Experienced Senior Bookkeeper/Accountant

Starting Rate: $10+ USD/hour (with scope to increase for outstanding performance)
Remote – Work from Home
Part-Time | Long-Term Role
Expert Level – Minimum 10 Years Experience

About the Role
We are looking for a highly experienced, proactive Senior Bookkeeper who thrives on ownership and accuracy. This is not an entry-level role. You must be able to take charge, solve problems independently, and deliver work that requires little to no re-checking.
Many of our clients are landlords and property developers, so experience recording property purchases, financing, and related costs is essential.
If you are systems-driven, meticulous, and love delivering clean, reconciled books, you’ll fit right in. We want someone who can add value, improve processes, and free up leadership from day-to-day oversight.

What You’ll Be Doing
* Managing bookkeeping across multiple UK clients with accuracy and consistency
* Handling VAT, UK Payroll, Accounts Payable, and Accounts Receivable
* Recording property purchases, loans, and financing transactions for landlords and developers
* Reconciling accounts and preparing clean, organised financials
* Using Xero and QuickBooks with expert proficiency
* Identifying and solving issues without needing step-by-step guidance
* Improving and documenting bookkeeping systems and processes

What We’re Looking For
10+ years of bookkeeping experience (essential)
Expert in Xero & QuickBooks
Strong knowledge of UK accounting practices
Proven experience with VAT, UK Payroll, and property transactions
Process and systems oriented mindset – structured, reliable, and organised
Ability to spot and resolve issues independently
Excellent English (written & spoken)
Dependable, proactive, and detail-obsessed

Nice to Have
Previous experience with UK-based property clients
Experience streamlining and automating bookkeeping processes

Do Not Apply If…
* You need constant supervision or micromanagement
* You struggle to spot and fix errors independently
* You prefer being “told what to do” instead of taking initiative
* You don’t enjoy reconciliations or detailed bookkeeping tasks
* You cannot consistently meet deadlines in a remote setup

Performance Expectations – First 90 Days
By the end of your first 3 months, you should be able to:
* Confidently manage bookkeeping for multiple UK clients with minimal oversight
* Consistently deliver error-free reconciliations and reports
* Take full ownership of VAT submissions, UK payroll, and property purchase transactions
* Identify at least one area to streamline or improve existing processes
* Build trust by showing proactive problem-solving and reliable communication
* Become a dependable point of contact for both the team and clients

What We Offer
* Competitive hourly rate ($10+, based on experience & expertise)
* Scope for rate increases over time as you demonstrate value
* 100% remote work – flexible and structured
* Long-term, stable opportunity with a supportive, professional team
