We are located in WEST Houston and have an opening for a very experienced DESKTOP Quickbooks bookkeeper. Please do not apply if you do not have recent in-depth experience with Desktop Quickbooks in particular (vs the online version) - we are using QB through a separate/remote host now, so it is still "desktop" version, but we host it so that we can work without the specific computer that we have QB on.
The right candidate will have excellent communication skills and strong self-initiative. Requirements include prior knowledge and experience specifically with Quickbooks, and also experience with a growing business, reconciling, and all regular bookkeeping tasks. This includes small business accounting for LP/LLC partnerships, which is not required, but helpful in working with our accountants. Applicant must be familiar with high school administration and/or understand high school terminology and typical activities.
We need someone part-time, on a weekly 1099 basis. This person must have in-depth knowledge of Desktop Quickbooks (i.e. vs online), to come in once per week, being highly productive while here. Average hours are about four hours per week, and on occasion 5 - 10 hours per week, and may grow over time. Must be able to reconcile with banks online and use all facets of Quickbooks.
The structure in QB must remain organized and tidy, and improved upon as things change. This person will work with our accounting firm. Job responsibilities are straight-forward, such as entering the checks, online payments, deposits etc. into Quickbooks, reconciling with the banks, invoicing and receiving random and monthly payments, Summer School, programs, many special events etc. This candidate needs to communicate exceptionally well, work with our banks and customers (parents), and be completely dependable.
Remember to consider your drive time if you do not live on the west end of town (see map on website). We prefer that you live in or near 77079.
Memorial Private High School, established in 2004 and accredited by Cognia/AdvancED/SACS, is a private faith-based middle through high school in west Houston, Memorial area. MPHS is a warm and friendly place to work. The main differentiator of the school is that MPS is an excellent college prep school, yet we keep the school small - there are under 65 students max in the whole school. Growth plans are underway to open more small schools across the country. In addition to logging tuition and related items, MPS is very active and has a lot of events to keep track of and a very large, active Summer School program as well.
Please email your resume if you have many years of experience using Quickbooks Desktop, and if your communication skills are very strong. We would love to hear from you!
