We’re Hiring: Rockstar Bookkeeper – Client Accounting Services (CPA Firm)

Firm: Senter CPA, P.C.

Location: Clarkston, MI – In-Office Position

Hours: Monday – Friday 8:00 am – 5:00 pm

Position: Full-Time Bookkeeper / Accounting Tech Extraordinaire

Salary: $50,000 – $65,000 (based on experience)

This Isn’t Your Typical Accounting Firm

At Senter CPA, we don’t just keep the books—we keep small businesses moving. We’re a tight-knit team that’s proudly powered by coffee, cloud tech, and a whole lot of care for the clients we serve.

We’ve been supporting entrepreneurs, family-run businesses, and community builders for years. But we don’t live in spreadsheets from 1997. We’re the kind of firm that automates what can be automated, embraces fresh tools, and dares to rethink what accounting support should feel like.

What You’ll Be Doing

We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just “do bookkeeping”—we want someone who owns it:

· Managing multiple client books with confidence and care

· Handling reconciliations, AR/AP, journal entries, and clean-up work like a pro

· Leveraging tools like QuickBooks Online, Tax Dome, Gusto, Bill.com, Xero, and more

· Communicating with clients like a real human (not a robot)

· Thinking one step ahead to flag issues before they become problems

· Helping us level-up our processes with your ideas and tech savvy

· Processing payroll

This Role Is For You If You’re:

· Confident, curious, and tech-forward — you don’t wait to be told, you figure things out

· Organized and reliable — you know when something’s off in the numbers (and love solving it)

· Energized by fast-paced work — you thrive juggling a few moving pieces at once

· Someone who “gets” small business clients — and loves helping them grow

· Comfortable in cloud-based workflows — and excited to try something new if it makes things better

What You’ll Need

· 2–5 years of bookkeeping experience (public firm or multi-client work preferred)

· Proficiency in QuickBooks Online, Excel/Google Sheets, and cloud accounting tools

· Strong written and verbal communication skills

· The ability to work independently and collaboratively

· Bonus: experience with payroll systems, client onboarding, or catch-up/clean-up work

Why You’ll Love Working Here

· Close-knit, no-drama team who genuinely support each other

· Room to grow your role and shape how we do things

· A culture that values people first—team, clients, and community

· Embrace of technology and flexibility

· Competitive pay, benefits, and the chance to make a real impact

Confessions of a Bookkeeper

Let’s clear something up right away: bookkeeping is not just typing numbers into a spreadsheet while drinking coffee and judging people’s expense decisions.

Well, it’s partly that. But there’s so much more to it.
