Job Title : Bookkeeper

Location : Remote South Africa

Work Hours : Align with U.S. Mountain Standard Time (MST)

About the Role

Our client is seeking a tech‑savvy and detail‑oriented Bookkeeper to manage accounting operations and financial compliance. This role is ideal for someone who is highly organized, comfortable with cloud‑based tools, and experienced in QuickBooks Online. The position emphasizes results and accountability rather than strict time‑based oversight.

This is a long‑term opportunity to work directly with U.S.‑based leadership supporting accounts payable (AP) reconciliations and other core bookkeeping functions. A second phase may involve expanding to accounts receivable (AR) support and use of systems such as Contractor Foreman.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage accounts payable (AP) : vendor invoice payments and expense coding.
  • Perform bank and credit card reconciliations and ensure accurate month‑end close.
  • Maintain general ledger integrity and support journal entries.
  • Handle licensing renewals, insurance compliance, and vendor documentation.
  • Assist with payroll processing, TPT tax filings, and other compliance requirements.
  • Support financial reporting and provide timely updates on account status.
  • Identify and implement process improvements to increase efficiency.

Ideal Candidate Profile

Experience : 4 years in bookkeeping or accounting, preferably with contractors or service‑based businesses.

Technical Skills

  • Proficiency in QuickBooks Online (required)
  • Strong understanding of AP reconciliations, payroll, TPT tax, and general ledger
  • Experience with job costing and month‑end close processes
  • Soft Skills : Highly organized, trustworthy, and self‑motivated; able to work independently and deliver consistent results.

    Bonus : Familiarity with Contractor Foreman or similar project management / accounting tools.

    Employment Type : Full Time

    Vacancy : 1
