Freelance bookkeeper
Remote, flexible, good pay
I run a specialist tax advisory practice and I'm looking for a freelance bookkeeper to work with on an ongoing basis.
The role
General bookkeeping and preparation of working papers on spreadsheet up to trial balance for a portfolio of Ltd companies. Approximately 10 hours per week with scope to grow. You would be working directly with me.
You must be
A Xero expert. Confident and fast in Excel, including preparation of working papers on a spreadsheet up to TB. Responsive, you bring up the issues before they become problems, update me without being chased, and reply within 24 hours on working days as standard. If I have to follow up to find out where things stand, this isn't the right fit.
Pay
Between £18 and £25 per hour, depending on experience.
To apply
Email with the subject line: I actually read the instructions- [your full name]
In the body, include:
* A link to your CV as a PDF, named in the format Surname-Firstname-CV-2026
* Your answer to this: You pick up a new client's Xero file and it's a mess. Duplicate entries, uncoded transactions, bank rules that make no sense. How do you approach the cleanup and how do you communicate progress?
* A 60-second video walking me through how you organise your week when you have multiple clients with competing deadlines.
Applications that don't follow these instructions won't be reviewed.
