Own the monthly payroll process, including timecards, payroll review, federal and state reporting, employee deductions, benefits, retirement contributions, child-support payments, and other payroll liabilities.
Manage tuition billing and accounts receivable.
Review and approve payables.
Oversee deposits and day-to-day cash needs.
Help build the annual budget.
Coordinate tuition assistance.
Review monthly financial results.
Work extensively in QuickBooks Online to support reporting and reconciliations.
Read and explain a Profit & Loss statement, Balance Sheet, and budget-to-actual report.
Translate financial data into useful information for school leadership, the Finance Committee, and the Board.
Investigate account balances and identify discrepancies by determining what is happening and why.

Required Skills & Experience

Advanced proficiency with QuickBooks Online.
Hands-on payroll processing experience, not limited to submitting timecards to others.
Understanding of federal and state payroll filings and deadlines.
Knowledge of how benefits, deductions, garnishments, and child-support withholding should flow through payroll and the general ledger.
Comfort with debits, credits, payroll liabilities, and Balance Sheet accounts.
Ability to read financial statements and recognize when information does not look right.
Strong proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets.
Organization and follow-through to prevent missed deadlines.
Comfort communicating professionally to request missing receipts, documentation, or payments.
