  • Experience preparing financial statements for nonprofits or small organizations

  • Knowledge of Excel or accounting software (e.g., QuickBooks, Wave, or similar tools)

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to organize financial data

  • Ability to explain financial information in simple language (a plus!)

Time Commitment:
