Heyo My name is Matt and I am the owner of MPNW LLC, a small and growing Bookkeeping company. Over the past year, my company has tripled in size and it's finally time to bring on Team Members to grow a little larger. This is my second time starting and growing and firm - my last Firm had 16 employees and over 500 clients - and from that experience I'm set on a keeping this new group small, comfortable, manageable, promote from within, and keep things simple. Our current and future clients are remote-only, of quality standards, and not too difficult.
My current employee, based of this exact same post, just hit full time and thus the need to meet you!
DETAILS / BEST FIT (I think)
At First, I need about 20-40 hours a month of your time at this point. I don't want to overshoot expectations. It'll be elevated as you start (maybe 80), wane a little as you get settled, and as new clients in - we'll have more work. This will turn into a full time job in about year, or it could remain part time if that's what's good for you.
I want to train you on my style of things: what to look for, answering "why a client did this," solutions ethical vs what a client wants to, payroll, basic HR, Quickbooks (Desktop/Online), other softwares, client communication. Hopefully you'll have some experience with Quickbooks, basic accounting, excel, Google Docs.
At first, you won't have direct contact with any clients - let's deal with the basics. You will also work with my other staff member, who will show you the ropes and you two are going to divvy up some client work.
Later on, we'll introduce you to clients and you will go on auto-pilot with these clients. When you have vacations or need time off, I'll have basic knowledge of your clients and I've got your back. (And vice-versa)
The more you can take on, the harder the tasks, the less hands on I am, the more I pay you.
Hours of Operations: Not concerned, whatever works for you. I'm generally a 9-5. If you have school or another job in the morning, we can do afternoons.
LOCATION: I do not have a physical office, but we should have co-working spot nearby where we can meet a few times for training by the summertime. So - this will be a 80-90% remote-only job. You'll be provided a PC Laptop, extra monitor, and other supplies that you need and you'll work from home or wherever you want.
TIMELINE: I am looking to start interviewing this month via Zoom - with a start date of late March, early April (that's flexible). I'll be having interviews at a local coffee shop.
