DemandPulse is a consulting firm that acts as one partner for the systems and operations law firms run on. We move firms off legacy practice-management and accounting systems onto modern SaaS platforms — and increasingly, we stay on afterward to run their books. That creates two lines of work, and we need one person who can do both: 1. Migration and cutover accounting. When a firm migrates, someone has to prove the numbers survived the trip. Opening balances have to tie. Trust balances have to tie — per matter, not just in aggregate. Time-and-billing has to reconcile to the general ledger. When something doesn't line up, we need someone who can go find out why, not just flag it. 2. Bookkeeping as a service. Ongoing monthly close, trust accounting, reconciliations, and financial reporting for law firm clients who don't have (or don't want) an in-house finance team. The common thread: this is law firm accounting. Trust liability, cost advances on contingency matters, fee splits, matter-level ledgers, and the reporting a managing partner actually asks for. General commercial bookkeeping experience does not transfer cleanly here, and we're not going to pretend it does. What you'll do: Migration and cutover support 1) Validate opening balances and cutover data against source-system balancing reports — WIP, A/R, unapplied cash, trust, GL trial balance 2) Perform and document subledger-to-GL tie-outs (time & billing to general ledger, cost subledger to GL) before cutoff 3) Investigate and resolve variances: trace back to source, identify root cause, propose the correcting entries 4) Map and stand up chart of accounts between legacy and target systems, including multi-office segmentation where firms report by office or entity 5) Review trust/IOLTA data pre- and post-migration: per-matter balances, stale checks, unreconciled items 6) Produce clean, reviewable balancing workpapers a client and a partner PM can both sign off on Ongoing bookkeeping and trust accounting: 1) Monthly close: bank and credit card reconciliations, AP/AR, journal entries, accruals 2) Three-way trust reconciliation (bank statement ↔ trust ledger ↔ client/matter ledgers) on a defined monthly cadence, with documentation that survives a bar audit 3) Trust transaction handling: receipts, disbursements, transfers, settlement distributions, stale check remediation 4) Contingency-practice mechanics: client cost advances, cost recovery at settlement, referral and co-counsel fee splits 5) Financial reporting: income statement, balance sheet, matter- and practice-level reporting, budget vs. actual 6) 1099 preparation and vendor management 7) Flag process and control weaknesses — you'll often be the first person to look closely at a firm's books in years Platforms: You don't need every one of these, but you need real depth in several and the ability to learn a new one fast. 1) Law firm billing & accounting systems: SurePoint (Pro or legacy), Coyote Analytics, Clio Manage + Clio Accounting, PCLaw, Tabs3, Centerbase, Actionstep, Litify, ProLaw, Orion, Elite/3E 2) Accounting and trust: QuickBooks Online and Desktop, TrustBooks, LeanLaw, Xero, Sage Intacct, Bill.com, Ramp/Expensify 3) General: Excel at a genuinely advanced level (pivot tables, lookups, reconciling large exports), plus comfort in Google Workspace If you've been the person who ran the books inside one of these systems — not just exported from it — say so up front. What we're looking for, Required: 1) 5+ years of bookkeeping or accounting work for law firms specifically 2) Hands-on ownership of trust/IOLTA accounting, including three-way reconciliation and state bar trust compliance 3) Demonstrated ability to reconcile a subledger to a general ledger and resolve the variances yourself 4) Fluency in at least two law firm billing & accounting systems plus QuickBooks 5) Strong written communication — you'll document findings for clients, partners, and our project teams 6) Strong verbal communication — you can explain financial concepts and reconciliation findings to a non-technical audience (attorneys, firm administrators, managing partners) in plain English, on a live call Strongly preferred 1) You've been through a system migration or conversion on the accounting side, in any direction 2) Contingency / plaintiff-side practice experience (cost advances behave nothing like hourly WIP) 3) Controller-level judgment: you can make a call on how something should be represented in the GL and defend it 4) Experience supporting multiple firms at once, in a fractional or outsourced capacity

We run three related US companies and need one reliable bookkeeper to own the recurring accounting work across all of them. This is a long term, ongoing engagement, not a one-off cleanup project. The Businesses 1. A Florida professional services firm with four offices. This is the largest of the three and generates most of the work. 2. An early stage software company. Small, growing, limited transaction volume. No payroll, some reconciliations and one-off invoicing work. 3. A Virginia based equine boarding operation. Two employees, straightforward, low volume. Most payments and all payroll done automatically, one-off invoicing and reconciliation required. What You Would Own • Payroll: approximately 30 employees total, biweekly, across one entity. Payroll runs through ADP. You prepare, verify, and submit. You are not responsible for tax filings — our CPA handles those — but you are responsible for the numbers being right before they go out. • Invoicing: approximately 100 invoices per month, generated from job and timesheet data. Templated and software driven. • Reconciliations: monthly bank and credit card reconciliations for all three entities, plus month end close support. • AP and vendor management: entering bills, matching to POs and receipts, keeping vendor records clean, and preparing payment runs for our approval. • Monthly reporting package: a consistent month end package for each entity delivered on a fixed date. P&L, balance sheet, cash position, AR aging, and a short written note on anything that moved unexpectedly. • Occasional analysis: one-off requests like an office level P&L breakdown, a vendor spend summary, or a variance question. Not constant, but you should be comfortable when it comes up. Availability This is a dedicated role, not a shared one. We want the same person in our books every day, familiar enough with the businesses to notice when something is off. • Core hours are 9:00am to 5:00pm US Eastern, Monday through Friday. We expect you online and reachable during that window. • Response time to messages during core hours: within thirty minutes. • We do not expect nights or weekends. Days where invoices go out and payroll is run are busier days; most days are relatively slow. What We Are Looking For • 5+ years doing US small business bookkeeping. • Hands-on experience running US payroll for 25 or more employees. Tell us the platforms you have used and how many entities you handled at once. • Strong QuickBooks Online experience. ProAdvisor certification is a plus. • Comfortable with multi-state payroll, specifically the difference between state withholding and state unemployment obligations. • A quiet, dedicated workspace, a reliable computer, and a stable high-speed connection. This is non-negotiable — you will be in our financial systems daily. • Excellent written English. Most of our communication is asynchronous and in writing. What Actually Matters to Us Reliability over speed. We would rather you flag something you are unsure about than guess and move on. The last thing we want is a clean looking set of books that quietly diverged from reality three months ago. If you spot something that looks wrong, we want to hear about it. Rate and Terms Budget is up to $4,000 per month as a flat retainer for 40 hours per week, ongoing. We pay a fixed monthly amount rather than tracking hours because we are buying a dedicated, reliable person rather than a timesheet. How to Apply Answer the screening questions below. Please do not send a generic proposal — we will not read it. Applications from agencies bidding on behalf of an unnamed pool of staff will not be considered. We are hiring one person, and we want to know who that person is.
