Remote bookkeeper jobs in Yerevan, Armenia

A bookkeeper keeps the day-to-day books of a small US or European company: invoices, payments, bank reconciliations and reports for the owner. Here is what employers abroad expect.

What the job is

Job posts in English separate the bookkeeper from the accountant. A bookkeeper records invoices and payments, reconciles the bank and prepares simple reports. An accountant is responsible for financial statements, taxes and closing the period; in the US part of that work is done by certified local specialists (CPAs).

That is why companies hire bookkeepers and accounting assistants from abroad most often: the books can be kept remotely under the company's rules, while tax returns are prepared by a local specialist.

Local accounting experience counts, but the system is different: another chart of accounts, other rules, other software. What matters is learning QuickBooks Online or Xero quickly and showing accuracy.

Duties

  • Enter invoices, expenses and payments in the accounting software.
  • Reconcile bank and card accounts every month.
  • Send invoices to customers and follow up on payment.
  • Keep accounts payable and accounts receivable up to date.
  • Prepare monthly reports: profit and loss, cash flow.
  • Prepare documents for the accountant who handles taxes.

What you need

  • English from B2+: email and financial vocabulary.
  • Accounting experience; QuickBooks Online or Xero is a strong plus.
  • Confident Excel or Google Sheets.
  • Accuracy and discretion.

Tools

  • QuickBooks Online
  • Xero
  • Bill.com
  • Expensify
  • Gusto
  • Excel
  • Google Sheets
  • Stripe

Questions

Can I work as a bookkeeper for a US company with a local qualification?

Yes, as a bookkeeper or accounting assistant. US tax returns are usually handled by a local specialist, while you keep the day-to-day books under the company's rules.

Which should I learn first, QuickBooks or Xero?

Both appear in job posts. Look at the vacancies that interest you and start with the one they mention more often.

How is a remote bookkeeping job set up?

Like other remote roles: a contract directly with the company, usually as an independent contractor, and monthly pay in US dollars via Deel, Wise or Payoneer.
