Ready Accounting is a growing firm serving construction and real estate clients across Washington State. We're hiring a Senior Accountant who can independently own the day-to-day workload — and who's tech-savvy enough to keep our clients' software talking to QuickBooks.
This is a hands-on role with real ownership. You'll run the books for a portfolio of contractor and real estate clients, handle Washington tax filings end to end, and be comfortable jumping on a client call when needed. As we grow, there's a clear path to help shape our processes and mentor a growing team.
What you'll do
- Handle core accounting for our clients: payroll, accounts payable, and invoicing
- File Washington State taxes: WA sales & use tax, City B&O (Business & Occupation) tax, and L&I (Labor & Industries)
- Own construction and real estate accounting: job costing, WIP (work-in-progress) schedules, and clean class/project/job tracking in QuickBooks
- Set up and troubleshoot integrations between QuickBooks Online and field software — JobTread, Buildertrend, Jobber, and similar tools
- Communicate directly with clients — answer questions, explain financials, and represent the firm professionally
- Document and improve how we work so the process can scale
What we're looking for
- 5+ years of full-cycle accounting or bookkeeping experience (payroll, AP, invoicing)
- Washington State compliance experience — WA sales & use tax, City B&O tax, and L&I filings (WA DOR and L&I systems, not just federal)
- Real estate and/or construction accounting experience — WIP, job costing, class/project tracking
- Advanced QuickBooks Online skills (QuickBooks Desktop a strong plus; ProAdvisor certification a plus)
- Genuinely tech-savvy — able to configure and troubleshoot app integrations between QBO and field software, not just use it
- Strong, client-ready communication skills
- Self-directed and organized — able to own the workload with minimal oversight
Nice to have
- Prior experience at an accounting firm or outsourced accounting team
- Familiarity with workflow automation tools (e.g., Zapier)
- Interest in growing into a process/team leadership role
Why join us
You'll have high ownership and visibility in a growing firm, work directly with business owners, and help shape how we scale. If you want more than a heads-down staff role, we'd love to hear from you.
