About CoverPanda Services
CoverPanda Services is a fast-growing bookkeeping, accounting, and tax services firm built specifically for franchise businesses. We partner with franchisors as their preferred accounting vendor, giving their franchisees access to reliable, high-quality financial services from a team that understands the franchise model inside and out.
Our founding partners own and operate multiple Crumbl locations generating over $12M in annual revenue, so we know what franchise operators need because we are franchise operators. We currently serve 100+ client units and are growing fast, with new franchisor partnerships fueling our pipeline every quarter.
The Role
We are hiring a Staff or Senior Accountant (level depends on your experience) to join our services team. You will handle day-to-day bookkeeping, month-end close, and client reporting for a portfolio of franchise clients.

Why CoverPanda?
