Accountant 

Independent Contractor / Mostly Remote

Are you a tech-savvy accounting professional looking to make a tangible impact right here in New Orleans? The New Orleans Healing Center is seeking a skilled and experienced Accountant to join our team as an independent contractor.

The Healing Center is a hub for healing (mind, body, spirit), housing local businesses and offering vital community programs like a free pantry, pet food assistance, and a study library. We also host engaging events, all dedicated to healing, uplifting, and supporting our community.

You’ll play a crucial role in our financial operations, managing payroll, bill paying, financial reporting, and preparing for audits. We’re also excited for your expertise in helping us build a strategic budget that allows for future growth and projects.

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has proven experience in bookkeeping and financial management, ideally within a nonprofit setting.
  • Is proficient with modern accounting software (experience with QuickBooks is a plus for a smooth transition).
  • Is passionate about streamlining financial processes, embraces electronic solutions, and can help us bring our accounting procedures into the current age (less paper, more efficiency!).
  • Is highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to work independently.
  • Is based in the New Orleans area and can attend quarterly in-person meetings.
  • Understands the independent contractor model and has other clients or income sources, as this is not a full-time position.

While this is a contract role, you’ll be a valued and integral member of our team, not just someone “doing the numbers.” We deeply value your expertise, insights, and dedication to our mission, and your input will be crucial as we grow. The reward of contributing to a truly impactful organization is immense. If you’re ready to use your financial skills to uplift our community, we’d love to hear from you!

Compensation: We are open to discussing competitive monthly rates based on experience and the scope of work.
