Full Charge Bookkeeper

TruePath Solutions is an operational strategy and strategic bookkeeping firm. We work with small and mid-sized business owners who need more than clean books, they need clarity, structure, and someone who can translate financial data into operational decisions. We are hiring a Contract Full Charge Bookkeeper to work directly with our clients. Please read carefully before applying. This is a 1099 contract role, paid hourly. It is not a W-2 position. It starts as part-time with the potential to grow into full-time hours. If you are looking for a salaried, benefits-eligible W-2 position, this role is not a fit. About the Role You will serve as a Strategic Bookkeeper for a portfolio of TruePath clients. You will own the full financial function for these clients, from day-to-day full charge bookkeeping through month-end close and financial reporting. This role requires both depth and range.
