Bookkeeper / Staff Accountant - US

About the Role

We are hiring a Bookkeeper to own the accounting function for a portfolio of 4 to 6 US clients. Each client is a small-to-mid-sized US business from $500K to $5M in annual revenue. Your job is to keep their books clean, close on time every month, and produce financial reports their executives can actually use.

You will work closely with a Delivery Manager who handles all client communication. Your focus is entirely on execution - accurate books, clean reconciliations, on-time close. No client calls required. The Delivery Manager presents your work; you make sure the work is airtight.

What You'll Own

• Monthly bookkeeping for 4–6 US clients simultaneously - categorization, reconciliation, close
• Monthly invoicing for clients who need it - primarily via QuickBooks Online
• Stripe and payment processor reconciliation - match payouts to QBO accurately every month
• Monthly close - completed by the 5th business day, every month, for every client
• Monthly financial reports - P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement per client
• Cash flow tracking and light projections - flag anything unusual to the Delivery Manager
• Maintain clean, organized books that can withstand a CPA or auditor review at any time

You Must Have

• 3+ years bookkeeping or accounting experience, preferably for US-based clients
• QuickBooks Online - strong independent working knowledge, not just basic data entry
• Experience handling multiple clients at the same time - you are organized and never miss a deadline
• Stripe or payment processor reconciliation experience
• Ability to produce clean, management-ready P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow reports
• Strong attention to detail - you catch your own errors before anyone else does
• Available full-time on US business hours
• Good written English for internal communication with the Delivery Manager

Nice to Have

• Experience working for a US-facing BPO, KPO, or accounting outsourcing firm
• Familiarity with SaaS, tech, or subscription-based business models
• B.Com, MBA Finance, CA Inter, or equivalent qualification
• Experience with payroll processing (Gusto, ADP, or similar)
• Exposure to US GAAP basics

What This Role Is NOT

• You will not be on client calls — the Delivery Manager owns all client communication
• This is not a single-client dedicated role — you will manage a portfolio and must stay organized across all of them
• This is not a data-entry-only job — we expect you to think critically about the numbers and flag anomalies proactively

What Success Looks Like at 90 Days

• All client books are clean, current, and reconciled with zero backlogs
• Monthly close is hitting the 5th business day deadline consistently across all clients
• Delivery Manager is never chasing you for reports or updates - you deliver ahead of schedule
• Zero client complaints about financial accuracy

Compensation

Based on experience. Stable, long-term position with a growing company. As we add more clients, your portfolio grows and so does your value here.

How to Apply

Please submit via email to reena@theesbcorp.com:

• Your expected salary and availability to start
