Accountant – Accounting Services 

Amplify Advisors is a rapidly growing startup company that is inspired to amplify other growing businesses by helping them envision their complete financial picture. We are a team of Finance Leaders, Business Consultants, and Recruiters who provide CFO services.

We have finance leaders that work as contract CFO/controllers. Our business consultants are passionate about continuous improvement in project consulting for any size finance team and organization. We also assist small/medium business with other advisory work. Our recruiters assist in the placement of finance and accounting professionals in all size entities.

Given the growth of our Accounting services package, we are seeking resumes for an entrepreneurial junior accountant (also known as a bookkeeper) to join our Amplify team. This position is expected to be a minimum of 30 hours a week up to full-time. Full benefits are provided and paid to employees on a 40 hour work week arrangement.
