A construction bookkeeper records income and cost by project rather than just by company. The work includes coding invoices to the right job and cost code, running approvals, reconciling the bank, updating the WIP schedule, tracking retention owed and held, and preparing the CIS and VAT returns. The result each month is a set of numbers a project manager and an accountant can both work from.
UK salary guides put general bookkeeper pay roughly between £24,000 and £40,000 a year, rising toward £45,000 in London, according to ICS Learn’s salary guide. Bookkeepers with construction-specific experience in job costing, CIS, and retention often sit toward the higher end of that range because the work carries more compliance risk.
AI and automation are taking over the repetitive parts of the job, such as data entry, OCR on invoices, and bank matching. The judgment calls that matter in construction, like checking a subcontractor’s valuation against the contract or deciding when to chase a retention release, still need someone who understands the project. The exceptions that contracts, retention, and CIS deductions create every month are still why the role exists.
Most contractors end up running two layers. General accounting software, such as Xero or QuickBooks, holds the ledger, the VAT return, and the year end accounts. A construction-specific layer, such as Planyard, handles job costing, budgets, WIP, retention, and CIS, so invoices arrive coded correctly before they reach the ledger.
