The Big Picture

Gauvreau is looking for a remote leader who is great at solving problems and cares about high-quality work. They want someone who doesn't just "do the math" but also helps lead the team and builds strong relationships with clients.

The Core Values (How They Work)

The firm focuses on four main ideas:

  • All In: Be passionate and do your best work.

  • Own It: Take responsibility and find solutions.

  • Choose Opportunity: Be open to new ideas and innovation.

  • Better Together: Work as a team to get the best results.

  • Organization: Work with the Workflow Manager to make sure all deadlines are met.

What You Need to Have (Requirements)

  • Experience: 2 to 5 years of experience specifically working with law firms or legal environments.

  • Software Skills: You must be comfortable with QuickBooks Online (QBO), Outlook, and Karbon. Knowing Clio (legal software) is a huge plus.

  • Expertise: You must be confident in Trust Accounting and able to work without someone watching over your shoulder.

  • Soft Skills: Great communication skills and a "solutions-first" attitude.
