Bookkeepers work on the financial accounting within for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. A Bookkeeper’s job is to record accounting transactions, post debits and credits into a general ledger, record revenue and expenses, and help produce financial statements and other reports for the management of the company. Daily, Bookkeepers use accounting software and spreadsheets to enter or review information from invoices, receipts, income, or bills from the previous day or specified period. A typical day for a Bookkeeper may include entering financial transactions, checking the records for accuracy in figures, and preparing bank deposits. A Bookkeeper will also spend time reconciling and checking reports for accuracy. In many organizations, a Bookkeeper provides regular reports to the leadership team and works with a tax preparer. Some Bookkeepers may also prepare invoices and handle payroll.
