Full Charge Bookkeeper

Full-Charge Bookkeeper / Enrolled Agent

Four Rivers Accounting — Where your expertise makes a real difference

If you've ever felt like your talents were going toward serving clients who barely noticed — or wondered what it would be like to see the direct impact of your work on real, local businesses — Four Rivers Accounting may be exactly what you've been looking for.

We're a small, family-owned accounting firm with a clear mission: give the small businesses and non-profits of our community access to serious, professional accounting services at a price they can actually afford. We do this by keeping our overhead low and our relationships high. We're looking for a full-time bookkeeper who either holds an IRS Enrolled Agent (EA) credential or is ready and willing to pursue it — someone who takes pride in clean books, enjoys working with real people and real businesses, and wants to be part of a tight-knit team that genuinely cares about the work we do.

What you'll do

• Maintain accurate records across multiple small-business and non-profit client accounts
• Reconcile bank and credit card statements on a regular basis
• Process accounts payable and receivable
• Assist with payroll processing and reporting
• Prepare financial reports and support our accountants at tax time
• As an EA (or once credentialed): represent clients before the IRS in audits, appeals, and collections
• Communicate directly with clients in a professional, friendly manner
• Help shape the direction and culture of a growing firm

What we're looking for

• Proven bookkeeping experience (2+ years preferred)
• Enrolled Agent (EA) credential — or a genuine commitment to obtaining it; we'll support you along the way
• Proficiency in QuickBooks and/or similar accounting software
• Experience with small business or non-profit clients strongly preferred
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple client accounts simultaneously
• Strong interpersonal skills — our clients are people, not account numbers
• Self-directed and comfortable working independently in a small-office environment
• Genuine interest in community-oriented work and mission-driven clients
