Love Accounting? Want to Work With People Who Do, Too?

Do you enjoy solving accounting puzzles, finding that transaction that just doesn't look right, and helping businesses make sense of their numbers?

Are you looking for a place where you can use your accounting skills, continue learning, and actually enjoy the people you work with?

We might be your kind of people!

At Balanced Bookkeeping & Advisory Services, we're a growing team of accounting professionals who help small businesses and nonprofits keep their finances on track. We take our work seriously, but we don't believe work has to be boring!

We value teamwork, open communication, a good sense of humor, and doing things right. We're looking for an experienced bookkeeper who wants to be part of a team, not just another name on the payroll.

You must live within reasonable driving distance of Troy/Dayton, Ohio, to be considered.

While you'll work primarily from home, we occasionally meet in person with clients and our team. This is a locally based position, not a nationwide remote opportunity.

• Communicate with clients, answer questions, and follow up on needed information.

The Must-Haves:

• At least 3 years of hands-on bookkeeping or accounting experience.

• Strong working knowledge of QuickBooks Online (not just Desktop).

• Experience with reconciliations, month-end close, and financial statements.

• Ability to recognize when something doesn't look right and investigate why.

• Strong organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple priorities.

• Excellent communication skills and a dependable, team-oriented attitude.

• Company-provided laptop, second monitor, and software.

• 90-day performance review.

• Opportunities to learn, grow, and advance as our firm grows.

We're a team of people who genuinely enjoy what we do and believe in helping each other succeed.

You'll have the opportunity to work with different businesses, expand your accounting knowledge, and put your problem-solving skills to good use.

We believe in clear expectations, teamwork, flexibility, and work-life balance. We work hard, support one another, celebrate successes, and have a few laughs along the way.

Most importantly, we want people who are proud of their work and want to build a career with us.

If you're an experienced bookkeeper who loves numbers, enjoys solving problems, and wants to work with a great team, we'd love to hear from you!
