- Accurately record financial transactions using QuickBooks Online (QBO) and our loan servicing software ( TMO ).
- Maintain high accuracy in a fast-paced, transaction-heavy environment.
- Support additional financial functions as you grow in the role, including Accounts Payable processing.
- Collaborate and assist cross-functional teams across the company when extra help is needed.
- Qualifications & Requirements
- Experience: Late entry-level to mid-career experience in accounting or finance.
- Core Skills: Strong foundation in core accounting principles, with intermediate-to-advanced proficiency in Excel and QuickBooks Online (QBO) .
- Key Traits: Meticulous attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and a growth-oriented mindset.
- Team Player Spirit: Willingness to pitch in beyond daily core tasks to help team members across departments.
- Languages: Bilingual (English/Spanish) is a strong plus but not required.
- Background Check: Candidate must successfully complete a background check prior to employment.
Perks & Benefits
- Competitive Pay: $55,000 - $65,000 base salary, plus an annual performance bonus potential of up to 10%.
- 4-Day Work Week: Enjoy a 4-day work week schedule during the second half of the year! This is subject to change depending on business activities.
- Health Coverage: 100% employer-paid medical benefits for the employee.
- Paid Time Off : All full time employees receive Unlimited PTO after 90 day probation period.
- Career Growth: Clear opportunity to expand your skill set, take on more responsibility, and advance as our company grows.
