Job Description
Do you love the paperwork and manual processes that go along with bookkeeping? Do you resist learning new technologies? If so, don’t bother applying.
Who we are
We believe entrepreneurs can change the world. Our role is to help them navigate their financial blind spot with intuitive financial information to support better decision-making.
For entrepreneurs to change the world, we must completely change how financial information is managed and delivered. In a survey of over 10,000 SME owners, 40% of entrepreneurs think accounting and taxes are the
worst
part of owning a business. The result is almost always the avoidance of all things accounting-related leasing, leading to a financial crisis.
But there is a better way. It’s what we do, and it’s different from what’s out there. We’ve developed a system to empower entrepreneurs and turn accounting from a source of
pain
to a source of
power .
Automated, systemized, simple. We’re changing accounting for the better.
Our promise to customers
In less than 15 minutes per month, our clients will
Clearly understand their financial position
Understand the top 3-5 issues facing their business from a financial perspective
Have a plan of action to address those issues
Understand the non-issues they don’t have to worry about
All of this can be accomplished for the clients without them ever having to open a set of financial statements (which they likely don’t understand, anyway),
What we do
We outsource accounting for service-based businesses with $2mm to $15mm in revenue. While we handle the day-to-day bookkeeping and controllership function for our clients, we stand apart through our:
Data visualization
Deep dive into financial analytics and insights
Prioritization of critical issues
Translation of “accounting speak” into entrepreneurial language, making it understandable and actionable for the entrepreneur.

You love implementing and working with cloud-based accounting software such as QBO, Dext, Plooto, PayEdge, etc.
You love being part of a high-performance team and working closely with other accounting professionals and clients.
You work well within established processes and procedures, but are not afraid to speak up if something isn’t working.

uncapped time off , allowing you to recharge as needed, and
scheduled flexibility
