Perform full-cycle accounting, including transaction coding, bank and credit card reconciliations, and general ledger maintenance. Prepare and post adjusting journal entries and support month-end close processes. Prepare and finalize monthly financial statements. Review work when applicable and ensure accuracy of account classifications and reporting. Prepare individual and business tax returns during busy season. Communicate with clients as needed to gather documentation and clarify transactions (initially limited client-facing responsibility). Utilize QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online extensively as a power user. Qualifications 5+ years of accounting/tax experience, preferably within a public accounting environment (candidates with 8-10+ years are encouraged to apply).
