Fractional Bookkeeper

Company Description: Altevere is a fractional female financial consulting firm. We embed experienced women finance leaders into growing organizations, covering the full finance function from CFO-level strategy down to bookkeeping, so companies get the exact level of financial leadership they need without the cost or commitment of building an in-house team from scratch. Our mission closes two gaps at once: the financial leadership gap facing small and medium-sized enterprises, and the access gap facing talented women in finance who want flexible, high-impact roles. Every engagement creates downstream impact for SMEs, their teams, their families, and their communities across Canadian markets. Altevere operates remotely and partners with clients who value flexibility without compromising on financial rigor. Role Description: You will manage accounts payable and receivable, reconcile bank and credit card statements, process payroll, and maintain accurate general ledger entries. You’ll prepare monthly financial statements and work closely with the client’s Fractional CFO to ensure the numbers flowing up are accurate and timely. Day to day, you’ll keep invoicing and expense tracking on schedule, flag discrepancies early, and maintain the financial recordkeeping that everything else at the company depends on. Qualifications • Bookkeeping certification or equivalent experience (QuickBooks, Xero, or similar platforms) • Minimum 5 years’ bookkeeping experience • Strong attention to detail and reconciliation accuracy • Comfortable working as an independent contractor in a remote capacity • Experience with SMEs preferred.
