Reporting to the Accounting Manager, this role is an excellent opportunity for an early-career accountant to build broad, hands-on experience while contributing directly to the accuracy and integrity of the company's financial records.

  • Support month-end close, account reconciliations, journal entries, financial reporting, and monthly financial analysis.
  • Perform customer billing, accounts receivable, collections, customer statements, credits, and unapplied cash.
  • Perform accounts payable transactions including vendor setup, invoice coding, approvals, payment processing, AP aging, and vendor reconciliations.
  • Maintain bank reconciliations, accounting schedules, and related supporting documentation.
  • Support the transition to Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365), including testing, data validation, account mapping, workflows, and reconciliation of converted data.
  • Maintain accurate accounting records across customers, vendors, projects, departments, locations, and general ledger accounts.
  • Perform purchase order tracking and resolve billing, payment, and vendor discrepancies.
  • Assist with cash management and monitoring of expected receipts and payment obligations.
  • Support annual audits, including preparation of schedules and responses to auditor requests.
  • Assist the Financial Controller with process improvements, system implementation, and other accounting projects.
Qualifications

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • 0–2 years of accounting experience; internship or co-op experience in an accounting function is a plus.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel (formulas, pivot tables, data validation) and comfort learning new systems.
  • Exposure to an ERP or accounting system (e.g., Microsoft Dynamics 365, or similar) preferred.
  • Strong attention to detail, accuracy, and organization, with the ability to manage multiple deadlines during close.
  • Clear written and verbal communication and a collaborative, team-oriented approach.
