As an administrative assistant and bookkeeper, your job is to provide various clerical and accounting services for your employer. In this role, you may perform data entry, monitor company finances, track adherence to a budget, record expenses, and deposit checks in accounts. You may also help create a report whenever it is necessary for tax purposes. Many companies separate these two positions. When these roles are combined, it usually means that the company has a smaller number of transactions and clients of which to keep track. The details of this job are typically similar regardless of employer, but hours may vary based on company needs.
