Greenfield, Indiana (east side of Indianapolis)

Bookkeeping Plus, Inc.

Are you an experienced accountant who enjoys challenging, varied work—but would also like work/life balanceflexibility, and a family-friendly environment?

Bookkeeping Plus, Inc. is a well-established, woman-owned accounting firm providing advanced accounting, financial reporting, and analysis services to nonprofits, businesses, schools, and government entities around Indiana and beyond.

We are seeking a Senior Accountant with strong general-ledger and financial-statement experience who can perform financial statement analysis, solve accounting problems, and help clients understand their finances.

We offer a professional and supportive culture where you can do challenging and diverse accounting work without sacrificing your personal life.

Over the last four decades, our company has grown from a one-woman bookkeeping service into a respected accounting firm providing controller-level accounting to a wide range of organizations nationwide.

With approximately 30 employees, we are one of the largest non-CPA accounting firms in the region.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Prepare and analyze financial statements
  • Manage general ledger activity and reconciliations
  • Perform month-end closing processes
  • Do budgeting and forecasting
  • Provide full-cycle accounting services
  • Work directly with clients to meet their accounting and financial-reporting needs
  • Perform controller-level functions appropriate to your experience

The variety of clients, industries, and assignments keeps the work interesting and provides opportunities to expand your accounting knowledge. 

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Education:

  • Bachelor’s degree in accounting or a related field

Must-Have Experience:

  • At least five years of substantial general ledger accounting experience
  • Ability to prepare and analyze financial statements
  • Ability to work independently and exercise sound professional judgment
  • Ability to manage multiple client responsibilities in an organized, professional environment
  • Nice-to-Have: nonprofit experience

We are not a CPA firm, so CPA certification is not required.  And we don’t do income taxes.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE WORKING HERE

Bookkeeping Plus, Inc. is a woman-owned company with a 39-year record of steady growth. Many of our employees have been with us for 10–15 years or longer, which reflects the team-oriented culture we’ve created here. We’re proud of our reputation as a great place to work.

  • Genuine emphasis on work/life balance
  • Family-friendly
  • Flexible work hours (e.g. daily start and end times) 
  • A comfortable, collaborative professional office
  • Interesting work with a wide variety of for-profit, nonprofit, school, and government clients
  • And yes, we even have two small office poodles. . .

 

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Salary: $75,000–$80,000, depending on experience and qualifications.

Benefits include:

  • Health insurance with Anthem
  • Dental, vision, and life insurance
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Paid Time Off and Paid Holidays
  • Comp time availability
  • Flexible, family-friendly work environment

SOUND GOOD?

Join our team at Bookkeeping Plus, where experienced accountants can do interesting and challenging work – and still have a life outside the office.
