Job description

Staff / Senior Accountant

Duluth, GA|Hybrid|Full-Time

Before we get into responsibilities and requirements, let's talk about who you are. Are you the kind of accountant who can't rest until every client's books are right, on time, and ready for review? Do you catch the miss before anyone else does? And are you someone who takes real ownership, communicates clearly, and doesn't need to be chased to keep things moving? If you're nodding along, keep reading. You might be exactly who we're looking for.

We're hiring a team member to own and oversee the day-to-day accounting work that keeps our clients' financials accurate and on time. You'll be the person who keeps the work moving: handling the accounting, catching what needs catching, and making sure nothing slips. The more you own, the more you'll grow.

At Right Choice, we work hard and we play hard. We take our clients' numbers seriously, just not ourselves. Expect a team that celebrates wins, laughs a lot, and has each other's backs, especially when deadlines hit.

About Us

Right Choice Accounting Solutions helps practices, agencies, and firms maximize their profits while saving A LOT in taxes. We're a full-service accounting and tax firm built for business owners who are done piecing together bookkeeping, payroll, and tax help and are ready for a team that can take their entire accounting function to the next level.

Our clients come to us as the upgrade they didn't know they needed. We're the team that makes their numbers make sense, keeps them on track, and builds the strategies that actually move the needle as they scale.

We specialize in Client Advisory Services (CAS), monthly financial reporting, bookkeeping, tax strategy, tax preparation, and payroll support. As a one-stop shop, we deliver results without the stiff, corporate vibe. Our clients trust us because we make accounting approachable, effective, and dare we say, actually enjoyable to talk about.

Proudly family-owned and CPA-led, we're not just about the numbers. We're about the people behind them. Recently featured in Forbes as "Top CPAs in Georgia", recognized as Best in County in Gwinnett multiple years in a row, and named among the Top 20 business alumni from the university where our leaders met, we're just getting started.

The Role

This role owns the day-to-day accounting work that keeps our clients' books clean, accurate, and current. You'll work closely with our leadership team and work directly with Right Choice clients. This is a key company role.

You'll manage the full accounting process across a portfolio of client companies. This includes bookkeeping oversight, preparing journal entries, processing payroll, supporting month-end close, and keeping every client on schedule. We're looking for someone who knows the difference between what to fix and what to flag, and keeps leadership in the loop the whole time.

Key Responsibilities:

Oversight & Workflow

• Categorize transactions in QuickBooks Online accurately and completely
• Perform bank and credit card reconciliations across a portfolio of client companies
• Clean up and correct existing books where needed

Client & Team Communication

• Work directly with clients
• Communicate regularly and clearly with the team on status, blockers, and needs
• Use Right Choice systems and communication methods to stay "in the loop" with the team
• Never guess. Always use the team as a resource when things are unclear.

Growth Opportunities

• Plenty of room to grow as we grow
• Opportunities to transition into the Client Advisory Services (CAS) team
• Advancement based on results, not years in the seat

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (required)
• 2+ years of hands-on accounting or bookkeeping experience
• Experience reviewing others' work, overseeing day-to-day productivity, and managing multiple clients' books at once (preferred)

Bonus Points

• Experience running payroll in Gusto
• Experience with professional service businesses (firms, agencies, and practices)
• A track record of accurate, low-rework work that needs minimal correction
• Experience using ClickUp and Slack

Work Schedule

Let's be honest. Who really needs an 8-hour workday every single day? Not us! Even on in-office days, once the work is done, so are you. We value results over hours.

Training is in-office at our Duluth, GA location. After training, this role is hybrid. Everyone at Right Choice is available between 10 AM and 3 PM, Monday through Friday, with all Mondays in-office and most Fridays remote.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive salary

Probationary Period:

A 90-day probationary period allows us to assess performance, cultural fit, and alignment with company goals. We use this time to make sure the role is a great fit for both of us, while giving you the chance to shine.
