About Clarity Accounting

Clarity Accounting is a remote bookkeeping and advisory firm that partners with growth-oriented, service-based businesses. We help our clients gain accurate, reliable financials so they can make confident decisions and focus on what matters most in their business.

Our team is collaborative, dependable, and relationship-focused. We value accountability, curiosity, and proactive communication. We take our work seriously, but we also genuinely enjoy working together. You can expect a positive, flexible environment with thoughtful leadership and teammates who care about doing excellent work.

About the Role

We are hiring a bookkeeper to support a portfolio of client accounts. You will own the accuracy of the books, complete month-end close, and communicate clearly with both clients and internal team members.

The ideal candidate brings a passion for client success and financial accuracy, strong QuickBooks experience, and a solid understanding of balance sheets and P&L statements.

We expect this role to start part-time at approximately 25 hours per week, with the intention to grow to full-time within six months based on performance and firm needs. Candidates must be willing and able to commit to this transition timeline.

While the schedule is flexible, we do ask that at least four hours fall within standard business hours from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM ET to support team and client collaboration.

This role is fully remote. We are currently considering candidates who reside in Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, or Texas. Overseas applicants will not be considered.

• Process or coordinate payroll and related filings when included in client scope
• Prepare and file sales tax returns and 1099s as applicable
• Support budgeting, cash flow tracking, and financial reporting
• Communicate with clients to gather information, answer questions, and support monthly financial discussions
• Follow internal SOPs, document work consistently, and communicate proactively with team members and leadership when issues or capacity concerns arise

Qualifications

• 3+ years of small business bookkeeping experience, preferably in a multi-client environment
• Strong proficiency in QuickBooks Online. QBO certification is a plus
• Working knowledge of accrual and cash-basis accounting
• Experience with payroll platforms and common accounting technology tools
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage deadlines independently
• Comfortable working remotely within structured systems and clear expectations
