  • Assisting with invoicing and billing activities
  • Communicating with customers or internal stakeholders regarding payments or invoices
  • Providing data entry and administrative support to the finance team
  • Assisting with ad hoc projects and month-end support as needed

Experience You Will Gain

  • Exposure to day-to-day accounting operations and internal controls
  • Practical experience with cash management and payment processing
  • Hands-on involvement in supporting accounts payable and invoicing cycles
  • Experience working with accounting systems and spreadsheets
  • Professional communication experience with internal teams and external contacts
  • Insight into how a finance team supports business operations
  • Qualifications

  • Currently enrolled in or recently completed an accounting diploma, degree, or certification program
  • Some prior experience in an accounting or finance setting (e.g., internship, co-op, or entry-level role) within Canada
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Intermediate proficiency with Excel and standard office software
  • Ability to work full-time, on-site in Surrey, BC
  • QuickBooks online and / or Desktop version
  • Why Join Us

  • Permanent, full-time role with growth potential
  • Supportive team environment with direct mentorship from a Controller
  • Broad exposure to core accounting functions early in your career
  • Opportunity to build practical, transferable accounting skills
  • This job does not support CPA path & will not meet the qualifications for the CPA program
  • If this sounds like the role for you, please apply today! Please reference job number 05150-0013358861 in all correspondence.
