About Highrise Repair

Highrise Repair is a specialized commercial waterproofing company serving commercial building owners and property managers. We protect and restore building exteriors to preserve long-term asset value.

Our clients expect professionalism, responsiveness, and precision — and we hold ourselves to the same standard internally.

We value accountability, efficiency, and initiative. We are building a strong operational foundation and are looking for someone who wants to contribute meaningfully — not just complete tasks.

The Role

We are seeking a highly organized, self-directed Administrative & Accounting Assistant to support financial processes, office operations, and client coordination.

This position requires someone who:

• Works independently without constant supervision
• Takes ownership of outcomes
• Communicates confidently and professionally
• Understands the importance of detail and follow-through
• Actively improves systems rather than maintaining inefficiencies

If you require heavy daily oversight, this will not be the right fit.

Core ResponsibilitiesAccounting & Financial Support

• Manage Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
• Process invoices and vendor payments accurately and on time
• Monitor receivables and conduct professional follow-up
• Maintain organized, audit-ready digital records
• Assist with monthly bookkeeping support
• Work within QuickBooks or similar accounting software
• Research and compare workers’ compensation and general liability insurance policies

Office & Operations Support

• Assist with scheduling and internal coordination
• Help plan and execute customer appreciation events
• Coordinate with vendors and subcontractors
• Identify and implement process improvements

Client & Vendor Communication

• Professionally communicate with commercial property managers and building owners
• Support follow-up and relationship-building initiatives
• Represent the company with clarity and professionalism

What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)

• Financial tasks handled accurately and on time
• AR follow-ups completed without reminders
• Organized systems that reduce leadership oversight
• Professional, confident client communication
• Demonstrated initiative and problem-solving

Compensation will be reviewed at 90 days based on performance, ownership, and contribution — not tenure alone.

Qualifications

• Experience with AP/AR or bookkeeping
• QuickBooks or similar accounting software experience preferred
• Strong organizational and time-management skills
• High attention to detail
• Clear and professional communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple responsibilities independently
• Construction or service-industry experience is a plus

Why Join Highrise Repair?

• Established, growing company
• Professional commercial client base
• Clear performance expectations
• Compensation growth tied to contribution
• Opportunity to expand into broader operational responsibilities

We are building a strong, accountable team. If you are dependable, proactive, and take pride in your work, we encourage you to apply.

If you’d like, I can now:

• Make this slightly more premium to attract higher-level candidates
• Tighten it further to discourage underqualified applicants
• Or help you write a short LinkedIn intro post to announce you're hiring (which often attracts better candidates than the job board alone)
