WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED (MINDSET → SKILLS)

You have 1–2+ years in a bookkeeping support, AP/AR, office admin, or similar accounting support role.
You’ve supported multiple client files/folders at once and can keep docs, tasks, and deadlines straight.
You’re comfortable with document intake tools (e.g., Dext) and cloud drives (Google Drive, etc.), and you’re disciplined about naming conventions and folder structure.
You can match receipts/statements to bank/credit transactions in QuickBooks Online (or you learn QBO fast and already get the logic).
You’re steady with rules-based, repetitive workflows and take pride in clean, consistent outputs.
You spot missing/odd/inconsistent items and either fix them or flag them clearly with a short note.
You communicate well in writing (Slack/email) and can summarize what you did in 2–3 tidy bullets.

You take ownership: when something’s off, you raise it early, propose a next step, or ask for help.

  • Follow-through over flash—you finish what you start and meet deadlines.
  • Comfort with structured, repetitive work that demands care and consistency.
  • Notice when something’s almost right—but not quite
  • Async-friendly communicator who asks smart questions when blocked.
  • Enjoy being a behind-the-scenes helper on a mission-driven team.
  • Organizational instincts: clean naming, logical folders, tidy checklists.

Bonus points if you’ve ever worked in Dext or QBO (or learn fast).

This Role Won’t Work If:

  • You prefer constant variety or creative freedom—this is structured work
  • You need daily check-ins or a lot of social interaction
  • You get overwhelmed by digital tools or hopping between tabs
  • You find “organizing files” more boring than satisfying

Responsibilities

ROLE SNAPSHOT (IMPACT)

You’ll keep our bookkeepers flying: wrangle receipts, tidy transaction records, and maintain folder/order discipline so monthly closes are smooth and on time. No client calls, no payroll/tax—just clean inputs and reliable follow-through.

WHAT THIS ROLE IS ALL ABOUT

This is a behind-the-scenes role that keeps everything moving smoothly for our bookkeeping team. You’ll wrangle receipts, tidy up transaction records, and keep our shared folders (and heads) from exploding.
You won’t be managing books or talking to clients, your job is to make sure our lead bookkeepers have what they need to close clean books on time. Think of it like pre‑meal prep for financials.
If you’re organized, quietly obsessive about naming things properly, and find joy in helping others do their best work, this could be your thing.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Review receipts/statements in Dext, Google Drive, and email.
  • Match docs to transactions in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
  • Flag missing/odd/inconsistent items for the lead bookkeeper.
  • Help categorize expenses using our internal rules (we’ll train you).
  • Maintain orderly folder structure and file naming conventions.
  • Support light report prep (e.g., double-checking BVA notes or formatting).

This Role Won’t Work If:

  • You prefer constant variety or creative freedom—this is structured work
  • You need daily check-ins or a lot of social interaction
  • You get overwhelmed by digital tools or hopping between tabs
  • You find “organizing files” more boring than satisfyin
