Job description

About Altstadt Hoffman Plumbing

Altstadt Hoffman Plumbing is a full-service plumbing company based in Evansville, Indiana. Founded in 1984, the company has built a reputation for reliable and efficient plumbing services across the tri-state area of Indiana, Kentucky, and Illinois. We specialize in residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing, including new construction, remodeling, emergency repairs, and maintenance. We're known for quality craftsmanship, competitive pricing, and timely project completion.

Overview

We're looking for a Junior Accountant to own the day-to-day bookkeeping for our Evansville operation and help keep the office running. This is a multi-purpose role.

You'll need a solid accounting foundation, whether from a degree or from hands-on experience, so you can step in quickly and learn our systems. You'll get exposure to the full accounting cycle and work directly with our leadership team. It's a strong fit for an accounting graduate who wants real ownership early, or for an experienced bookkeeper who wants a stable, established company.
