Accounting Manager

About Builder Bookkeep

Our vision is to be the best construction accounting company in the country by offering the perfect blend of people and technology. We have our own app that clients use to work with us and employees use to streamline the entire accounting process, making bookkeeping pain free for us and the client. 

We love pushing the boundaries of what an accounting firm should like in the digital age. We’re 100% online, fully paperless, and serving businesses in 14 states. We don’t believe in billing by the hour or in managing employees with timesheets. Instead, we get paid in proportion to the value we provide our clients, and we expect employees to do their best in contributing to that value without being micromanaged. 

About the Role

As an Accounting Manager, you will be responsible for your own set of clients, or book of business if you will, and have the opportunity to impact a lot of small businesses and their employees. You will also have a bookkeeping/admin assistant and eventually have the opportunity of growing a larger team.
