Managing business finances isn’t easy, especially for a growing company.
If you’ve recently noticed that invoices are taking longer to go out or expense entries are stacking up because no one has time to look at them, it might be time to hire a QuickBooks expert.
QuickBooks is one of the most efficient and robust software programs used in offices today, and having a bookkeeper on your team who can help you optimize your financial workflow with it is invaluable.
Whitman Associates helps employers across Washington, D.C., Maryland and Northern Virginia find QuickBooks experts ready to take on new roles. See how we can help your business.
What Does a QuickBooks Expert Do?
Beyond helping companies with day-to-day bookkeeping tasks, QuickBooks experts are also software guides for everyone else in the office.
So when employees or management have questions regarding invoicing, expense tracking, reconciliations, reporting or account maintenance, they have someone there to assist.
Does Your Company Need Bookkeeping Support?
It may be helpful to hire a QuickBooks expert if you’re consistently seeing delays in your finance department. That could mean:
- Inconsistent data
- Late invoices
- Tax compliance issues
- Problems with setting up new employees
In some offices, administrative staff start handling entries or account updates in between unrelated tasks, leaving them less room to focus on their work.
What to Look for in a QuickBooks Professional
A deep understanding of the software inside and out is one of the most important characteristics to look for when you hire a QuickBooks expert. That means they should be certified in your version of the software (e.g., QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop).
QuickBooks has a ProAdvisor program to vet bookkeepers, making it easier to find good candidates.
Beyond small nuances, most bookkeeping is the same from business to business, with the exception of nonprofit organizations. However, great candidates will always ask questions about how a business operates, what kinds of income streams are relevant, and how many transactions it handles each month.
Lastly, find a candidate with references. Anyone who has worked in this business for more than a few years should have a professional reference willing to speak to their abilities.
