This is a great opportunity for a tech-savvy early-career finance professional who wants to build a career in a modern, automation-forward accounting environment. You’ll play a key role in keeping payables accurate and moving, using streamlined digital workflows rather than paper-based processes.

• Maintain organized electronic vendor files and records
• Respond to vendor and internal inquiries about invoices and payment status
• Reconcile vendor statements and help resolve outstanding items
• Support month-end close by ensuring payables are complete and accurate
• Identify opportunities to improve workflows and make better use of the technology available
• Assist the broader accounting team with ad hoc tasks as needed

What You Bring

• 1+ years of accounts payable or accounting experience (recent graduates with strong tech skills will be considered)
• A post-secondary education in accounting, finance, or business, or equivalent experience
• Strong comfort with technology, and the ability to pick up new software and digital workflows quickly
• Familiarity with cloud accounting software such as QuickBooks Online (or similar)
• A solid understanding of the AP cycle, including coding, approvals, and payment processing
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy when working with high volumes of transactions
• Good organization and time management, with the ability to manage competing priorities
• Clear communication skills and a collaborative, can-do attitude
• Curiosity and eagerness to learn and make an impact in a fast-moving environment

What’s on Offer

• A stable, well-established organization with room to grow
• A modern, tech-forward finance function that embraces automation
• Exposure to a variety of entities and a broad scope of accounting work
• A collaborative team culture with direct access to senior finance leadership
• Real opportunities for learning and career development
