Bookkeeper/Controller 🧾📊 – Remote

Company Overview Our client is a finance and advisory firm that supports founders, CEOs, and CFOs with outsourced accounting, tax, and financial operations. They work with businesses and individuals across industries — including real estate, SaaS, and investment firms — helping them manage bookkeeping, tax compliance, and financial reporting without building a full in-house team. Because the work directly impacts tax compliance, financial accuracy, and client outcomes, precision and reliability are critical.
