Senior QuickBooks Desktop/Online Bookkeeper

I run a U.S.–based financial services firm and need a full-time bookkeeper who can take complete ownership of multiple client files. The role is hands-on inside QuickBooks Desktop (hosted) and QuickBooks Online, with data frequently exported to Excel for analysis and clean-up.

Your background should include at least five years of deep work in QuickBooks Desktop and three years in QuickBooks Online. A chartered accountant designation or U.S. CPA equivalent is essential, as you will be preparing statements that flow straight into tax filings and management packs. Clear, fluent English and the confidence to send short daily progress notes are non-negotiable because we are in continuous communication with our clients.

Core focus: monthly cash reconciliations across bank, credit-card, and payment-gateway accounts. Once the cash is tied out, you will update aging schedules for A/P and A/R, then compile quarterly and year-end income statements and balance sheets.

Acceptance criteria
• Every reconciliation balances to the penny and is delivered within three business days of month-end.
• Aging reports show accurate totals with no open items older than 60 days unless clearly noted.
• Financial statements follow U.S. GAAP formatting and reach me no later than the 5th business day after period close.
• Daily update email (or Slack post) summarizing what was completed, what’s in progress, and any blockers.

If you thrive on accurate books, love both versions of QuickBooks, and can communicate clearly every day, I’d like to hear from you.
