About the Role: We are a growing self-storage company with approximately 25 locations across the Southeast. As the business continues to expand, we're looking for a reliable, experienced Assistant Bookkeeper to support our accounting operations and help ensure our financial records are accurate, organized, and up to date.

This role will work closely with our Senior Bookkeeper and support a range of accounting and administrative responsibilities across the business. We're looking for someone with strong bookkeeping fundamentals who can work independently, identify discrepancies, and take ownership of their responsibilities.

This is more than a basic data entry or accounts payable position. We're looking for a dependable bookkeeper who understands accounting fundamentals, can reconcile information across multiple systems, and has the judgment to investigate and resolve discrepancies.

The ideal candidate will be detail-oriented, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership of their work while collaborating with the Senior Bookkeeper and broader team. There is also potential for this position to expand into a full-time role.

• 
  

  Manage accounts payable, including invoice processing and payment tracking.

  Reconcile QuickBooks deposits with deposits recorded in Cubby, our self-storage revenue management system.

  
  


• 
  

  Investigate, identify, and explain discrepancies between Cubby, QuickBooks, and bank deposits.

  
  


• 
  

  Track property tax bills and flag situations where tax appeals may be necessary.

  Assist with month-end close and other closeout activities.

  Prepare and record journal entries as needed.

  
  


• 
  

  Provide general bookkeeping and accounting support across the business.

  
  


• 
  

  Assist with administrative tasks related to accounting and financial recordkeeping.

  
  


• 
  

  Communicate findings, outstanding items, and potential issues to the Senior Bookkeeper and relevant team members.

  
  

Key Requirements:

• 
  

  4-5+ years of bookkeeping or accounting experience.

  
  


• 
  

  Strong understanding of core accounting principles and bookkeeping practices.

  
  


• 
  

  Experience with accounts payable, bank reconciliations, and month-end close activities.

  
  


• 
  

  Proficiency with QuickBooks Desktop or comparable accounting software.

  
  


• 
  

  Ability to investigate discrepancies, identify the source of variances, and clearly explain findings.

  
  


• 
  

  Strong attention to detail, organization, and follow-through.

  
  


• 
  

  Ability to work independently and manage responsibilities without extensive oversight.

  
  


• 
  

  Strong written and verbal communication skills.

  
  


• 
  

  Comfortable working with financial data across multiple locations or business entities.

  
  

Preferred Qualifications:

• 
  

  Previous experience in the self-storage industry.

  Familiarity with Cubby or any similar self-storage revenue management software.
