PART-TIME ACCOUNTING ASSISTANT – PORTLAND, ME PORTLAND MEDIA GROUP
Yes, this is an accounting job. No, it’s not boring.
We’re looking for someone who loves organization, thrives in chaos, and gets an unhealthy amount of satisfaction when a spreadsheet finally balances to the penny.
You’ll help keep the business side of a fast-moving media company running – working with management, sales teams, radio and digital content creators, and a million moving parts in between.
One minute you’re handling invoices, the next minute an upcoming artist or candidate for Governor is walking by your desk.
What you’ll actually do:
· Accounts payable & receivable
· Timecard management
· Budget tracking
· Quarterly and monthly reports
· Learn industry systems and software
· Help keep the wheels from flying off
You should apply if:
· You’ve got accounting or bookkeeping experience
· You’re detail-obsessed without rigidity
· You can multitask without melting down
· You learn software fast
· Excel doesn’t scare you
· You like fast-paced environments where no two days feel the same
· You’re self-motivated and don’t need someone hovering over your shoulder
Bonus points if:
· You secretly enjoy creating spreadsheets
· You’ve fixed someone else’s error just because you couldn’t ignore it
· You can work with a team and stay focused.
This isn’t corporate beige. This is radio, digital, social media, live events, content creation, and organized chaos.
