Compensation: $60,000 – $72,000 + performance-based bonus potential

JOINING OUR TEAM

Joining our team means becoming part of a company where people truly come first—both the clients we serve and the teammates we work alongside every day. With over 70 years of experience as Central Illinois’ trusted jeweler, we’ve built our reputation not only on exceptional craftsmanship, but on a culture rooted in respect, care, and connection. We are seeking a career-minded individual who is eager to grow, contribute, and build a future with us. We believe in working hard, showing up with purpose, and giving your best effort—but we also believe work should be enjoyable, energizing, and fun. We take great pride in how we care for our employees, which is reflected in the longevity and loyalty of our team. If you’re looking for a place where you’ll be valued, supported, and part of something meaningful, you’ll feel right at home here.

ROLE SUMMARY

We are seeking a detail-obsessed, process-driven Bookkeeper to own the accuracy, reconciliation, and monthly close of our accounting system.

This role is not about financial strategy or reporting—it is about ensuring the books are clean, balanced, and correct.

You will oversee a part-time assistant bookkeeper and ensure all transactions, reconciliations, and systems (POS → QuickBooks) are accurate and complete.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Daily review of accounting activity (QuickBooks + POS integration)
Bank, credit card, and loan reconciliations
Month-end close (5–7 day timeline)
Ensuring POS (Edge) balances to QuickBooks
Accounts payable processing oversight
Identifying and resolving discrepancies
Maintaining clean, audit-ready books
Managing and reviewing assistant bookkeeper work

NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR

Financial analysis or forecasting
Strategic finance decisions
Payroll processing or HR administration

SKILLS NEEDED

Strong QuickBooks experience (Desktop preferred)
Proven ability to complete full reconciliations independently
Experience closing books monthly (not just data entry)
High attention to detail (errors are not acceptable in this role)
Ability to identify and fix discrepancies without direction

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE

Retail or inventory-based business
POS system integrations (Edge or similar)
Multi-location accounting
Working with external CPA firms

SUCCESS IN THIS ROLE LOOKS LIKE

Books are reconciled monthly without issues
POS and QuickBooks consistently match
No “mystery balances” or cleanup required
Month-end close is completed on time, every time

THIS ROLE MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT FOR YOU IF

You rely heavily on accountants to fix your books
You have not owned reconciliations start-to-finish
You prefer flexible or loosely defined processes
You are not comfortable working in a role where precision, attention to detail, and personal accountability are essential to success

Pay: $28.00 - $35.00 per hour

Benefits:

401(k)
401(k) matching
Dental insurance
Disability insurance
Employee discount

Health savings account

Paid time off
