Full Charge Bookkeeper

Description

BLS, one of the largest and most established certified public accounting firms in Delaware, is seeking a Full Charge Bookkeeper with a solid knowledge of accounting principles to perform full cycle bookkeeping and accounting work for small businesses and individuals in our growing Wilmington, Delaware headquarters.

Are you a numbers guru who thrives on keeping books balanced, clients happy, and financial puzzles solved? Do you have the skills to oversee the ins and outs of AR, AP, Payroll, and GL Maintenance—without necessarily being stuck in the weeds all day? If you’re nodding enthusiastically, we need to talk!

Requirements

• Keeping multiple clients financially on track with full-cycle bookkeeping —from GL maintenance and month-end close to bank reconciliations and inventory tracking.
• Overseeing AR/AP & Payroll —you know the process inside and out, but you won’t be manually processing invoices or running payroll (that’s what ADP and Paylocity are for). Instead, you’ll guide, review, and make sure everything runs smoothly .
• Being a tech-savvy rockstar —you can navigate QuickBooks (or similar software) with ease, leverage Excel like a pro (think: formulas, pivot tables, report writing), and even work your magic with Power BI or other data tools.
• Client-facing & educational —you’ll interact with clients, help them understand their books, and make sure they’re set up for success. You enjoy explaining financial reports in a way that makes sense to non-accountants.
• Working on-site when needed— must be local and open to occasional client visits.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in full-cycle bookkeeping for multiple clients or in a company where you manage it all (not just AR or just AP).
• Public accounting experience? Even better! You know how to juggle multiple clients like a pro.
• A knack for tech— QuickBooks, Excel wizardry, report writing, and Power BI knowledge are a plus.
• Detail-oriented, efficient, and analytical —you spot issues before they become problems and can fix them.
• Great communication skills —you love working with clients and breaking down financial data in an easy-to-digest way.
• A go-getter mentality —you work well independently but know when to collaborate and ask the right questions.
• Ability to travel to client sites as needed.

What’s in it for You

• Flexibility: Work remote, n-office, or hybrid—whatever fits best outside of client visits!
• A supportive, growth-oriented environment where your skills will be valued and developed.
• Career advancement opportunities —we believe in promoting from within.
• Ongoing training & mentoring to help you reach your career goals.
• A team that feels like a family!
