Job Description

The Bookkeeper supports the agency's finance team by managing day-to-day accounting functions within Workamajig, the agency's project management and accounting platform. This role works cross-functionally with project managers and account leads to ensure billable time, expenses, and client invoices are captured accurately and processed on time.

This is not a back-office role in the traditional sense. In a small agency, the bookkeeper is a key operational partner, and the right person understands how finance and creative production intersect.

Responsibilities:

• Manage accounts payable and receivable, ensuring accurate and timely processing of vendor bills and client invoices within Workamajig
• Handle project-based billing including invoicing against retainers, milestones, and time-and-materials engagements
• Reconcile bank and credit card statements on a regular cadence
• Track project budgets and flag variances to finance and project management leadership
• Support monthly close activities including journal entries and financial reporting
• Coordinate with project managers and account leads to ensure billable time and expenses are captured accurately
• Maintain organized financial records in compliance with agency policies

Requirements:

• 3 years of bookkeeping or accounting experience in an agency or creative services environment
• Hands-on experience with Workamajig is required, this is a hard requirement, not a nice to have
• Solid understanding of general accounting principles including AR, AP, reconciliation, and month-end close
• Experience with project-based and retainer billing models
• High attention to detail with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously
• Strong communication skills and comfort working cross-functionally with non-finance teammates
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment with minimal oversight

Nice to Have:

• Experience supporting finance leadership through audits or annual reporting cycles
• Familiarity with integrated time tracking and resource planning workflows in Workamajig
