Assistant Bookkeeper Jobs in Wisconsin (NOW HIRING)

Baraboo, Wisconsin

Are you an experienced automotive dealership bookkeeper or accounting professional who understands how dealership accounting works?

Do you know your way around deal jackets, schedules, accounts payable, receivables, reconciliations, titles, and dealership paperwork?

We may be looking for you.

We are a family-owned and operated Stellantis dealership in Baraboo, Wisconsin, and we're looking for an experienced Automotive Dealership Bookkeeper to join our accounting team.

• Helping keep dealership accounting schedules clean and current
• Communicating with other dealership departments to resolve paperwork or accounting issues

Dealertrack DMS experience is strongly preferred.

If you currently work with Dealertrack and understand dealership accounting, schedules and deal processing, that is a major advantage.

Experience with a Stellantis dealership is also a plus.

The right person will be:

• Experienced in automotive dealership bookkeeping or accounting
• Comfortable working in a dealership DMS
• Highly organized
• Detail-oriented
• Accurate with numbers and paperwork
• Dependable and trustworthy
• Comfortable handling confidential financial information
• Able to work independently
• Good at researching and resolving discrepancies
• Someone who notices when an account or schedule does not look right
• Comfortable communicating with coworkers, vendors, lenders and customers

• Automotive Bookkeeper
• Dealership Accounting Clerk
• Dealership Accounting Specialist
• Automotive Accounts Payable Clerk
• Automotive Accounts Receivable Clerk
• Deal Processor
• Title Clerk
• Automotive Accounting Assistant

We are different from the large corporate dealership groups.

We are a small, family-owned dealership, and we believe that makes a difference.

You will know the people you work with. You will have direct access to management. Your work will matter, and you will be an important part of keeping the dealership running successfully.

We value people who are loyal, hardworking, honest, accurate and willing to take responsibility for getting the job done.

If you enjoy dealership accounting and want to work somewhere your experience is appreciated, we would like to meet you.

$23.00 to $30.00 per hour, based on dealership accounting experience and qualifications.

Candidates with strong automotive dealership accounting experience, broad bookkeeping skills, and Dealertrack DMS experience may qualify toward the higher end of the range.

Benefits include:

• Competitive pay
• Paid vacation
• Paid sick time
• Paid Maternity Leave
• Health insurance
• Dental insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Company-paid Short Term Disability
