JOB DESCRIPTION

The Bookkeeper supports the financial operations of Lars Remodeling & Design and Artisan West through accurate, timely, and well-documented transaction processing.

The Bookkeeper is responsible for vendor and trade partner transactions, accounts payable and receivable support, reconciliations, project and retail accounting support, financial recordkeeping, and other assigned accounting activities.

The Bookkeeper works closely with the Accounting Manager, Controller, project managers, estimating/purchasing, sales and showroom personnel, trade partners, vendors, and other departments to maintain accurate financial information and support healthy cash flow and reliable financial reporting.

The Bookkeeper is expected to do more than enter data: the role requires curiosity, attention to detail, identification of discrepancies, appropriate follow-up, and an understanding of how transactions affect jobs, margins, cash flow, and company performance.

• Ownership and follow-through.
• Accuracy and discipline.
• Urgency and responsiveness.
• Curiosity and problem solving.
• Communication and collaboration.
• Adaptability across two related businesses.
• Confidentiality and sound judgment.
• Continuous-improvement mindset and team orientation.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or GED required; college coursework or an associate's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or related discipline preferred.
• Bookkeeping or accounting experience required.
• Construction, remodeling, retail, appliance, showroom, product, or project-based accounting experience preferred.
• AP, AR, and reconciliation experience strongly preferred; multi-entity experience beneficial.

Role Philosophy

The Bookkeeper's role is not simply Receive -> Enter -> File. The role should be Verify -> Process -> Reconcile -> Investigate -> Communicate -> Improve. Accurate transaction processing creates the foundation upon which the Accounting Manager, Controller, Consulting CFO, and ownership depend.
