About the position

Impact Christian Schools is dedicated to developing new schools within the community while sustaining our Legacy Schools and providing specific services to affiliate schools. We help each school in its pursuit of excellence in education by equipping their teams with quality professional development courses that no one school could manage on their own, providing fiscal management and leadership tools for principals, alleviating and/or enhancing the administrative arm for each school; and inviting new thought discussions to assure each school stays current with prevailing trends in education models. ICS strives to take “the business” out of running a school. Our principals and faculty need and want to spend more of their time focused on the needs and development of each student. ICS aims to centralize all fiscal management, HR services, Professional Development, and other administrative duties. The full-charge bookkeeper is responsible for managing the financial records of our organization and the schools we manage. This includes accounts payable and receivable, payroll, and bank reconciliations. This individual also creates financial reports, ensures that we maintain accurate financial records, ensures compliance with accounting principles and regulations, and manages all annual audit processes for ICS and the schools we manage. This mid-level position requires strong attention to detail and excellent organizational skills. The work performed by the Accounting Coordinator/Bookkeeper is essential to the organization's mission to develop and support schools that provide a comprehensive and Biblically integrated educational program. “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Colossians 3:17
