Bookkeeper Needed – Cleanup Projects & Ongoing Client Bookkeeping We are looking for an experienced bookkeeper to join our team. We have immediate cleanup projects available, with the opportunity to take on ongoing monthly bookkeeping clients as we continue to grow. Most of the work will involve service based small businesses, so I am looking for someone who is comfortable stepping into existing QuickBooks Online files, figuring out what happened, cleaning them up, and getting the books into a reliable monthly workflow. Responsibilities • Historical bookkeeping cleanup and catch up projects • Bank and credit card reconciliations • Reviewing and correcting previously recorded transactions • Cleaning up and reorganizing Charts of Accounts • Identifying duplicate, missing, misclassified, or unreconciled transactions • Accounts payable and accounts receivable bookkeeping • Payroll entry and reconciliation • Balance sheet account reconciliations • Month end close and review • Sales & Use Tax Fillings • Preparing accurate monthly P&L and Balance Sheet reports • Maintaining supporting documentation and organized client files • Transitioning completed cleanup projects into ongoing monthly bookkeeping • Communicating questions, discrepancies, and missing information clearly to our team What I’m Looking For You should have strong hands on experience with QuickBooks Online and be comfortable working independently in books that may not be clean when you receive them. I am specifically looking for someone who understands accounting fundamentals rather than someone who only knows how to categorize transactions. You should be able to look at a Balance Sheet or P&L, recognize when something does not make sense, investigate the underlying transactions, and explain what needs to be corrected. This can become an ongoing position.

Hello, I’d be glad to help with both cleanup projects and ongoing bookkeeping. I work comfortably in QuickBooks Online, stepping into messy files, tracing the accounting behind the numbers, and getting the books back to a reliable monthly close. My focus is on the fundamentals: reconciliations, balance sheet integrity, correcting misclassified or missing transactions, cleaning up the chart of accounts, AP/AR, payroll entries, and producing clean monthly P&L and Balance Sheet reports. I’m also careful with documentation, so your team always has a clear record of what was corrected and why. For service-based businesses, I can move from historical cleanup into a steady monthly workflow without losing continuity. I communicate clearly, work independently, and flag issues early so nothing gets buried. Panagiotis
