This role is NOT for beginners, trainees, or anyone learning on the job.
We are starting from scratch in Xero, and I am not an accounting expert. I need someone who knows what they are doing, can take ownership, and set things up correctly from day one.
If you have strong experience with Xero, ecommerce, and US businesses, this will be a long-term role.
WHAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
* Full Xero setup from scratch (chart of accounts, structure, best practices)
* Weekly bookkeeping and reconciliation
* Reconciling transactions from Stripe, PayPal, Wise, and bank accounts
* Proper categorization of revenue and expenses
* Ecommerce bookkeeping for digital products and digital services
* Monthly financial reports (Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet)
* Cash flow tracking
* Sales tax tracking for US-based ecommerce
* Inventory or cost tracking where applicable
* Coordinating clean books for US CPA or tax filing
* Proactively flagging issues and advising on best practices
BONUS (NOT REQUIRED BUT PREFERRED)
* Payroll knowledge
* Experience with catch-up or cleanup bookkeeping
REQUIREMENTS
You must have:
* Proven experience with Xero
* Experience working with US-based businesses
* Strong ecommerce accounting background
* Experience with Stripe, PayPal, and online payment processors
* Ability to work independently without hand-holding
* Strong attention to detail and accuracy
Do not apply if:
* You are new to accounting
* You are learning Xero
* You have never handled US ecommerce bookkeeping
* You need constant instructions or supervision
WORK HOURS AND STRUCTURE
* Flexible schedule
* No required overlap with US hours
* Estimated 20-40 hours per week
* Additional hours initially for setup and catch-up
* Long-term role for the right person
PAY
We are willing to pay for quality. This is not a low-budget role.
Please include your expected hourly rate with your application.
HOW TO APPLY
When applying, please include:
1. Your Xero experience (years and types of businesses)
2. Your ecommerce accounting experience
3. Your experience with US-based clients
4. Tools you have worked with (Stripe, PayPal, Wise, etc.)
