They're looking for a Full-Charge Bookkeeper who enjoys taking ownership of the accounting function and being a trusted resource for leadership.

This is more than a bookkeeping role. You'll oversee the full accounting cycle, support financial reporting, and play a key role in helping leadership make informed business decisions.

The Opportunity

As a Full-Charge Bookkeeper, you'll manage day-to-day accounting operations while ensuring financial records are accurate, organized, and up to date. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a hands-on environment and enjoys wearing multiple hats.

• 
  

• Process payroll and maintain accurate employee and vendor records

• Experience with payroll, reconciliations, and month-end close

  
  
• 
  

• Highly organized with strong attention to detail and the ability to work independently

  
  
• 
  

Why This Role Stands Out

• 
  

• High-visibility role with ownership of the accounting function

  
  
• 
  

• Opportunity to work directly with company leadership

  
  
• 
  

• Stable organization with a collaborative, team-oriented culture

  
  
• 
  

• Broad exposure across accounting, payroll, and financial reporting
