ABOUT THE ROLE
A local animal shelter is looking for an experienced Bookkeeper to join their team on a part-time, hybrid basis. This is a hands-on accounting position for someone who is comfortable owning the day-to-day books, processing payroll, handling reconciliations, and working independently.
You’ll work directly with the Executive Director on budgeting and help keep the organization’s financial records accurate, organized, and audit-ready.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
-
Maintain the general ledger and organized accounting files.
-
Process Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable.

Compile documentation for the annual audit.
-
Work directly with the Executive Director on budgeting.
-
Handle day-to-day accounting responsibilities independently.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
5+ YEARS OF QUICKBOOKS EXPERIENCE – REQUIRED
This is the biggest screening requirement. Candidates must have substantial hands-on experience using QuickBooks for day-to-day accounting functions.

Additional experience we're looking for:

Ability to independently process payroll.

Understanding of payroll accounting and payroll tax reporting.
