11 days ago6 proposalsRemoteAI Bookkeeping Agent Developer (n8n, Xero, QuickBooks, OpenAI)
I run a UK accountancy practice and am looking to build an AI-powered bookkeeping workflow using n8n. The objective is not to replace bookkeepers, but to automate the majority of transaction coding while escalating uncertain items for review. The system should work with both Xero and QuickBooks and follow a client-specific "bookkeeping blueprint" which contains coding rules, VAT treatment, known suppliers and account mappings. The ideal outcome is a workflow that can automatically process a large proportion of bookkeeping transactions, ask questions when required, learn from responses and then complete the bookkeeping process. Preferred stack: n8n OpenAI and/or Claude Xero API QuickBooks API Microsoft 365 / Teams integration I am open to suggestions if there is a better architecture. Required Workflow 1. Transaction Retrieval Retrieve transactions from: Xero QuickBooks Potentially: Bank feeds Purchase invoices Sales invoices Receipts 2. Bookkeeping Blueprint The system should use a client-specific blueprint which we will provide for each client containing information such as: Chart of accounts VAT rules Known suppliers Director expense rules Payroll rules Account mappings Typical coding decisions Escalation rules 3. Transaction Classification The agent should: Categorise transactions Suggest nominal codes Suggest VAT treatment Provide a confidence score Record reasoning 4. Human Review Process When confidence is below a defined threshold: The system should generate a question and send it to a team member via: Microsoft Teams Email Other suitable option Example: "Payment of £127.50 to Amazon could relate to software, office supplies or equipment. Please confirm." 5. Wait for Response The workflow must pause and wait for a response. Once a response is received, the workflow should continue automatically. 6. Post Transactions After confirmation: Post transaction Update bookkeeping records Maintain audit trail 7. Learning Capability The system should store previous decisions so future coding improves. Examples: Supplier → account code Supplier → VAT treatment Common bookkeeping decisions User corrections I would like advice on the best approach for this. 8. Review & Exception Reporting Generate reports identifying: Uncoded transactions Duplicate transactions VAT anomalies Suspicious postings Items requiring review Important Requirements Audit trail Human-in-the-loop review Confidence scoring Scalable across multiple clients Secure handling of accounting data UK bookkeeping and VAT awareness Developer Requirements Please apply only if you have experience with: n8n AI agents or workflow automation Xero API QuickBooks API Accounting or bookkeeping workflows Bonus if you have: Worked with accountancy firms Built finance automation systems Experience with RAG/vector databases Experience with Microsoft 365 integrations Proposal Requirements Please include: Relevant examples of similar projects.

Senior Property Manager & Lettings HMO Specialist REMOTE
Senior Property Manager & Lettings Specialist (HMO & Residential) – Performance & Bonus Driven Hourly Rate: £15 / hour (part time - hours vary based on portfolio demand) FULLY REMOTE Bonus: Performance bonuses paid for every room successfully let. Location: Remote / Flexible (Must have UK property experience) About the Role We are seeking an exceptional, fully experienced Senior Property Manager to take complete operational ownership of a residential and HMO portfolio. This is a high-conviction role for a seasoned professional who thrives on momentum, maintains zero tolerance for void periods, and delivers rigorous operational standards. You will work closely (at the start) alongside a hands-on landlord to maintain 100% occupancy across all properties until trust is established. Our expectations could be considered very high, however for a proactive, highly responsive property professional who moves fast and communicates transparently, this role offers great autonomy, long-term stability, and rewarding room-letting bonuses. Key Responsibilities Lettings, Viewings & Rapid Onboarding: Handle tenant inquiries instantly, schedule and conduct viewings (including weekends), perform credit checks, run referencing, verify ownership via Land Registry, and onboard qualified tenants at speed. Deposit Management: Protect and manage deposits accurately in strict accordance with UK legislation via MyDeposits. Sales Pack Preparation: Organise and compile comprehensive sales packs, property history, compliance files, and documentation when properties are being prepared for sale. Compliance & HMO Oversight: Ensure absolute compliance with local authority HMO rules, licensing, EICRs, Gas Safety, and fire safety regulations etc. Financial Oversight & Cost-Control: Actively seek budget-friendly maintenance and operational solutions to protect margins and save money. Non-Negotiable Standards & Working Expectations Relentless Focus on Void Periods: Maximum effort is required at all times to avoid vacant rooms. Inquiries must be dealt with immediately, and viewings must be booked without delay—including across weekends to capture tenant demand. Common Sense & Budget-Conscious: We need someone with practical common sense who focuses on cost-effective options and sensible contractor quotes without cutting regulatory corners. Daily Responsiveness & Full Transparency: This is strictly not a job for slackers. The landlord maintains real-time visibility over messaging channels and viewing schedules. The right candidate will agree, any unanswered messages or delayed viewings is unacceptable. Making the Landlord’s Life Easy: The ultimate objective of this role is total reliability. If you take true ownership, work autonomously, and keep the portfolio running seamlessly, this will be an exceptionally rewarding, long-term partnership and the landlord can step back fully. Requirements Proven Track Record: Only candidates with extensive, direct UK residential property management and HMO experience need apply. Weekend Flexibility: Full flexibility to handle weekend tenant inquiries, manage viewings, and complete onboarding. Technical & Legal Proficiency: Experienced with Land Registry checks, reference scoring, deposit protection platforms (eg MyDeposits), and property/task management platforms. We use Arthur. High Drive: Self-motivated, commercially minded, and sharp. How to Apply Please submit your proposal outlining your specific experience managing UK HMO portfolios, your familiarity with Deposits and Land Registry checks, and your availability for arranging weekend viewings and daily tenant administration. Add reference "Mango" so we can see you have read the application. Please do not apply if you are not a highly experienced property manager.
