Bookkeeper

About the role

The Bookkeeper supports the financial operations of Lars Remodeling & Design and Artisan West through accurate, timely, and well-documented transaction processing. The role requires curiosity, attention to detail, identification of discrepancies, appropriate follow-up, and an understanding of how transactions affect jobs, margins, cash flow, and company performance. The Bookkeeper works closely with the Accounting Manager, Controller, project managers, estimating/purchasing, sales and showroom personnel, trade partners, vendors, and other departments to maintain accurate financial information and support healthy cash flow and reliable financial reporting.

The role is not simply Receive → Enter → File. It should be Verify → Process → Reconcile → Investigate → Communicate → Improve. Accurate transaction processing creates the foundation upon which the Accounting Manager, Controller, Consulting CFO, and ownership depend.
