Bookkeeper

About the role
We are a CPA firm providing monthly bookkeeping services to 20+ clients across a diverse range of industries. This is a fully remote, salaried position for a self-directed professional who takes complete ownership of their client portfolio — delivering clean, fully reconciled books every month without being chased.

We need someone who communicates proactively, closes on time, and understands how the books connect to the tax return. If you do the minimum and wait to be managed, this isn't the right fit.

Key responsibilities
- Own the monthly close for a dedicated client portfolio, delivering fully reconciled financials on a consistent, timely schedule
- Perform complete balance sheet reconciliations — bank, credit card, loans, payroll liabilities, and other accounts — with no unresolved items
- Prepare book-to-tax adjustments including depreciation, accruals, and other entries in coordination with the tax team
- Communicate proactively with clients to gather documents, clarify transactions, and surface issues — before they become problems
- Maintain organized, well-documented workpapers for each engagement
- Escalate discrepancies or unusual activity to the supervising CPA promptly

What sets you apart
- You close books on time every month without reminders
- You leave no unreconciled items and document your work clearly
- You reach out to clients before issues escalate
- You can bridge the gap between book income and taxable income
- You thrive working independently and managing a varied client load
