If you are an accountant who is good at the work but tired of being the most junior person in a room that never changes, this is the move.

• Office in Vaughan, ON

• Base salary $70,000 to $75,000
• Annual bonus targeted at 5%, tied to business performance. Pays above 5% in strong years

POSITION DESCRIPTION

This is a general accountant role with a clear runway. You will own a real piece of the close, not a corner of it: good journal-entry volume, month-end, fixed assets, tax remittances, FX, inter-company, and audit support. The company wants someone fast and accurate enough to carry that load and ambitious enough to keep climbing past it. Strong performers here move up to Senior Accountant fast.

• Prepare and enter month-end transactions into the general ledger via journal vouchers
• Perform balance sheet analysis and support the Accounting Manager and Controller through month-end close
• Maintain the Fixed Asset database and module, recording additions and disposals on the perpetual ledger
• Prepare and remit GST, HST, QST, and WSIB monthly
• Reconcile all bank accounts and balance sheet accounts (sundry receivable, prepaid, accrued liabilities) monthly
• Prepare and review the impact of foreign exchange on translation of cash and inter-company accounts
• Perform inter-company reconciliations and assist with invoice coding
• Upload monthly financials into the consolidation software and SharePoint
• Prepare periodic tax and insurance packages for internal and external stakeholders
• Extract and provide data for quarterly and annual internal and external audits
• Investigate departmental financials on request and support ad-hoc analytical work
• Create and maintain accounting process documentation

Qualifications:

• Roughly 3 years of general accounting experience, with hands-on full-cycle exposure
• Currently enrolled in CPA Designation
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
• Manufacturing accounting background strongly preferred: inventory, cost of goods sold, month-end journal entries, internal controls
• Open to candidates without manufacturing if they are demonstrably fast learners with solid core accounting knowledge and clear aptitude to pick up manufacturing concepts quickly
• Strong working knowledge of GAAP/IFRS and full-cycle accounting
• Solid bank and balance sheet reconciliation skills, accurate and timely
• ERP experience (IFS, SAP, Oracle, or similar) and strong Excel
• Speed paired with accuracy: comfortable with high journal-entry volume and month-end deadlines, including managed overtime at peak
• Understanding of GST/HST/QST and regulatory filings is an asset
• Genuinely ambitious: wants the path to Senior Accountant and is willing to earn it on demanding work
• Strong attention to detail, investigative problem-solving, and the organization to manage competing month-end and audit deadlines

Non-obvious target profile: a strong staff or intermediate accountant currently at a manufacturer, distributor, or other inventory-heavy business who is being under-stretched and wants more volume, more responsibility, and a clear promotion track.

Why is This a Great Opportunity:

• A real path to Senior Accountant. This is a role you grow out of, and the company has said so plainly; strong performers get promoted, not parked.
• You learn from the people above you. You report into an Accounting Manager and work directly with a Controller, with daily access to senior finance judgment.
• One day in the office. Just one in-office day a week, typically Tuesday, while most comparable employers now demand three or more.
• You own real, full-cycle work. Month-end close, fixed assets, tax remittances, FX, intercompany, audit support. The exposure here compounds into a career, fast.
• Manufacturing depth that travels. You build inventory, COGS, and cost-accounting expertise that makes you more valuable everywhere you go next.
• Stable footing under an ambitious role. Profitable business, larger parent, growing rather than cutting, so the climb is real and the ground is solid.
