Job description
A well-established wholesale distributor of heavy equipment in Coquitlam is seeking a detail-oriented Accounting Clerk to join their close-knit team. This is a unique "contract-to-permanent" opportunity, allowing you to showcase your skills during a 90-day introductory period before transitioning into a long-term permanent role with the company.

This position is ideal for an accounting professional who enjoys a mix of high-volume data entry and complex, manual problem-solving.

Advantages
Stability: Join a successful family-owned business with a long history and a loyal team (filling seats due to well-earned retirements).
Clear Career Path: This role has a defined transition to permanent employment after 90 days, based on performance.
Full Benefits: Upon permanent conversion, you will receive a comprehensive extended health and dental package.
Work-Life Balance: Enjoy a consistent full time work week in a supportive, professional environment. To note, this role is *on site* in Coquitlam.
Commuter Friendly: Located in a transit-accessible area of Coquitlam with free on-site parking.

Responsibilities
Complex Invoicing: Handling 30–40 highly customized invoices per day, requiring precise matching of purchases with sales to maintain inventory integrity.
Full-Cycle AP/AR: Posting payables and receivables, managing billing cycles, and ensuring accurate data entry into the accounting system.
Inventory Coordination: Working closely with the sales and distribution teams to ensure complex wholesale orders are billed correctly.
Ad-Hoc Support: Providing administrative assistance to the senior accountant and reporting directly to the Finance Manager.

Qualifications
Experience: 1–2 years of hands-on experience in an AP/AR or General Accounting role.
Software Proficiency: Strong working knowledge of Sage 50 is highly preferred.
Intermediate Excel: Must be comfortable using VLOOKUPs and Pivot Tables to manage and reconcile data.
The "Trainable" Mindset: Because our invoicing process is manual and industry-specific, we are looking for someone who is eager to learn, asks questions, and has a high degree of "attention to detail."
Reliability: As a core member of a small team, consistent on-site attendance is essential.

Summary
If you are an accounting clerk who takes pride in accuracy and is looking for a stable, long-term home where you can grow your skills, we want to hear from you.

We are looking for a candidate who can hit the ground running as early as next week!
