**About This Opportunity**
Numbers tell a story—and at KnowHireMatch.com, we’re looking for someone who can read between the lines. This isn’t just a bookkeeping role; it’s a chance to become the financial backbone for a range of clients in Waterloo, Iowa. You’ll step into a collaborative environment where your precision and people skills matter just as much as your software expertise. If you’re ready to turn transactions into clarity and build lasting client relationships, this is your next move.

**Your Role in the Story**
You’ll be the trusted guide for clients navigating their financial landscape. Day to day, you’ll:

- Dive into bank reconciliations—researching, matching, and making sense of every transaction so nothing slips through the cracks.
- Gather and reconcile data to craft clear, accurate financial statements that clients can rely on.
- Own the payroll process from start to finish: preparing payroll, handling tax deposits, and filing monthly, quarterly, and yearly returns.
- Wrap up each year by preparing W-2s and 1099s, ensuring a smooth close for everyone.
- Work directly with clients—answering questions, clarifying needs, and keeping the information flow seamless between their world and yours.
- Maintain organized, efficient workflows that keep projects on track and deadlines met without the last-minute scramble.

**What You Bring**
You’re not just good with numbers—you’re good with people. Here’s what we’re looking for:

- **Experience:** 2+ years in bookkeeping, payroll, and accounting—real-world know-how that goes beyond theory.
- **Education:** An Associate degree in Accounting or a related field.
- **Technical chops:** Solid grasp of general ledger accounting, reconciliations, and accounting software. QuickBooks experience is a big plus.
- **Soft skills:** You follow verbal and written instructions with ease, communicate clearly, and keep your cool when deadlines tighten.
- **Computer savvy:** You’re comfortable with spreadsheets, payroll systems, and the tools that make modern accounting hum.

**Why This Role Works**
You’ll join a team that values accuracy over speed and relationships over transactions. The work is steady, the clients are real, and your expertise will directly shape their success. Plus, you’ll be based in Waterloo—no remote ambiguity, just a solid office environment where collaboration happens face-to-face.

**Compensation & Perks**
- **Salary:** $65,000 – $75,000 per year
- A role that respects your experience and rewards your precision.
