The Cost of Getting This Wrong

Every day a Cost Controller position stays open, your organization loses ground.

Without effective cost control, construction projects average 28% cost overruns

Controllers must track change orders, labor productivity, and material costs in real-time

Finding professionals with both financial analysis skills and construction knowledge is challenging

Why GOHR for Cost Controller Recruiting

We recruit cost controllers with construction cost management experience, ERP/accounting software proficiency, and the analytical skills to identify and prevent budget overruns.
