Key Responsibilities

Review current setup (chart of accounts, vendors/customers, bank feeds) and identify gaps.

Clean up/catch up transaction coding (bank feed + manual entries): categorize, add payees/memos, and fix mis-postings.

Resolve common issues: duplicates, missing transactions (fees/interest), incorrect transfers, personal vs business items, and unmatched payments.

Strong bank reconciliation skills and solid QBO knowledge.

High attention to detail; comfortable working with messy/incomplete records.
