About Get Me Links
We're a high-performance SEO agency offering fully bespoke link building services. Our clients expect excellence, and we deliver it.

We're growing fast, and as we scale we're bringing our finance function in-house — building it to run cleanly, accurately, and independently, the solid foundation everything else stands on. That's where you come in.

We're looking for a certified bookkeeper to own the recording and reconciliation side of our finances — keeping our books accurate, our monthly close on time, and our numbers something leadership can trust at a glance. It's a steady, part-time role at the heart of how we keep the company's foundation solid.

What You'll Be Doing

• Day to day, you focus on the books while payments stay separate by design. You'll also be the trained backup who keeps finance running — both bookkeeping and publisher payments — when the Head of Finance is away, always operating within defined controls (payment limits, logged access, and independent review).
• Record transactions and maintain the books in QuickBooks Online
• Own the monthly close — delivered on time (target: business day 5), with reconciliations tied out
• Reconcile payments against approved invoices as an independent check on what's been paid
• Keep the chart of accounts clean and consistently categorized
• Flag discrepancies or anything worth a second look — early, not at close
• Serve as finance backup — help keep finance operations running when the Head of Finance is unavailable
• Help build a documented finance workflow so the process never lives in one person's head

Who You Are

• A certified bookkeeper who takes ownership of accuracy.
• You have the accounting fundamentals down cold and you're fluent in QuickBooks Online. You catch the thing that doesn't add up, document it clearly, and communicate it before it becomes a problem. You're comfortable with technology and open to using AI to take the manual grind out of finance work. You're trustworthy with sensitive financial information, and you work well independently in a remote, contractor-based team.

? Requirements

• Solid bookkeeping experience and a strong grasp of accounting fundamentals
• QuickBooks Online proficiency with current QBO certification (ProAdvisor or equivalent) — please include proof
• Comfortable owning a monthly close and reconciliations independently
• Detail-oriented and communicative — you surface issues early
• Trustworthy and discreet — this role involves backup access to payments, so integrity and a clean track record matter
• Reliable internet and availability for some overlap with PH business hours

Bonus Points If You…

• Are comfortable using AI to automate work — we run on Claude (Claude Code / Cowork) for automation, and we'd love someone keen to use it to streamline the close, cut manual data entry, and connect our finance tools
• Have experience automating finance or bookkeeping workflows in any form
• Know your way around PayPal reporting and reconciliation
• Have worked with a remote, contractor-based team before

What You'll Get

• USD 700/month for ~20 hrs/week, based on skills and experience
• Service Quality Incentive — a discretionary performance incentive, available after successful completion of probation
• Paid leave, available after probation, plus the GML Christmas break (Dec 24 – Jan 1)
• Remote-first, async-friendly culture — results over hours
• A role at the foundation of the company, with real ownership of how our finances run
• A sharp team and strong values — Competence, Adaptability, Trust, Collaboration, Humanity, and no fluff

How to Apply (Follow These Steps Precisely)
Please email the following to ---------- with the subject:
“Bookkeeper – I'm [Your Name] and I Keep the Books Bulletproof”
Include:

• Your resume with two professional references
• Proof of your current QuickBooks Online certification
• Your DISC profile (free test at ---------- )
• A short note on any finance-automation or AI experience you have

Our selection process
We want to see the work, not just talk about it — so every applicant goes through the same steps:

• Application review — resume, references, and QBO certification
• A short interview — your experience and how you approach a close
• A paid trial test — a small, realistic bookkeeping task (a sample reconciliation and mini close on sanitized data) so we can see how you work: accuracy, how you handle a discrepancy, and how clearly you document and communicate. The trial is the heart of the decision — same task, same bar, for everyone.

We're looking for someone rare — a bookkeeper who makes the numbers something everyone can trust. If that's you, we can't wait to meet you.
