Job Description – Financial Report Bookkeeper
ABOUT THE ROLE
As a Financial Reporting Bookkeeper, you’ll own the monthly close process for a portfolio of community accounts, translating daily financial activity into accurate, GAAP-compliant statements that Community Managers and leadership rely on to make decisions.
The role combines strong technical bookkeeping (debits, credits, GL coding, and accruals), a disciplined monthly reporting cadence, and clear, proactive communication with Community Managers and internal stakeholders. If you’re detail-oriented, comfortable working against a fixed monthly schedule, and confident explaining financial statements to non-accounting audiences, you’ll thrive in this role.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
— Debits and credits (financial entries)
- Understand the fundamentals of debits and credits (the balance each account holds)
— Prepare and enter general ledger journal entries, ensuring proper coding (GL Codes) and that appropriate accruals are in place
— Verify entries posted by corresponding departments
— Ensure all entries are done in accordance with GAAP and AICPA standards (compliance check)
— Prepare a minimum of 70-75 financial statements monthly per time-mandated schedules
— Key/approve annual budgets prepared by Community Managers
- Review approved/entered data (not a priority at the moment)
— Collaborate and communicate with Community Managers regarding financial statements
- Review financial statements and communicate (via phone/email/SMS) with the Community Manager as needed (for gaps/disputes) – or to the Dedicated Service Coordinator (DSC), who will then coordinate directly with the bookkeepers
— Perform other tasks at the direction of leadership
— Other duties as assigned (ad hoc – admin/accounting tasks)
You’ll Also Be Expected To:
- Adhere to internal controls, Core Values, Company Promises, and Service Level Commitments
- Adhere to policies and procedures as they relate to financial activities
TOOLS YOU’LL USE
- MS Teams
- MS Word
- MS Excel
- O365 / MS Outlook
- Shared Drive (to be finalized)
- Linux (DL4)
- CommunityPro 1
- CommunityPro 2
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
- Excellent written and oral skills are required
- Proficient in Microsoft Office software, including Word, Excel, Teams, and Outlook
- Strong analytical skills; detail-oriented
- Tech-savvy
- Must be a self-starter, organized, and have the ability to plan and manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment
- Exhibit high energy and a positive attitude, with the ability to collaborate well with internal and external customers
- Adaptable to change
- Understanding of debits and credits
- Someone with an accounting background and/or past experience in the same field
- Someone who can interact with both internal and potentially, external clients
