Job description

Job Summary

Scott’s Business Services | Greater Los Angeles Area | Primarily remote

It’s the last week of the month.

The bank statement says $14,212.08. QuickBooks says $14,187.08. That’s a $25 difference.

You sort the register by amount and start digging. A duplicate fee? A deposit posted to the wrong month?

20 minutes later, you find it: a refund entered twice. You fix it, and the account balances.

If that sounds like a good afternoon, we should talk.
