We are looking for a reliable, detail-oriented Staff Accountant / Administrative Support professional to join our Centennial, Colorado office.

This is a hands-on role for someone with strong accounting and QuickBooks Online experience who is also comfortable helping with administrative responsibilities and communicating directly with clients.

A significant portion of this position will involve working closely with one primary client, so we are looking for someone who can take ownership of the day-to-day accounting, keep records organized, identify missing information, and follow open items through to completion.

Responsibilities

Perform day-to-day bookkeeping and accounting in QuickBooks Online
Review and properly categorize bank and credit card transactions
Code transactions accurately to the appropriate vendor, account, and category
Maintain clean and accurate general ledger records
Complete bank and credit card reconciliations
Review accounts for unusual, duplicate, missing, or incorrectly categorized transactions
Assist with accounts payable and accounts receivable
Maintain vendor information and accounting documentation
Assist with month-end accounting and preparation of financial statements
Identify missing information and proactively follow up on outstanding accounting items
Communicate directly with clients by phone and email regarding missing information, transaction questions, and open items
Maintain organized records and supporting documentation
Assist with administrative responsibilities within the Centennial office
Help manage documents, client requests, scheduling, and other office needs as required
Work closely with accountants and firm leadership to keep client work moving forward

Qualifications

Advanced QuickBooks Online experience is required
Strong bookkeeping and accounting background
Experience coding and reviewing high volumes of transactions
Strong understanding of the general ledger and financial statement accounts
Experience with reconciliations and month-end accounting
Strong attention to detail and accuracy
Comfortable communicating directly with clients by phone and email
Ability to independently manage open items and follow up until they are resolved
Strong organizational and time-management skills
Comfortable working in a technology-driven environment
Proficiency with Microsoft Excel, Outlook, Teams, and Microsoft 365 preferred

The Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys accounting but is also comfortable wearing multiple hats. You should be able to move between bookkeeping, client communication, problem-solving, and administrative responsibilities throughout the day.

We are especially interested in someone who is proactive rather than waiting to be told what to do. If information is missing, you follow up. If something in QuickBooks does not look right, you investigate it. If an open item is holding up the accounting, you work to get it resolved.

Accuracy, communication, and ownership are extremely important in this role.

Work Environment

This position is based in our Centennial, CO office.

The role will primarily be in-office during tax season and extension season. Outside of our busiest periods, there may be an opportunity for a hybrid combination of in-office and work-from-home days based on performance and the needs of the position.

We are a growing accounting firm with a collaborative, technology-driven team and are excited to add another strong team member to our Centennial office.

Pay: $25.00 - $35.00 per hour
