JOB OVERVIEW

About us
We're a fast-growing dropshipping company serving customers worldwide. We run high-volume online stores across multiple payment platforms and currencies, so accurate, on-time finance work keeps our business running smoothly.

About the role
We're looking for a detail-oriented Finance Assistant to support our day-to-day finance operations. You'll own bank and payment reconciliations, monitor transactions across our stores, and keep our records accurate and on time. You'll also use AI tools to work faster and smarter.

What you'll do

Reconcile bank accounts and payment platforms (e.g., Shopify Payments, PayPal, Stripe) daily, weekly, and monthly
Monitor high-volume transactions and flag unusual, duplicate, or missing entries
Track refunds, chargebacks, payment processor fees, and supplier payments
Handle multi-currency transactions and currency conversion differences
Maintain financial records and trackers in Excel and Google Sheets
Help with month-end close tasks and reporting deadlines
Use AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to speed up data cleanup, formulas, and reporting
Spot issues early and raise them before they become problems

What we're looking for

Proficient in Excel and Google Sheets: VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, pivot tables, data cleaning
Hands-on experience with bank reconciliation and transaction monitoring
Strong attention to detail. You notice when numbers don't add up.
Open to using AI tools in your daily workflow
Proactive and reliable with deadlines. You don't wait to be told twice.
Able to work independently and manage your own time
Plus: experience with e-commerce or dropshipping finance, Shopify, PayPal, or Stripe
Background in accounting, finance, or a related field is a plus
Stable internet connection and a reliable work setup

Details

Schedule: Full-time, around 40 hours/week, flexible and output-based
Setup: Remote
Rate: USD 3/hour (about USD 520/month at 40 hours/week)
We care about results: tasks done accurately and on time matter more than hours logged
1-month evaluation period, with the opportunity for a long-term position if passed
