HVAC Office Manager & Senior Bookkeeper.
Location: Spokane, WA (Building our new office in the Spokane Valley).
Salary: $75,000–$125,000 DOE + Bonuses & Incentives.

ABOUT US:
At Cline’s, we don’t just install HVAC systems—we set the standard for quality, expertise, and customer satisfaction. As Spokane's most distinguished HVAC company, we have been serving homeowners, businesses, and contractors since 1988 with a commitment to excellence that goes beyond just getting the job done. We believe in building lasting relationships, not just with our customers, but with our employees and industry partners. Our team is made up of high performers who take pride in their craft, support each other, and never settle for average. We invest in ongoing training, the best tools and technology, and a work culture that values accountability, growth, and teamwork. At Cline’s, we offer competitive wages, career advancement opportunities, and a company culture that feels like family. Whether it’s a company BBQ, team outings, or simply celebrating wins together, we believe in creating an environment where people love to work. If you’re looking for a company that values excellence, integrity, and the pursuit of being the best, Cline’s AC is the place for you.

JOB SUMMARY:
As our HVAC Office Manager & Senior Bookkeeper, you’ll be the heartbeat of Cline’s finance function. You’ll oversee every dollar coming in and going out—service invoices, account receivables, payroll—and turn data into clear insights that guide our next big move. Working side by side with the owners, you’ll refine cash‑flow forecasts, flag opportunities or risks before they surface, and build the scalable systems that powered our growth from $1 million to $3 million in just 12 months and will drive us toward tripling again.

This position is at the hub of our business.

If you thrive on ownership, embrace big targets and are passionate about building processes, this is your chance to shape a community‑focused, veteran‑owned company that refuses to settle for “just okay\".
