Bookkeeper/Controller 🧾📊 – Remote

Company Overview
Our client is a finance and advisory firm that supports founders, CEOs, and CFOs with outsourced accounting, tax, and financial operations.
They work with businesses and individuals across industries — including real estate, SaaS, and investment firms — helping them manage bookkeeping, tax compliance, and financial reporting without building a full in-house team.
Because the work directly impacts tax compliance, financial accuracy, and client outcomes, precision and reliability are critical. Mistakes here don’t just create internal issues — they can affect filings, liabilities, and client trust.
Your Role
Our client is hiring a Bookkeeper / Controller to own day-to-day bookkeeping and drive a clean, consistent month-end close.
This is an execution-focused role. You’ll be responsible for maintaining accurate books, reconciling accounts, preparing close deliverables, and producing management reporting with a high level of accuracy.
This is not a purely strategic finance role — the focus is on doing the work well, consistently, and on time, while improving the processes that make month-end predictable.
Strong communication is essential. You’ll be working in a remote team supporting US-based stakeholders, so clarity and responsiveness matter.
You’ll:
Own day-to-day bookkeeping (AP/AR, expense categorization, journal entries, and general ledger maintenance)

Reconcile bank and credit card accounts and resolve discrepancies quickly

Maintain clean supporting documentation so records are audit-ready

Lead or support month-end close (checklists, accruals, reviews, and close package delivery)

Prepare monthly reporting (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow) and provide clear variance notes

Track deadlines and maintain a consistent operating rhythm (weekly processing + month-end close)

Improve processes (templates, SOPs, controls) to reduce errors and speed up close

Communicate clearly with internal teams on progress, blockers, and updates

You Bring:
3–7+ years of experience in bookkeeping/accounting (controller-level ownership preferred)

Strong experience with reconciliations, month-end close, and financial reporting

High attention to detail and strong follow-through

Ability to follow structured processes and meet deadlines

Good written and spoken English (critical for this role)

Comfort working in a remote, distributed team

Bonus Points:
Experience supporting multi-entity books or services businesses

Experience in finance ops for US client-facing accounting/advisory firms

Familiarity with basic tax workflows and supporting documentation

Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills (reporting, reconciliations, clean workpapers)

Experience improving close processes, documentation, or internal controls

What’s Offered:
Fully remote contractor role

Work aligned with U.S. business hours (overlap required)

Competitive USD compensation (based on experience)

20 days PTO + U.S. holidays

High exposure to US tax work and real-world client scenarios

Opportunity to grow within a fast-moving finance team
