Job Description

Bookkeeper (Growth Track)

Build the financial engine. Grow into the seat. Lead with clarity.

About Ark Financial

Ark Financial is dedicated to transforming lives through financial education and holistic wealth management. Rooted in Christian values, we specialize in bringing peace of mind to entrepreneurs by balancing business and personal needs.

Our vision is simple but bold :  "One day, everyone will have a family office."

We’re not just managing books — we’re building the financial backbone of a movement. If you’re hungry for clarity, growth, and impact, this is your invitation.

Position Overview

As an Accounting Bookkeeper, you will play a pivotal role in maintaining the financial health of our growing company. This role requires hands-on ownership of day-to-day accounting, bookkeeping (cash and accrual basis), and payroll operations. It offers a unique growth path for someone eager to help architect a financial department from the inside out.

You’ll start with the numbers — but you won’t stay there. We’re looking for someone who is energized by structure and the opportunity for professional growth. You should be wired for stewardship, crave clarity, and bring a strong internal drive to own outcomes, not just tasks.

This is an ideal seat for a hard-charger — someone who wants to be part of building something long-term and transformational.

Key Responsibilities

Bookkeeping & Financial Management

  • Maintain accurate, timely financial records in QuickBooks (AP / AR, GL, reconciliations) for multiple business entities
  • Deliver month-end close processes with discipline and precision
  • Prepare management-level financial reports and statements
  • Monitor cash flow and help optimize financial processes
  • Coordinate with outside CPAs and tax professionals as needed

Payroll & Compliance

  • Accurately process payroll and maintain employee records
  • Administer HRA / 401(k) benefits in alignment with legal and company policies
  • Ensure compliance with federal and state labor laws, tax filings, and reporting
  • Maintain confidentiality with extreme diligence

    • Systems & Process Development

  • Identify and improve internal financial workflows and controls
  • Build scalable systems for bookkeeping, reporting, and financial hygiene
  • Partner with leadership to prepare for future audits, growth phases, and team expansion

    • Cross-Team Support & Future-Focused Contribution

  • Participate in budgeting, forecasting, and strategic planning alongside senior leadership
  • Provide financial insight for decision-making across the business
  • Actively shape and build the future finance function as Ark grows
  • Mentor or onboard future finance hires as the team scales

    • Qualifications

  • 2–5 years experience in bookkeeping or accounting (multi-entity preferred)
  • Fluency in QuickBooks Online and Excel; familiarity with modern accounting tools a plus
  • Detail-oriented, self-motivated, and proactive — you double-check your own work
  • Able to juggle multiple responsibilities without letting things slip
  • Experience preparing or reviewing financial statements
  • Growth-minded — you want to be in the room where it happens
  • High integrity, trustworthiness, and a strong stewardship posture

    • Compensation & Work Structure

  • Salary : $50–65K, depending on experience and expertise
  • Schedule : Full-time, in-office (M–F, 8 : 00 am – 5 : 00 pm).
  • Life happens — we’re flexible where needed for important personal matters.
  • Location : Austin, TX

    • Why This Role Is Different

    This isn’t just a bookkeeping job. It’s the first step toward a high-level future for someone ready to grow. You won’t be micromanaged — but you will be coached, developed, and expected to take ownership.

    You’ll be building systems, not just following them. You’ll be learning to lead, not just execute. And you’ll be given the opportunity to earn your way into leadership — if that’s what you’re made for.

    What’s Next?

    We move fast and hire with intention. If you’re ready to build something meaningful, we’d love to hear from you.

    Together, let’s build the kind of financial team others point to as the standard.

    Not just competent — convictional.

    Not just numbers — vision.

    Not just support — stewardship.
