Job Description
Senior Bookkeeper — Remote \| Part\-Time W\-2 \| $28–$35/hr
**Spero Business Solutions is hiring an experienced Senior Bookkeeper to join our growing remote team.**
This is a part\-time W\-2 position of approximately **25–30 hours per week**, with room to grow. We offer flexible scheduling and fully remote work, but **consistent weekday daytime availability is required** for client communication and team collaboration.
This is a senior\-level role for someone who already has strong full\-charge bookkeeping skills and is comfortable taking ownership of client books with limited oversight.
We work with a variety of businesses and organizations, including complex and multi\-entity clients. Some books are clean and established. Others come to us because something has gone wrong and they need someone capable of figuring out **what happened, why it happened, and how to fix it.**
What you'll do
* Independently manage bookkeeping for assigned clients from transaction\-level work through month\-end close and financial reporting
* Review balance sheets and income statements for accuracy and identify items that don't make sense
* Perform bank, credit card, loan, and balance\-sheet reconciliations
* Investigate discrepancies rather than simply carrying them forward
* Take over existing books and identify historical errors, incomplete reconciliations, misclassifications, and other problems
* Complete complex bookkeeping cleanups and catch\-up projects
* Communicate directly and professionally with clients when information or clarification is needed
* Manage deadlines and proactively communicate when something may prevent you from meeting one
* Document your work and leave a clear trail for another team member to understand
* Learn and work within accounting and industry\-specific software beyond QuickBooks Online
You may be a great fit if you:
* Have **at least 5 years of hands\-on bookkeeping experience**, including significant full\-charge responsibility
* Have advanced working knowledge of **QuickBooks Online**
* Can independently take a set of books through month\-end close
* Understand the balance sheet—not just how to categorize transactions
* Know how to investigate when accounts don't reconcile or financial statements don't make sense
* Are comfortable inheriting messy books and methodically untangling them
* Take ownership of problems rather than waiting for someone else to tell you every next step
* Communicate early when you need information, encounter a problem, or aren't sure about something
* Are highly accurate without becoming paralyzed by ambiguity
* Enjoy being part of a bookkeeping firm and **are looking for a long\-term employee role rather than building your own bookkeeping practice**
Especially valuable experience
Experience in any of the following is a significant plus:
* Property management or HOA accounting
* Multi\-entity accounting
* Nonprofit accounting
* Grant accounting and restricted funds
* Accrual\-basis accounting
