Senior Bookkeeper (Remote)
Location: Remote
Type: Full-Time
Department: Accounting Operations
About Us
We are a growing virtual accounting firm providing bookkeeping, controller, and CFO services to established small and mid-sized businesses. We operate in a multi-client, deadline-driven environment and value accuracy, ownership, and follow-through. This role is for professionals who take pride in clean books and reliable execution.
The Role
We are hiring a Senior Bookkeeper to own the day-to-day bookkeeping and monthly close for a portfolio of client accounts. This is a hands-on role requiring strong judgment, consistency, and advanced QuickBooks Online skills.
This is not an entry-level bookkeeping role and not a staff accountant position. You will be expected to manage recurring work independently, meet deadlines without reminders, and proactively surface issues.
What You’ll Do
• Own full-cycle bookkeeping for assigned clients
• Code and review transactions weekly
• Perform monthly bank and credit card reconciliations
• Prepare and maintain balance sheet reconciliations with support
• Ensure books are accurate, organized, and closed on time each month
• Manage multiple QuickBooks Online files concurrently
• Maintain bank feeds, rules, and proper account classifications
• Identify and correct errors, including prior-period issues
• Request missing documentation and follow up proactively
• Communicate clearly on open items and timelines
• Follow firm SOPs and documentation standards consistently
What We’re Looking For
• 4+ years of hands-on bookkeeping experience
• Advanced proficiency in QuickBooks Online (required)
• Strong understanding of accrual-basis accounting
• Extensive experience with reconciliations and monthly close
• Experience managing multiple clients or entities
• Comfortable working independently in a remote environment
• Strong attention to detail and deadline discipline
• Professional written and verbal communication skills
• Working knowledge of Excel (filters, formulas, basic lookups)
What This Role Is Not
• Not entry-level bookkeeping
• Not a data-entry-only role
• Not a staff accountant or senior accountant position
• Not responsible for complex technical accounting or final reviews
How Success Is Measured
• On-time monthly closes
• Clean, well-supported reconciliations
• Minimal corrections or rework
• Consistent ownership of assigned clients
• Proactive communication and issue identification
Why This Role Might Be a Fit for You
• You enjoy owning your work and being accountable
• You prefer execution over theory
• You take pride in clean, accurate books
• You work well in structured, process-driven environments
• You don’t need constant oversight to deliver results
