This opportunity is perfect for a student or someone looking for an opportunity to be a role where your opinion is valued and encouraged and that want something to grow into.
This is a 20 hour weekly remote opportunity for an established accounting firm that could potentially grow into a full-time salaried position. The hours are completely flexible and at your convenience and from any location. We are looking for US residents only at this time.

We are a smaller firm and that means that everyone wears all of the hats and gets to see all sides of accounting.
