Accounting Manager (Remote)
* ACTIVELY HIRING *
We are Hiring for our Full Time Bookkeeping Manager to lead, coach, and develop our remote team of bookkeepers and deliver excellence for our clients to meet or exceed our company's high reputation. You will report directly to our CEO, and you will also carry your own portfolio of accounts so you stay close to the work your team does every day.
BBA Bookkeeping is a professional, personable, and fun-loving virtual bookkeeping firm that goes beyond the numbers. We're on a mission to build a remote team and business that is, simply, an amazing place to work.
As the Bookkeeping Manager for BBA, your days will be split between multiple needs. A fair estimate of your week looks like:
Owning a wide variety of client accounts from simple to complex - About 60% of the role
Driving team performance through accountability, support, and training - About 30%+ of the role
Documenting and continually refining repeatable processes - About 5%+ of the role
Ideal Candidates will do far more than data entry. If you are strategic, think about clients' books through an accounting lens and truly look for ways to continually optimize clients' accounts to create ease and efficiency, this may be the place for you. That's what makes us badass (not basic!) bookkeepers.
Bring your adaptability and curiosity to ensure the needs of a growing firm to set you up for success. We are always testing new tools and building better processes, and AI is a real part of how we work now. We nerd out with clients over their balance sheet.
As our Bookkeeping Manager, you are the calm in the room. Deadlines and messy books don't rattle you, and your team is steadier because of it. You like training and delivering feedback that ensures the team's success.
As a team, we thrive on collaboration, testing out the latest tech in bookkeeping, and a healthy dose of memes in our #watercooler Slack channel. We foster an inclusive and supportive work environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to succeed. We proudly align with the LGBTQIA+ community and thrive as a women-owned business, not as buzzwords, but as values that guide how we show up every day.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
Serve as a go-to resource and mentor for bookkeepers who need help troubleshooting, understanding complex accounting principles, or improving workflow efficiency
Manage, coach, and develop direct report bookkeeping team including monitoring and reporting of KPIs and facilitating accountability and successful results of bookkeepers to continually improve task progress and performance
Track and analyze team workload and capacity, make recommendations to leadership team on bookkeeper assignments and utilization
Make recommendations to the CEO and leadership team on account transitions and coverage, hiring and onboarding/training new bookkeepers, and internal system improvements
Contribute and serve as a reliable example to a culture of warmth, accountability, and continuous learning
Perform detailed QA reviews of monthly financial reports across a rotating portfolio of clients to ensure team performance meets or exceeds company standards and individual KPIs
Identify inconsistencies, errors, or process gaps, and document actionable feedback for CEO approval in relevant platforms as we continually refine processes
Identify and present topics to the leadership team on company wide training needs; plan and facilitate approved training and mentoring sessions
Demonstrate and maintain strong understanding of accrual-based accounting, GAAP principles, and train others (internal and external) ensuring development of financial acumen
Serve as first point of escalation for Bookkeepers requiring triage for issues
Supervise month-end close process and timeliness with each Bookkeeper with a focus on accuracy and best practices, and provide technical accounting insight on edge-case scenarios
Perform and oversee advanced bookkeeping: journal entries, job costing, payroll reconciliation, month-end close, deferred revenue, sales tax, profit and loss statements, balance sheet reviews, cleanup work, and ongoing client support in collaboration with Bookkeeping team
Interpret financial data to identify inconsistencies, clean-up needs, and optimization of business, expense management, and profitability opportunities for clients
Cultivate and manage direct customer/client relationships with new and existing clients
Serve as back up to new client onboarding, cleanups, system setups, and ongoing service delivery
