Virtual Bookkeeper - NetSuite Specialist - Freelance, Remote

About the Client

A fast-growing, US-based automotive performance and engine-build company operates a lean, on-site team alongside an expanding e-commerce parts business. They prioritize exceptional customer service, rapid fulfillment, and reliable operations as they scale. The team values accuracy, speed, and clear communication to support sales growth.

Why does this role exist?

The operations lead is spending too much time in bookkeeping and operations, which is impacting sales opportunities and confidence in the numbers. This role exists to take full ownership of financial operations in NetSuite—ensuring accurate reconciliations, timely month-end close, and management reporting—so leadership can make decisions quickly and trust the data. Ultimately, you’ll restore financial clarity and cadence while enabling the team to focus on growth.
