Are you looking for a place where you can use your accounting skills, continue learning, and actually enjoy the people you work with?

We might be your kind of people!

At Balanced Bookkeeping & Advisory Services, we're a growing team of accounting professionals who help small businesses and nonprofits keep their finances on track. We take our work seriously, but we don't believe work has to be boring!

We value teamwork, open communication, a good sense of humor, and doing things right. We're looking for an experienced bookkeeper who wants to be part of a team, not just another name on the payroll.

A Quick Note About Location

You must live within reasonable driving distance of Troy/Dayton, Ohio, to be considered.

While you'll work primarily from home, we occasionally meet in person with clients and our team. This is a locally based position, not a nationwide remote opportunity.

• Communicate with clients, answer questions, and follow up on needed information.

• Balance multiple deadlines and shift gears as client needs change.

• Occasionally help clients learn their way around QuickBooks Online.

The Must-Haves:

• At least 3 years of hands-on bookkeeping or accounting experience.

• Strong working knowledge of QuickBooks Online (not just Desktop).

• Ability to recognize when something doesn't look right and investigate why.

• Flexible Monday–Friday schedule during regular business hours.

• Work primarily from home with occasional in-person meetings.

• 401(k) with 3% company match

• Paid holidays

• One week of paid vacation after your first year.

• Monthly phone stipend.

• Company-provided laptop, second monitor, and software.

• 90-day performance review.

• Opportunities to learn, grow, and advance as our firm grows.

Why You'll Love Working With Us
