Wagon master is a growing, sales-driven company looking for a confident, organized professional who enjoys both accounting and office administration. This is a hands‑on role where approximately half of your time will focus on Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, bookkeeping, bank reconciliations, and financial reporting, while the other half will support office administration, reporting, and business operations.

If you enjoy variety, working with multiple departments, and taking ownership of your work, we'd like to hear from you.

• Process full-cycle Accounts Payable (AP) and Accounts Receivable (AR)
• Maintain the general ledger, accounting records, journals, and supporting documentation
• Complete bank reconciliations
• Assist with month‑end close activities and financial reporting
• Prepare documentation for external accountants and tax reporting
• Maintain accurate financial records and ensure data integrity

• Coordinate day‑to‑day office administration
• Support the sales, operations, and finance teams with reporting and administrative requests
• Prepare reports using Microsoft Excel
• Maintain organized digital and paper filing systems
• Assist with customer service and general office coordination
• Help improve administrative processes and workflow efficiency

We are looking for someone who has:

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Business Administration, Finance or a related field is preferred or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience
• Experience in Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, bookkeeping, accounting support, or office administration

• Experience using accounting software
• Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail
• Strong numerical aptitude and analytical skills
• Professional written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to prioritize multiple responsibilities while meeting deadlines
• Confidence working with employees across multiple departments

This position is ideal for someone who:

• Enjoys balancing accounting and administrative responsibilities
• Takes initiative and enjoys improving processes
• Is confident communicating with coworkers and leadership
• Wants to build a long‑term career within a private company
• Enjoys learning new aspects of the business and taking on increasing responsibility

This position is designed for professionals who enjoy operational accounting within a business environment. Candidates whose primary career goal is pursuing CPA designation, public accounting, audit, or tax practice are unlikely to find this role aligned with their long‑term career objectives.

• Stable, growing company
• Collaborative team environment
• Variety in your day—no repetitive accounting‑only work
• Opportunity to broaden your accounting and business knowledge
• Work closely with experienced leadership
• Competitive salary
