Yellowstone Local on behalf of our client • Residential Plumbing HVAC • Richardson, Texas • $6-$8/hour Yellowstone Local is hiring on behalf of our client, a growing residential plumbing and HVAC company, for an experienced Full Charge Bookkeeper to run the day-to-day accounting and financial operations of the business. This isn't a clerk's seat. It's a full back-office leadership seat with a bookkeeper's title on it. The owner is hiring this seat because he wants somebody who can actually run the books, not somebody who processes transactions while the real accounting work happens at the CPA at year-end. We're looking for a highly engaged bookkeeper. Who we're looking for If you don't know what "highly engaged" means, you're probably not it. If you do, you already feel the difference between you and most of the bookkeepers you've worked alongside. A highly engaged bookkeeper takes pride in clean books the way a great tech takes pride in a clean install. She owns the close. She closes on time, every month, because the deadline is the deadline. She doesn't wait for somebody to ask; she brings the variance to the owner before he can spot it. She reads the P L like a story and can tell you what's changing and why. She's curious about the business. She wants to know why a service call costs what it costs, why one tech's margin is different than another's, and why the parts vendor is creeping. She's not just processing transactions; she's thinking. She communicates up. She flags problems early, with options, not just "here's a problem." She makes the owner's job easier by giving him a numbers picture he can actually act on. She doesn't need somebody standing over her. The work itself is the standard. If it's not right, she fixes it. If it can be better, she builds the system to make it better. If that's you, keep reading. Pay Benefits $6-$8/hour Health, dental, and vision insurance Paid time off and paid holidays 401(k) retirement plan Steady, full-time, year-round work Professional development support Supportive leadership and team environment What You'll Be Doing Manage full-cycle bookkeeping, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, and general ledger Perform monthly bank, credit card, and balance sheet reconciliations Process payroll, including technician commissions, overtime, and benefits deductions Prepare and file sales tax returns and 1099s Own month-end close on a consistent schedule with a documented checklist Prepare monthly financial statements (P L, balance sheet, cash flow) that the owner can read and act on Set up and maintain job costing for service tickets and installation projects, so the owner can see actual margin by tech, by job type, and by service line Manage AR aging, invoicing, and collections coordination with the office team Coordinate with the company's outside CPA at year-end. Hand them clean books so tax filing is fast and clean. Support workers’ compensation, general liability, and insurance audits Maintain organized financial records and documentation Flag cash flow issues, vendor pricing drift, margin compression, and other financial signals to the owner early Document processes so the back office runs as a system, not a person What We Value in This Seat Obsession with clean books. You reconcile to the penny. You don't let unexplained variances slide. You don't close the month with "we'll figure that out later" sitting on the books Ownership of the close. You own the calendar. You hit the deadline. You don't need somebody chasing you for it. Job costing instincts. You understand that in a trades business, "Did we make money on that job?" is the most important question we ask. You build the structure that lets us answer it. Proactive communication. You don't sit on bad news. You bring problems to the owner with options, early. You don't wait until it's a crisis. Process and system mindset. You document. You automate. You build the system so the next person can step in. Low ego, high ownership. When something gets missed, you own it. You don't blame the tech, the office manager, or the dispatcher. You fix it, and you build the system that prevents it next time. What We're Looking For 5+ years of full-charge bookkeeping experience Experience in a trades, construction, or service-based business preferred Strong proficiency in QuickBooks Online Experience with ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, or similar trades dispatch software a plus Solid understanding of job costing in a service or project-based environment Experience with payroll processing, sales tax filings, and 1099 preparation Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, formulas, basic reporting) High level of accuracy and attention to detail Professional written and verbal communication skills Ability to work independently and manage deadlines without supervision Trustworthy, dependable, and comfortable handling sensitive financial information Able to pass a background check This Role Is For You If: You're a full-charge bookkeeper with the chops to run a back office, not just process transactions. You've owned a month-end close before, on a calendar, with a clean P L at the end of it. You understand job costing in a trades or project-based business. You take pride in clean books and want the autonomy to run a back office the right way. This Is Not For You If: You need somebody telling you what to work on every day. You wait for problems to come find you. You're comfortable with "we'll figure that out at year-end." Job costing intimidates you. You've only ever done a piece of the cycle, and you've never owned the full close. Why Bookkeepers Stay Here Clear scope and ownership of the back office Supportive owner who values clean books and reliable reporting Steady workload and a predictable monthly close calendar Professional environment with room to grow into a controller or finance lead role Team culture built around accountability, quality, and respect Opportunity to make a real impact on a growing trades business About Yellowstone Local Yellowstone Local is a recruiting partner for skilled trades companies across the country.
