RoyalBag Bookkeeper Job Description

About RoyalBag

We're an import-driven poly bag and packaging company in Brooklyn, selling to businesses through B2B distribution and ecommerce.

The role

You'll handle our day-to-day bookkeeping: pay the bills, collect the money, and keep the books current. Our processes are in place. We need someone who runs them reliably and speaks up when something looks off.

You'll work closely with our sales, purchasing, and logistics teams. You'll be the one who resolves customer and vendor questions and discrepancies on invoices, bills, and payments, and who flags errors and issues quickly.

This is our sole accounting role today, with room to grow as the finance team expands.

Reconciliation and month-end

•        Reconcile bank and credit card accounts monthly

What success looks like

•        Vendors paid on time, every time

•        Receivables collected and aging under control

•        Bank and credit card accounts reconciled each month

•        Clean books, ready for Controller, management and accountant review

Requirements

•        1+ years of bookkeeping experience (AP, AR, and reconciliations); 5+ years in a product-based business a strong plus
