About the Company

Our client is a U.S.-based accounting and advisory firm that supports established small and midsize businesses. It provides bookkeeping and foundational accounting, business-plan development, and fractional CFO support so owners have clear visibility into performance and can make better-informed decisions.

The firm works with clients across construction, skilled trades, professional services, insurance, property management, and other service-based businesses. Services are available in English and Spanish. The team focuses on accurate records, a consistent month-end process, and reports that are easy to understand, including for collaboration with each client's CPA.

The culture is built on integrity, clarity, partnership, growth, and results. The firm values practical insight, long-term relationships, and turning financial data into guidance that clients can use.

About the Role

A U.S.-based accounting and advisory firm is seeking an Accountant to manage full-cycle accounting for small business clients across a range of service industries.

This engagement covers general ledger work, accounts payable and receivable, journal entries, reconciliations, month-end and year-end close, and the preparation of financial statements and supporting schedules.
