Good Agriculture is hiring a Part-Time Bookkeeper! We are seeking a detail- oriented and tech-savvy bookkeeper to manage transaction categorization, reconciliations, and month-end close processes for our farm clients. Here’s what’s unique about this position: we’re actively building financial management software so we can support more farmers at affordable prices, and we’re looking for someone who’s excited to help us test out new technology, adapt their processes each month to what the tech can and cannot do, and help us identify additional opportunities to serve farmers better.

Responsibilities include:

  • Handling bank and credit card reconciliations with a focus on catching discrepancies and categorizing transactions accurately.
  • Assisting with month-end close, including reviewing financial statements and making necessary adjustments.

  • Ensuring accurate asset depreciation schedules are maintained and updated.
  • Supporting financial accuracy and problem-solving, ensuring books reflect reality.

Our ideal candidate has the following characteristics. Good Agriculture encourages you to apply even if you do not meet all of these characteristics but are excited to develop them:

  • Experience working in agriculture.
  • Proficiency in Xero and QuickBooks Online: handling bank statements, bank feed connections, reconciling bank accounts, journal entries, and reporting.
  • Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills, including general data organization, pivot tables, Index/Match, and ability to learn and combine advanced formulas.
  • Understanding of key accounting principles, including revenue, cost of goods sold (COGS), operating expenses (OPEX), assets, liabilities, and equity.
  • Ability to identify and resolve discrepancies in bank reconciliations, financial statements, and payment processing records.
  • Experience tracking loan balances, allocating principal vs. interest, and maintaining depreciation schedules.

Good Agriculture is committed to creating an environment of shared prosperity, regeneration for our people as well as the environment, trust and openness, and continuous improvement in service to regenerative farmers. We are seeking the following characteristics in all candidates:

  • Detail-oriented problem-solver who is stubborn about tracking down discrepancies and ensuring accurate financial data.
  • Passion for regenerative agriculture, sustainability, fighting climate change, resilient food systems, and/or developing rural economies.
  • Excitement to learn from feedback, wrestle with challenging problems, and grow.
  • Excellent team player abilities including open communication, enthusiasm to help when needed, and a strong sense of integrity.
  • Commitment to our values and to cultivating those values as the technical team grows.

This will be a fully-remote position based in the United States. This will be a 1099 (contractor) position with the potential to grow into a W-2 (employee) and/or full-time position. This position offers flexible hours (15-30 hours per week). We will pay $18-35 per hour depending on the level of experience of the candidate.
