HIRING! Bookkeeping Specialist

Payment: $33.33/hr

Time commitment: Estimated 5-10hrs per month, max of 10hrs per month 

Virtual/Remote: Position can be done remotely/virtually (but being based in the Los Angeles sex worker community is preferred and means you can see us at in-person stuff!)

Start date & length of engagement: ~June 3rd, 2026 (flexible); 1-year anticipated term, renewable contingent on mutual agreement)

SWOPLA is hiring a Bookkeeping Specialist to support our internal record-keeping, budgeting, and reporting practices. The Bookkeeping Specialist would work closely with our Payroll-Bookkeeper, Steering Committee, and team leads to help ensure we always have up-to-date and accurate organization-wide and project-based budgets and to ensure that those systems are capturing all the information that we need for tax and grant reporting-purposes. 

The Bookkeeping Specialist’s initial duties will focus on updating our organization-wide budgets and Quickbooks, but soon the focus will shift to project-specific bookkeeping and budgeting. The Bookkeeping Specialist would be expected to act as our in-house expert on Quickbooks and budget-spreadsheets, and work with a wide variety of SWOPLA leaders and projects, so good communication and people skills are as essential as being good with the numbers.

 

Requirements

  • Significant experience with Quickbooks and spreadsheet software such as Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel
  • Experience in creating, analyzing, and/or implementing a budget
  • Excellent communication skills 
  • Around 10 hours of availability per-month to dedicate to the role (although this can go up and down if the average is consistent)

Preferred qualifications: 

  • Some familiarity with SWOPLA’s organization, structure, and/or services
  • Lived experience in the sex trade 
  • Experience or familiarity with 501(c)(3) non profit tax preparation requirements
  • Relevant degrees or certifications will be considered – but are not required!
