US Accountant | Latin America

Latin America (100% Remote) · Full-Time Independent Contractor · $1,200–$3,000 USD/month ·

Imagine owning a clean, predictable close — every month. Your checklists sharp, your reconciliations airtight, your reports telling a story leaders can act on. That’s this role.

01 ABOUT THE ROLE

You’ll support fast-growing U.S. companies and CPA firms as a Latin America-based US Accountant — driving both accuracy and clarity. Full-time IC with exclusivity. No other engagements after hire.

You see accounting as a system: inputs tidy, flows efficient, outputs decision-ready. You’ll own the close, stitch together AP/AR, payroll, and reconciliations, then ship reporting that blends variance insight with plain-English commentary. Along the way you’ll standardize checklists, codify playbooks, and turn “oops” into automation.

If you like turning chaos into order and insights into action — welcome.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

You’ve closed books for U.S. entities and can hit the ground running with minimal supervision
You balance precision with practicality — you know when to dive deep and when to move fast
You enjoy creating order (SOPs, templates, checklists) and love clean ledgers and tidy reconciliations
You’re tech-curious and look for ways to automate routine work and reduce errors
You build trust with clients through consistent delivery, transparency, and simple explanations

02 WHAT YOU’LL OWN

Financial Reporting

Your reports tell a story leaders can act on.

Prepare timely balance sheets, P&Ls, and cash-flow statements with variance analysis and plain-English insights
Build budgets, rolling forecasts, and cash-flow projections; monitor burn and runway for SMB clients
Join standing client calls, translate financials into plain English, and proactively flag risks and opportunities

Books & Reconciliations

Precision is your baseline, not your ceiling.

Manage the books end-to-end: AP/AR, month-end close, journal entries, accruals, and the general ledger
Reconcile bank, credit card, merchant, and loan accounts; investigate and clear discrepancies
Run payroll accurately: calculate wages, deductions, and withholdings; coordinate approvals; ensure on-time processing
Maintain organized, audit-ready files and strong documentation across periods and entities

Process & Systems

Build the playbooks. Be the one who turns chaos into clarity.

Standardize checklists, close calendars, and SOPs; suggest tech automations (rules, workflows, integrations)
Maintain data quality and controls — every file clean, every period documented, every record audit-ready

03 WHAT YOU’LL BRING

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related discipline
3+ years of U.S. accounting/bookkeeping experience (public practice or industry)
QuickBooks Online proficiency — required, with clean documented workflows
Strong English communication — written, spoken, and client-facing; service-oriented mindset
Experienced CPA or non-CPA — both are welcome here
Ownership mentality: organized, deadline-driven, managing multiple clients without sacrificing accuracy
Comfortable working U.S. business hours

Preferred (nice to have):

Xero, Bill.com (or similar AP/AR automation)
G-Suite/Excel (pivot tables, lookups), and basic reporting/BI tools

03 HOW WE WORK

Quality: Close checklists, review notes, and documentation are part of every engagement

Security: Best practices for data privacy, MFA, and least-privilege access — always

Collaboration: Slack/Zoom standups, shared task boards, and predictable review cycles
