Foundation Group is seeking qualified, experienced, professional bookkeepers to work with our growing client base of nonprofit organizations. While we strive to allow flexibility in work hours, we do require availability during office hours (8:30 am - 5:00 pm, Central), Monday-Friday. Therefore this role is not compatible with a candidate working another full-time job during those office hours. As a contract professional with Foundation Group, you are considered an independent contractor and will be provided a Form 1099-NEC at the end of the year for all compensation paid.

We are a team of dedicated professionals, and we seek the same in our Virtual Bookkeepers. Providing excellent client care with attention to detail is our hallmark. We pride ourselves on our responsiveness to our clients and our fellow team members.

All interested applicants will be subject to a thorough background check, E-Verify, and skills assessment.

Training is provided virtually, and all work performed for clients is done remotely. This is a work-from-home position. We are able to contract with Virtual Bookkeepers who live in any state, except for California, Montana, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. Foundation Group cannot currently contract with residents of these states.
