Ongoing duties include handling accounts payable/receivable (including creating invoices and grant reimbursement submissions), creating monthly financial statements and all monthly reconciliations, and submitting biweekly payroll and 403(b) retirement information. The bookkeeper is also the primary liaison with Seatuck’s accounting firm on annual audit and tax returns.
