WHO We Are:

Self-Help started in 1980 with a focus on economic inequality especially in communities that have faced systemic barriers in building wealth. At the core of what Self-Help does is a drive to create and protect ownership and economic opportunity. Since our founding, we’ve constantly sought to find new ways to pursue greater economic justice: from providing fair and affordable loans, to working with partners to demand that lawmakers change unjust policies.

WHAT You’ll Do:

• Perform daily reconciliation of bank accounts including clearing stale items, check/share drafts, and processing stop payments.
• Prepare and file IRA withholdings with State and Federal governments.
• Reconcile loan servicing statements to underlying accounting records.
• Assist with ensuring that monthly financial statements are prepared.
• Utilize and apply knowledge of the fundamental doctrines, theories, principles, and terminology of accountancy, including an understanding of how transactions made in other departments affect accounting records.
