Full Description

Our Story At a young age, the founders of Nimbl learned the seemingly unexpected role that accounting plays in creating successful organizations, families, and communities. Dave Olsen and Shane Rowley both grew up in small business families, though each has his own unique story. Both of their childhoods were characterized by lessons learned while working alongside their fathers. For Dave, Shane, and the entire Nimbl team, accurate accounting enables entrepreneurs to build thriving businesses that provide opportunity and abundance for everyone. Nimbl is dedicated to providing a variety of accounting services to small to midsize businesses across the country to not only empower them to make accurate decisions, but do it in a way that impacts every facet of their life. Enter you. Nimbl has been growing at an exponential rate, and we need someone as passionate about accounting and small business as we are to join our accounting team. The Position As a Client Accounting Manager, you will be the face of the company to our clients (from the comfort of your own home or wherever you choose to work). That means we are looking for the best of the best. While accounting will be part of your daily routine, most of your time will be spent interacting with clients and overseeing bookkeepers.

Your weekly hours will be driven by training progress and client demand. During the first 1–2 months of onboarding and training, you may work up to 30–40 hours/week as needed to support ramp-up, shadowing, and learning our processes. After training, weekly hours will fluctuate based on client needs, and while many weeks may be 20+ hours, we cannot guarantee a fixed number of hours week to week. The role is part-time for at least the first year of employment, with the potential to grow into a full-time (40 hours/week) position over time for team members who want it, perform well, have availability aligned to client needs, and when client volume supports a full-time workload. We aim to communicate workload agreements as far in advance as possible to allow you to build a consistent rhythm within your agreed availability. Availability Some weekday availability is needed on most days (unless time off is arranged in advance). The amount of time each day is flexible, and we’ll coordinate scheduling within agreed availability windows to support client responsiveness and deadlines.
