About the Company
This is a stable, owner-operated business that has been serving industrial and packaging markets for over 75 years. The culture is built on reliability, trust, and doing things the right way.

  • BS/BA degree preferred or an equivalent amount of bookkeeping, accounting, or administrative experience is required
  • Familiarity with ADP payroll processing is a plus; willingness to learn is required
  • QuickBooks experience preferred; training available for the right candidate
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Reliable, punctual, and committed to showing up consistently
  • Comfortable in a small office environment where everyone contributes
  • Long-term minded. The previous bookkeeper was with the company for 18 years and that kind of tenure is what this company values
Perks and Benefits
  • $20.00 to $25.00 per hour based on education and experience
  • Incredible benefits package including full individual health coverage for just $30 per month
  • Pension plan
  • Consistent Monday through Friday schedule with minimal overtime
  • Casual dress code
  • Stable, owner-operated company with a long history and no plans to slow down
