In the next five years, we expect to double our revenue, and become one of Milwaukee’s top 10 agencies.
As our part-time accounting assistant, you’ll join our administrative team and rotate with another individual to help keep our office running smoothly. In addition to learning our agency accounting software to perform data entry for accounts payable and process bank reconciliations, you’ll use your strong Microsoft Excel skills to update monthly spreadsheets and eventually take on more complex spreadsheets and accounting tasks.
