Senior Accountant & Accounting Advisory Specialist

Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship.

One 8 Solutions is a premier bookkeeping and accounting advisory firm serving businesses across Professional Services, Trades, Manufacturing and Distribution, and emerging industries. We partner with entrepreneurs and leaders to deliver financial insight that helps their businesses not just operate but grow with clarity.

We are seeking a Senior Accountant & Accounting Advisory Specialist who sees beyond the numbers and understands the story they tell. 

How You’ll Contribute

This is more than traditional accounting.

You will serve as a trusted advisor, strategist, and problem-solver, ensuring accurate financials while delivering insight that supports better business decisions. 

You will manage multiple client engagements, optimize workflows, enhance financial reporting, and collaborate across teams to create integrated, technology-forward accounting solutions. 

Preferred Skills

  • Expert level QuickBooks Online (QBO) proficiency (QBO certification Level 1 required & Level 2 strongly preferred)
  • Deep understanding of QBO workflows and third-party integrations
  • Ability to reconcile quarterly and annual payroll reports to the general ledger 
  • Experience restructuring chart of accounts and reclassifying transactions for accurate reporting 
  • Knowledge of fixed assets and depreciation
  • Knowledge of Accrual/Prepaid and amortization
  • Knowledge of GAAP and EBITDA
  • Tax knowledge is a plus
  • Strong analytical and problem solving skills with a focus on understanding the “why” behind the numbers
  • Ability to communicate financial information clearly to clients
  • Experience working with cloud-based accounting applications, third-party integrations, and paperless workflows. Some examples but not limited to: 
    • Dext
    • Track1099
    • 3rd party payment systems 
      • Relay
      • RAMP
      • QBO Payments
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft 365, especially Excel
  • Familiarity with Power BI and Copilot is a plus
  • Comfortable using Zoom, Teams, and remote collaboration tools
  • Interest in AI and emerging tools, with sound judgment on appropriate application

What Sets You Apart

  • Focused on client success
  • Organized and able to manage multiple deadlines
  • Accountable and solution-oriented and a problem solver
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working remotely while staying connected to the team
  • Collaborative and open to discussion and problem solving
  • Willing to work both in the details and at a higher level
  • Willing to mentor, train, review, and support the broader team
  • Comfortable working through ambiguity without needing step-by-step direction

Why this Role Stands Out

We are a fully remote, coast-to-coast team that uses modern accounting technology and tools to provide a practical approach to bookkeeping, accounting, and advisory services. 

You will work with a variety of businesses, client needs, and accounting systems rather than performing the same bookkeeping work every day. You will also have the opportunity to expand your technical skills, learn from experienced accounting professionals, and take on greater responsibility as you grow. 

You will have flexibility, room to grow, and the opportunity to make a direct impact on the businesses we support. 

Compensation & Benefits

  • Rate based on experience level $20-50 per hour
  • Potential path to full-time
  • Company provided computer and webcam
  • Earned PTO and sick time
  • 401(k) participation

If you’re looking for a role where you can apply both technical skills and judgment, and work closely with clients to improve how their businesses run, we’d like to connect.
