JOB OVERVIEW

ACCOUNTING MANAGER / DIRECTOR OF ACCOUNTING
Bookkeeping Firm Leadership Role (Remote)

We are hiring a highly experienced accounting professional to take operational ownership of accounting oversight for an established remote bookkeeping firm.

Firm ownership is stepping out of daily accounting management. This role ensures the firm continues running smoothly by providing technical leadership, reviewing work, supporting bookkeepers, and ensuring client deliverables are accurate and on time.
