## Job description

Remote · Part-time (4–6 hours/day) · Pacific Time, 9:00 AM–2:00 PM
About the role
Our client is a vacation rental business that needs a detail-oriented, tech-savvy bookkeeper to keep their books accurate and up to date. You'll own the day-to-day accounting, from reconciliations to owner payouts, and work directly with the owner, with support from an external accountant and a CPA at tax time.
This role is a great fit for someone who takes ownership, catches small details before they become problems, and looks for ways to work faster and with fewer errors, using integrations, copy-paste and automation instead of manual data entry.
Requirements
Manage the daily bookkeeping in QuickBooks, including transactions coming in from booking platform integrations.
Complete bank and account reconciliations accurately and on time.
Prepare owner payouts each month, which is the busiest week of the month.
Maintain the balance sheet and track the P&L so the owner always has a clear view of the business.
Support the CPA with tax preparation, organizing documents and records.
Check in daily and send an end-of-day report with what was completed, what's pending and any issues.
Spot errors and inconsistencies early and propose better ways to keep the books clean.
What success looks like
First month: You've taken ownership of the day-to-day books, you catch the small details, and the owner can trust your accounting work.
By month 3: Owner payouts and reconciliations are completed on time, and the balance sheet and P&L are up to date.
By month 6: You're supporting the CPA with tax preparation.
Tools you will use
QuickBooks: primary accounting tool, with integrations from booking platforms
Property management system
Google Sheets and Google Drive
Slack and WhatsApp: daily communication
Who you are
Experienced bookkeeper or accountant: solid accounting knowledge and hands-on experience with reconciliations, balance sheets and P&L.
QuickBooks proficient: comfortable working in QuickBooks every day, including bank feeds and integrations.
Strong in spreadsheets: confident with Google Sheets for tracking, reconciling and reporting.
Tech-savvy and accurate: you avoid manual entry errors by using integrations, copy-paste and smart workflows.
Proactive and self-directed: you take ownership, flag issues before you're asked, and keep the owner informed.
Clear communicator: strong written and spoken English, and comfortable sending concise daily updates.
Available on Pacific Time from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
Strong plus: US tax experience.
Nice to have: accounting experience in real estate, vacation rentals (Airbnb, VRBO) or hotels, including owner payouts.
Schedule
Part-time, 4–6 hours per day, tentatively 9:00 AM–2:00 PM Pacific Time.
Steady workload, with one busier week each month during owner payout preparation.
Part-time in the long term, with openness to revisit hours as the business grows.

Fully remote
Weekly pay
