- Proficiency in QuickBooks Online and Microsoft Excel
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage several client deadlines at once
- Clear, professional communication with clients and coworkers
- Discretion with confidential financial and personal information
- Public accounting experience
- Experience with Dext and Double (or similar receipt-capture and practice management tools)
