Accountant — Own the Financial Backbone of a Fast-Growing Company

About RemoteLegalStaff

RemoteLegalStaff (RLS) is a fast-scaling, founder-led company helping U.S. law firms grow with exceptional offshore legal talent. We’re lean, global, and highly execution-focused. Behind the scenes, our growth depends on clean financials, strong controls, and someone who treats accuracy as non-negotiable.

Our culture is high-trust and fast-paced. We move quickly, expect ownership, and value people who see problems early and fix them before they turn into issues.

The Role

We’re hiring an Accountant to handle a wide range of finance-related responsibilities across the business.

This role goes beyond basic bookkeeping. You’ll own day-to-day accounting operations, ensure financial accuracy, support leadership with clear reporting, and help keep the business financially organized, compliant, and scalable as we grow.

You’ll work closely with leadership and operations, touching everything from reconciliations and reporting to AR/AP, payroll coordination, and process improvements. If numbers don’t tie out, you don’t ignore it—you dig in and resolve it.

This is a trust-heavy role. We’re looking for someone who takes responsibility seriously and cares deeply about getting things right.

What You’ll Do

• Maintain accurate, up-to-date financial records across all accounts
• Handle monthly close activities, reconciliations, and variance checks
• Manage AR, AP, invoicing, collections tracking, and vendor payments
• Support payroll processing and ensure accurate allocation of expenses
• Prepare monthly financial reports, cash flow updates, and summaries for leadership
• Review transactions for accuracy, consistency, and proper categorization
• Maintain clean books in QuickBooks (or similar accounting systems)
• Identify discrepancies, flag issues early, and resolve them proactively
• Improve accounting processes, documentation, and internal controls over time
• Support budgeting, forecasting, and ad-hoc finance requests as needed

You’ll Thrive Here If You…

• Are detail-oriented and don’t let errors slide
• Take ownership of the numbers, not just the tasks
• Enjoy bringing order and clarity to fast-moving environments
• Communicate clearly when something looks off or needs attention
• Can juggle multiple finance responsibilities without dropping details
• Are proactive, organized, and comfortable working independently
• Care about accuracy, integrity, and accountability
• Think in systems and look for ways to improve how things are done

This Isn’t for You If…

• You prefer narrow, repetitive tasks with strict step-by-step instructions
• You avoid digging into discrepancies or unclear transactions
• You struggle with deadlines, follow-through, or prioritization
• You need constant direction to stay on track
• You’re uncomfortable handling sensitive financial information
• You believe “close enough” is acceptable in accounting

Requirements

• 2+ years of accounting or bookkeeping experience
• Strong working knowledge of QuickBooks or similar accounting platforms
• Experience with reconciliations, AR/AP, and monthly close processes
• High attention to detail and strong judgment
• Clear written and verbal English communication skills
• Comfortable working remotely in a fast-paced environment
• Experience supporting growing or founder-led companies is a plus

What We Offer

• A trusted role with real responsibility and ownership
• Direct collaboration with leadership
• Fully remote work with flexibility
• Competitive compensation based on experience and impact

Benefits

• Lots of paid time off
• Health & wellness stipend
• Performance-based bonus opportunities
• Ongoing training and professional development
• And more!
