Accountant Lead & Full-Charge Bookkeeper — Own Our Books & Grow

want to work in heat pumps? let’s talk.

We’re not looking for someone to just keep the books. We’re looking for someone to own the numbers which steer a company that is doubling in size and one that needs a true accountant

Just Heat Pumps is a fast-growing Denver-based heat pump installation company focused 100% on high-performance heat pump systems. We’re obsessed with craftsmanship, clear communication, and getting the details right, from the job site to the books.

We are looking for a part-time, skilled, honest, and eager-to-grow accountant to start immediately, with a long term vision of moving towards full time and towards a controller department position. We prefer those local to the Denver area with local travel ability from time to time for team and customer activities.

You’ll work from home most of the time and your schedule is flexible. You don’t have to know every rebate program or tax filing on day one, but you need to be honest about what you know and what you do not. You need to be eager to learn and thrive on to‑the‑penny accounting. You don’t need HVAC experience and you don’t need controller experience yet. You need to be disciplined, trustworthy, and detail‑obsessed.
