Experienced Xero Bookkeeper – eCommerce & Stripe Clearing Accounts

We’re looking for a detail-oriented, experienced bookkeeper who is confident using Xero and has a solid understanding of eCommerce accounting, particularly with platforms like Stripe and the use of clearing accounts.

You’ll be working with an established business that handles online transactions and needs accurate, timely bookkeeping and reconciliation. Familiarity with clearing accounts for Stripe payouts and fees is essential.

We also use Fathom for financial reporting. Experience with Fathom is not required, but a willingness to learn and work with it is a big plus.

This is a part-time, long-term role with regular monthly responsibilities and the opportunity to grow with our team.

Responsibilities:
Manage and reconcile Xero accounts monthly

Accurately record Stripe deposits, separating gross revenue from fees using our clearing account system

Ensure all transactions are categorized correctly

Match bank feeds and keep accounts fully reconciled

Assist in preparing monthly reports (we use Fathom — training provided if needed)

Liaise with the business owner about any inconsistencies or missing documents

Keep digital records organized and up to date

Requirements:
2+ years of experience using Xero

Strong understanding of bookkeeping for eCommerce businesses

Experience with Stripe payments and setting up/using clearing accounts

High attention to detail

Ability to work independently and meet monthly deadlines

Clear and effective communicator (written English)

Preferred (but not required):
Experience with Fathom reporting

We expect bookkeeping to take around 10–15 hours per month (2–4 hours per week) depending on volume and workflow. This may increase slightly during reporting periods or as the business grows.
