Bookkeeper – Payments, Merchant Services & Fintech

Help Build the Financial Backbone of a High-Growth Payments Organization

We are seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented Bookkeeper who thrives in fast-paced, transaction-intensive environments and understands the unique complexities of the payments industry.

This is far more than a traditional bookkeeping role. You will play a critical part in managing the financial operations of a rapidly growing payments and fintech business, supporting everything from financial reporting and payroll to residuals processing and revenue operations.

The ideal candidate brings a strong foundation in accounting and financial operations, coupled with experience supporting high-volume transaction environments where accuracy, accountability, and process discipline are essential.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

In the payments industry, precision matters. Financial data drives every aspect of the business—from merchant billing and revenue recognition to agent compensation and cash flow management.

As a key member of the operations team, you will help create scalable financial processes, improve operational efficiency, and provide the visibility needed to support continued growth.

This role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact while working alongside experienced leaders in payments, merchant services, and financial technology.
