JOB OVERVIEW

Role Overview

We are a growing digital marketing agency looking for a detail-oriented, reliable, and experienced Part-Time Bookkeeper to manage our accounts. This is a remote, ongoing position requiring approximately 5 hours per week.

You will be responsible for keeping our books clean, categorizing agency expenses (contractor payments, software subscriptions like BrightLocal/Local Dominator, and marketing costs), and ensuring our financial records are accurate and up-to-date.

Key Responsibilities

Expense Categorization: Accurately categorize all incoming and outgoing transactions weekly in Zoho Books (including recurring software subscriptions, payroll, and client payments).

Account Reconciliation: Reconcile bank accounts, credit cards, and payment processors (e.g., Stripe, PayPal) on a monthly basis.

Financial Reporting: Generate monthly Profit & Loss (P&L) statements and balance sheets so we can track our monthly margins.

Payroll Tracking: Keep track of hours and payments for our virtual assistant team.

Invoice Management: Monitor client subscription billings and flag any failed payments or outstanding invoices.

Required Skills & Experience

Experience: At least 2+ years of professional bookkeeping experience, preferably working with digital agencies, SaaS companies, or online service providers.

Tools: Expert-level knowledge of Zoho Books (experience with Zoho Expense or other tools in the Zoho suite is a major plus).

Detail-Oriented: Exceptional organizational skills. You should be someone who spots a $5 discrepancy and wants to solve it.

Communication: Excellent written English. Since this is a 5-hour-a-week role, clear and proactive communication via email or Slack is vital.

Trustworthy: High level of integrity, as you will be dealing with sensitive financial data. (References may be requested).

Hours, Schedule & Compensation

Hours: Consistently 5 hours per week.

Schedule: Highly flexible. You can set your own hours as long as reconciliations and reports are completed on schedule every month.

Rate: Please submit your desired hourly rate with your application.

How To Apply (Screening Instructions)

To ensure you read this job description entirely and have the attention to detail required for bookkeeping, please start your cover letter by answering these three questions:

Briefly describe your experience using Zoho Books for service-based businesses or digital marketing agencies. Are you Zoho certified?

If we pay our virtual assistants on the 1st and 15th of the month, how would you prefer to receive and track their hours/invoices?
