You're passionate about developing and empowering teams thriving on coaching, mentoring, and helping each person reach their potential
You’re comfortable in client-facing relationships and enjoy getting to know our clients’ businesses (and them as people too!)
You’ll be detail-oriented, avoiding spelling errors or other careless mistakes in your work
You’ll be an amazing communicator—making sure any soon-to-be missed deadlines are communicated about ahead of time
You’re super-comfortable working online, in cloud-based applications, and using a variety of software tools (with the appropriate training of course)
Your discretion is top-notch; our clients’ privacy and sensitive information are always protected
You’ve got a proactive attitude, and love finding new and better ways to help us get our work done well
You’re a get-it-done kind of person, and will ensure client deadlines are met and that we’re following through on our commitments
You have experience with at least one type of cloud-based accounting platform (preferably Xero, but could be QBO, Sage, Netsuite, etc)
