General Accountant (Staff Accountant / Bookkeeper)

$44.5k - $81k

J.R. Helms & Associates P.C

General Accountant (Staff Accountant / Bookkeeper)

Indianapolis, IN | Full-Time | On-site

About the Role

J.R. Helms & Associates, P.C. is a full-service accounting, tax, and business consulting firm based in Indianapolis. We’re hiring a Staff Accountant / General Accountant who wants meaningful client work, professional growth, and a clear development path.

This role is ideal for someone with hands-on accounting and bookkeeping experience who is ready to take ownership of general ledger responsibilities while continuing to grow in a supportive, collaborative public accounting environment.

This role requires sound judgment, curiosity, and the ability to think through issues—not just follow a checklist.

What You’ll Do

  • Prepare and post journal entries
  • Reconcile and maintain general ledger accounts
  • Support month-end and year-end close
  • Prepare financial statements and supporting schedules
  • Research and resolve account discrepancies
  • Assist with operational and financial audit fieldwork
  • Perform data entry and financial analysis
  • Support income tax preparation for individual, business, and non-profit clients (as assigned)
  • Communicate clearly with clients and internal team members

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience with QuickBooks and general ledger accounting
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy
  • Ability to analyze issues and problem-solve independently
  • Clear, professional communication skills
  • Comfort working with multiple clients or entities
  • Public accounting or small-business accounting experience preferred

Why Join J.R. Helms & Associates

  • SIMPLE IRA with 3% company match
  • Paid vacation, sick, and holiday time
  • Paid continuing education , CPA exam support, and professional memberships
  • Exposure to a wide range of industries and clients
  • Opportunity to grow into senior and leadership roles

Compensation:

Competitive salary range of $44,500–$81,000 , based on experience, with opportunities for growth, professional development, and performance-based increases.

Who This Role Is NOT For

This role may not be a good fit if:

  • You’re looking for a fully remote position
  • Your experience is limited to AP/AR, payroll-only, or data-entry-only work
  • You prefer highly repetitive, behind-the-scenes tasks with little client interaction
  • You’re seeking a senior leadership or management-level role at this time
