These professionals process invoices, organize office mail, record business transactions, and manage customer accounts on any given day. Organizations in virtually any industry, including healthcare, finance, and professional services, may employ accounting clerks. Some smaller businesses may only hire one clerk, but large organizations typically employ multiple accounting clerks to meet the needs of busy accounting departments.
