We are seeking a Senior General Accountant for a full-time, office-based role in Osoyoos, reporting to the Finance and Accounting Manager.

Position Overview

The Senior General Accountant is responsible for day‑to‑day accounting, reconciliations, and month‑end support for a busy operational company. The work follows steady cycles with clear expectations and predictable hours, making it a strong fit for someone who values accuracy, consistency, and getting the job done well.

You will manage your own workload, work independently, and work within established processes while helping refine them as our systems and technology continue to evolve.
