Bookkeeper and Payroll Specialist

Located in Lincoln, NE

Salary: Start at $24.75/hr

Payroll & Bookkeeping Professional

We are seeking an experienced Payroll & Bookkeeping Professional to join our team. This is ideally a full-time position, but we are open to discussing alternative arrangements (¾ time or, for the right highly skilled candidate, even ½ time), particularly if the individual can step in to cover responsibilities as needed. Pay will start at $24.75 and a direct hire position.

This role requires hands-on payroll experience.
Specifically, we are looking for someone who has personally processed live payrolls from start to finish, including preparing and filing payroll tax returns. Experience limited to entering hours into systems such as ADP or similar platforms—where the service provider handles the actual payroll processing—does not meet our needs.

Key Responsibilities:

• End-to-end payroll processing for multiple clients or entities
• Preparation and filing of payroll tax returns
• Handling payroll-related questions and issues
• General bookkeeping tasks, including reconciliations and financial record maintenance

Qualifications:

• Demonstrated, hands-on payroll processing experience (required)
• Experience preparing payroll returns (required)
• Solid bookkeeping experience
• Background in a public accounting firm is a plus, but not required

The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, reliable, and comfortable managing payroll and bookkeeping responsibilities independently. We value practical experience and competence above all else and are open to structuring the role based on the candidate’s skill level and availability.
