About the role:
• This is a fully remote job and team members need to have a place where they can focus on their work and engage clients and other team members via video conferencing calls.
• We define “accountant” as someone who has the proven skills to artfully handle bookkeeping, payroll, bank reconciliations, data entry, monthly financial statements, and other bookkeeping duties that support a business’ financial health and growth.
• We are extremely team-oriented, tech-savvy, and fast-learning around here. If you prefer to work alone, on paper, and at your own pace, you’ll be much happier working for someone else.
Job requirements:
• A solid understanding of accounting principles. CPA is a must.
• Comfortable communicating and building professional relationships with the clients.
• A fanatical attention to detail. Data entry is the first—and most critical—step in our client work, especially when preparing monthly financial statements. You should be able to quickly identify errors, out-of-line data, and developing trends.
• A working knowledge of Quickbooks or other systems.
• Comfort with all technology. The nature of working remote means we lean toward digital tools and far (far) away from printing out all the things.
• A deep appreciation for collaboration and teamwork. We believe world-class accounting is a team sport—we learn faster, solve better, and have a heckuva lot more fun when we work together. We engage directly (and regularly) via video-conferencing to stay on the same page.
• Excellent communication skills. To us, this means being able to clearly and tactfully deliver feedback to a peer, give advice to a business owner, and throw ideas into the ring. It also means knowing when to listen and what to listen for.
Willingness to:
-Work 8am to 6pm EST
-Do regular client meetings (good customer service and proactive communication is a must)
-Attend a paid interview for (1-4 days depending on the performance of the candidate).
