Accounting Specialist

What it’s like to work at Red Canyon:

At Red Canyon we expect and promote a work hard, play hard attitude!  The Red Canyon Operations Team is lean and mean.  The Red Canyon home office is open, fun, flexible, green, and a high-energy, fast-paced environment.  We strive for innovative efficiency.  We put in the effort to exceed our customers’ expectations in contract management, bid and proposal responses, and engineering services.  We are all A-team players, and will expect the same of you.  You will have the opportunity to grow with our small business and share in our triumphs.  On the flip slide, we go out and have fun celebrating our achievements together.  When we win proposals, happy hour is on Red Canyon! 

We always have the Sonos bumping, filling our hard-working silence with motivating beats.  The kitchen is permanently stocked with our favorite soft drinks, seasonal beers, tasty snacks, and fun-sized candy!  You’ll work with a group of go-getters at The Castle every day.  Yes, our home office is dubbed, “The Castle!”  You can expect to see the whole team together only on Tuesdays for our operations meetings.  Tuesdays are a long day of internal meetings, but it’s not too bad - Red Canyon always buys us a delicious lunch!  We’re a goofy bunch of nerds who love what we do in - and outside of work.
