Utilize QuickBooks for tracking and managing financial transactions.

Collaborate with clients and vendors to resolve payment issues and ensure smooth financial operations.

Perform data entry tasks to maintain accurate records and reports.

Reconcile account discrepancies and investigate any financial inconsistencies.

Assist in the preparation of financial documents and reports as needed.

Maintain organized and secure documentation of all financial transactions.

Support month-end and year-end financial closing activities as required.

Requirements

At least 2 years of experience in accounting or a related field.

Strong knowledge of accounts payable and accounts receivable processes.

Excellent data entry skills with a high degree of accuracy.

Ability to process invoices and payments efficiently.
