Anaheim, CA (On-Site)
$24–$28/hour (DOE)
Full-Time | Monday–Friday | 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM
About Us
We are a fast-paced manufacturing company in Anaheim with a strong reputation for precision, reliability, and quick turnaround. Every order, invoice, and transaction must be accurate — and that starts with our accounting team.
We are looking for a highly detail-oriented Accounting Assistant who takes ownership of their work and catches mistakes before they become problems.
This is not a passive data-entry role — this is a precision role.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
- Enter and reconcile vendor invoices, customer payments, and credit card transactions
- Manage accounts payable and receivable with a high level of accuracy
- Identify, investigate, and resolve discrepancies (not just flag them)
- Process returns, refunds, and shipping claims (UPS/FedEx)
- Communicate professionally with vendors and customers regarding billing issues
What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)
- Transactions entered with near-zero errors
- Discrepancies caught before they impact customers or reporting
- Organized systems that allow fast retrieval of any document
- Reduced need for oversight from management
What We’re Looking For
- Minimum 1 year of accounting, bookkeeping, or AP/AR experience
- Strong Excel and computer skills
- Experience with Sage 50 or similar accounting software (preferred)
- Exceptional attention to detail (this will be tested)
- Strong sense of ownership — you fix problems, not pass them along
- Reliable, punctual, and consistent
Why This Role Matters
Your work directly impacts:
- Customer satisfaction
- Financial accuracy
- Operational efficiency
We value people who take pride in doing things right the first time.
What We Offer
- Competitive pay ($24–$28 per hour)
- Stable, long-term position
- Consistent weekday schedule (no weekends)
- Supportive, team-oriented environment
- Opportunity to grow into higher-responsibility roles
Salary : $24 - $26
