Part-Time CPA — Periodic Financial Review (Remote)
As-needed engagement · Approximately monthly cadence · Fully remote
ABOUT DENTAL ASSISTED
Dental AssistEd is a Chicago-based occupational certificate program that trains and credentials dental assistants. We operate both a for-profit division and an affiliated nonprofit entity, and we're looking for a steady financial partner who can help us keep both in good order without requiring day-to-day bookkeeping support.
POSITION OVERVIEW
We're seeking a licensed CPA for a part-time, as-needed role focused on periodic “big-picture” financial check-ins rather than routine bookkeeping. Our books are already maintained in QuickBooks; we need an experienced set of eyes to review the numbers, confirm everything is accurate and compliant, and flag anything that needs attention before it becomes a problem. This is a great fit for a CPA who wants flexible, recurring part-time work without the demands of a full engagement.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Log in to QuickBooks roughly once a month to review transactions, reconciliations, and account balances for both the for-profit and nonprofit entities
• Spot-check for coding errors, misclassifications, or unusual activity and flag discrepancies
• Confirm the nonprofit entity's books properly separate restricted vs. unrestricted funds
• Provide a brief summary of findings and any recommended corrections after each review
• Perform a deeper review at quarter-end and year-end, and help ensure we're on track for tax filings and, for the nonprofit, annual filings such as Form 990
• Serve as an on-call resource we can reach out to with occasional financial or accounting questions
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• Active CPA license in good standing
• Hands-on experience with QuickBooks (QuickBooks Online preferred)
• Comfort working across both standard (for-profit) and nonprofit/fund accounting
• Solid grounding in GAAP and general financial statement review
• Self-directed and comfortable with a low-touch, remote, as-needed arrangement
• Prior experience supporting small businesses, education providers, or nonprofits is a plus
SCHEDULE & COMPENSATION
Commitment: A few hours per month, with additional time at quarter-end and year-end
Location: Remote — all work can be done off-site
Compensation: Hourly, commensurate with experience (rate to be discussed)
Start Date: Flexible
