Bookkeeper
Expected time involvement is generally between 1-4 hours per month depending on the time of year. Obviously during tax season there is very little to no activity. During the summer it takes a lot more time to accrue the various payments coming in and going out for various events, especially those like the Mini's, SEE class, etc. that span more than one month.
- Receive, review for accuracy, and record all incoming bills into Quickbooks
- Receive, review for accuracy and completeness, and record all committee/member payment requests into Quickbooks
- Print checks at least twice per month (currently around the 5th and at the board meeting), obtain the necessary signatures, and mail or deliver the checks to their recipients. Two signatures are required for checks over $1,000.
- Make any supplemental bookkeeping entries that may be necessary to record non-check expenditures, credit card deposits, etc.
- Reconcile MSEA's bank account each month.
- Prepare financial statements for the treasurer's report each month there is a board meeting using accrual accounting, making sure that each event's income and expenses are recognized in the appropriate month(s).
- Record and track A/R as necessary (rare).
- Ensure that W-9's are obtained as necessary before checks are issued for outside services/contractors.
- Send the financial statements to the treasurer for review at least one week before each board meeting.
- Maintain an appropriate inventory of check stock, envelopes, and postage (if a separate cache/roll of stamps is to be used for mailing MSEA payments, as I do).
- Prepare and deliver bank deposits for cash and checks when necessary. Keep a copy of each deposit for future reference.
