purchases. Head office finance depends on those records being complete and on time. If the site records are weak, month-end becomes a hunt for missing paper. Describe what the site accountant will own, so the match covers the actual workload.
On manpower-heavy projects, much of the site accountant's time goes on hours: consolidating timesheets from foremen, reconciling them with attendance and gate records, and preparing or checking invoices against approved hours and rates. Errors here reach your client or your subcontractors directly. Share your timesheet and invoicing workflow in the RFQ, so accountants who have run that cycle are put forward.
Every site buys small items locally: fittings, tools, fuel, repairs. Petty cash needs a float, receipts, approval limits and a regular reconciliation, or small amounts become large gaps. The site accountant keeps the petty cash book, checks receipts against approvals and replenishes the float through head office. Tell us your approval limits and replenishment routine, so they are followed from the first week.
Project accounting runs in anything from spreadsheets to ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle or local accounting packages. Posting, cost codes and reports look different in each. Name the system and the reports the accountant will produce, such as cost reports, accruals or cash flow, and whether the work is on site or at head office, so the accountant is matched on the system as well as the role.
A site accountant usually reports to your project manager and head office finance, and works with the office secretary on documents, the storekeeper on material records, and foremen on timesheets. On large projects, a senior accountant may lead a small team split by function, such as payables and payroll. Send the scope and reporting line, and the accounting support is proposed.
Trade, headcount, site location, start date, duration and shift pattern. Anything you can add about site access and permit requirements shortens the next step.
Complete RFQs get a priced quotation, or an acknowledgement with any questions needed to price them, within 24 hours (Sunday–Thursday).
CVs, iqama and trade documentation, with TUV or Aramco card copies where the trade holds one, are submitted for your review. Nobody mobilizes before you approve the profiles.
In-Kingdom personnel mobilize to sites anywhere in Saudi Arabia within 48–72 hours of the purchase order, subject to worker documents and site approvals. Every worker completes Gulf Orbit's safety induction before deployment, and is briefed on your site's permit-to-work and access requirements.
Iqama, identification and trade documentation are available for client review before mobilization. Where a client requires a specific certification or a trade test before a worker is accepted on site, say so in the requirement and it will be addressed during matching rather than after arrival.
Name the system in the RFQ, such as SAP, Oracle or a local accounting package, and the modules the accountant will use, so accountants with that experience are put forward.
If your client or company requires a specific professional qualification, state it in the RFQ. Qualifications are confirmed per request, and copies come with the CV for your review.
Yes, with your quantity surveyor or engineer providing the measured work. State whether the accountant prepares the certificates or only checks and records them.
State the language requirement in the RFQ, especially if records, reports or correspondence must be in Arabic, so the match covers it.
Yes. State the location and the reporting line, because head office project accounting usually involves more consolidation and less site record-keeping.
Mobilization of in-Kingdom personnel to project sites anywhere in Saudi Arabia takes 48–72 hours from purchase order (PO), subject to worker documents and site approvals.
