Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian and US companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

We’re looking for an experienced Bookkeeper to manage day-to-day accounts payable and receivable, invoicing, and reconciliation for a growing security and personal protection company with multiple brands.
This is an important role within the business, with responsibility for ensuring billing activity is accurately captured, invoices are deployed on time, and outstanding payments are properly tracked. The ideal candidate is highly organised, detail-oriented, and confident working independently without needing constant supervision or hand-holding.

- Track outstanding invoices and follow up on aged receivables as required.
- Perform regular bank and account reconciliations, identifying and resolving discrepancies.
- Review billing information across multiple brands and ensure transactions are correctly recorded.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date bookkeeping records.
- Identify invoicing, reconciliation, or data discrepancies and proactively resolve them.
- Work with relevant team members to clarify billing information where required.
- Help maintain consistent and reliable finance processes as the business continues to grow.
- Provide visibility to the CEO on outstanding invoices, discrepancies, and other relevant bookkeeping matters
Requirements
Required Skills and Qualifications:
- Proven experience as a Bookkeeper, ideally with hands-on AP, AR, invoicing, and reconciliation experience (at least 3 years)
- Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy.
- Experience managing invoicing and accounts receivable/aging.
- Comfortable reviewing operational or project-management data and translating it into accurate billing.
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to identify errors before they become issues.
- Highly organised and able to manage multiple priorities independently.
- Self-directed and proactive — able to take ownership of responsibilities without needing constant guidance.
- Strong communication skills and confidence in raising discrepancies or asking the right questions.
- Comfortable working across different software platforms and learning new systems quickly.
- Experience working with remote teams is an advantage.
