About the Job
You turn chaos into clean books. As a Junior Accountant / Bookkeeper with Cloud Accountant Staffing, you’ll reconcile accounts, categorize transactions, clear discrepancies, and deliver tidy, decision-ready financials—while keeping clients informed and unblocked. You’ll grow range quickly by supporting a portfolio of small businesses across industries and tools, with clear playbooks and close coaching.
About the Role
You’ll be the steady rhythm behind “month-end calm” : clean ledgers, on-time submissions, and crisp updates that clients actually understand. Expect real ownership—daily check-ins, weekly 1 : 1s, clear KPIs—and a supportive environment where SOPs, templates, and feedback loops help you get better fast. You bring the curiosity; we’ll bring the playbook.

- Post journal entries and adjustments to ensure accuracy and completeness (prepayments, accruals, reclasses).
- Maintain general ledger hygiene and keep financial records current across periods and entities.
- Prepare month-end submissions for review with clear notes on variances and outstanding items.
- Act as the primary point of contact for your assigned clients : answer questions, request documents, and unblock work through proactive, empathetic communication (written & verbal).
- Share plain-English summaries of what changed, what’s pending, and what’s next.
- Daily check-ins summarizing tasks completed, blockers, and questions; weekly 1 : 1s for goal progress.
- Hit portfolio-level KPIs (response times, quality scores, month-end & year-end delivery) with coaching and templates.
