Abacus Accounting Center

Who We Are

At Abacus Accounting Center, we’re more than just a team of accountants—we’re strategic partners dedicated to helping our clients thrive financially. We provide accurate, insightful, and timely accounting services that empower businesses to make informed decisions. Our firm prides itself on professionalism, trust, and a culture of continuous learning. We invest in our people, processes, and technology to ensure we deliver top-tier service while maintaining a supportive, flexible work environment.

We have a strong commitment and passion for finding better, more modern ways to do things—whether that's improving internal workflows, enhancing client experiences, or making Abacus an even better place to work. We believe in thoughtful innovation: embracing change when it creates real value, improving processes to deliver a more seamless client experience, and continually building a workplace that supports growth and well-being. While we are committed to progress, we are equally mindful to ensure that changes are meaningful and purposeful.

Who You Are

You are an experienced accounting professional with a deep understanding of financial reporting, client relationship management, and workflow optimization. You’re a self-starter who values autonomy and takes pride in delivering precise, meaningful work. Your technical skills are sharp—particularly in platforms like QuickBooks—and you're adept at navigating complex reconciliations, reporting processes, and client communications. You enjoy solving problems, streamlining operations, and contributing to a collaborative, high-integrity team.

You don’t just complete tasks—you elevate processes. In this role, you’ll contribute to continuous improvement by identifying inefficiencies, documenting best practices, and offering solutions that support the overall quality and scalability of our work. You bring a mindset focused on progress and consistency, which helps us maintain high standards as we grow. Your ability to think critically, standardize workflows, and maintain internal documentation is just as important as your technical skills. You play a vital part in making the work smoother not only for clients, but for the team as a whole.

What to Expect from Abacus

At Abacus, we balance a healthy respect for proven processes with a passion for improvement. We are always looking for smarter, more efficient ways to work—enhancing our client experience, refining internal operations, and making Abacus a workplace where people can truly thrive. Change for its own sake isn’t our goal; instead, we thoughtfully pursue innovations that create real value, support growth, and ensure we remain a forward-thinking firm where excellence and opportunity go hand in hand.

At Abacus, you’ll also find an environment that encourages autonomy, supports your professional growth, and recognizes your contributions. We respect your expertise and give you the space to apply it thoughtfully. You’ll have access to up-to-date tools (like QuickBooks Online and Desktop, Microsoft Excel, and our internal portals), ongoing education opportunities, and a team that values open communication and mutual accountability. We’re committed to your success and want you to feel confident, supported, and challenged in your role.

We also have well-established processes and systems that support effective remote work. Our team includes experienced remote employees across multiple time zones, and we are skilled at maintaining communication, collaboration, and service quality in a flexible work environment.

What We Expect from You

As a Full-Charge Bookkeeper/Accountant, you are trusted to take full ownership of your work. We expect you to manage your client portfolio with minimal supervision, meet deadlines consistently, and communicate clearly both internally and externally. You’ll need to apply sound judgment in your day-to-day decisions, while remaining open to feedback and committed to continuous learning. Mastery is the goal—both in the technical aspects of your role and in the quality of service you provide to clients. We count on your ability to work independently, stay organized, and maintain a high standard across all your responsibilities.

Your Responsibilities

You’ll be responsible for preparing and reviewing financial statements, completing reconciliations, and managing client accounts from end to end. This includes maintaining clean, accurate records and ensuring that financial information is current and client-ready at all times. Although the scope of work will vary among the clients, you will ultimately oversee 35–40 clients. Your work will also include the preparation and filing of sales tax returns across multiple jurisdictions, along with reviewing and entering accounts payable transactions to ensure timeliness and accuracy. Additionally, you will be responsible for low-volume payroll processing and are expected to be familiar with quarterly and year-end payroll filings.

You’ll serve as the go-to advisor for your assigned clients—building relationships based on trust, insight, and consistency. You’ll look beyond the numbers to identify opportunities for improvement and added value. Clear, timely, and accurate deliverables are a must, and your ability to align work with each client’s expectations and goals will be key to your success.

Requirements

We expect Full-Charge Bookkeepers/Accountants at Abacus to have a strong foundation in financial reporting, significant hands-on experience with QuickBooks (Online and Desktop), and a proven ability to manage multiple priorities with accuracy and professionalism. Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, are essential, along with a commitment to ethical, high-quality work. Familiarity with sales tax platforms, accounts payable workflows, client portals, and time tracking systems is a plus.  Additionally, candidates must have at least one year of experience successfully working in a remote environment.  Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who is dependable, detail-oriented, and excited to grow within our firm.
