Job Description
About the Role:
Reporting to a senior finance leader, you’ll support daily accounting operations across multiple entities, with a focus on billing cycles, receivables/payables, and trust/general account reconciliations. You’ll partner closely with internal teams and external stakeholders to keep workflows accurate, timely, and compliant.
What You’ll Do:
- Execute day-to-day bookkeeping and processing in a software-based environment (practice management + cloud accounting).
- Prepare pre-bills, process adjustments, finalize invoices, and distribute per client guidelines.
- Reconcile trust, general, credit card, and bank accounts; maintain accurate supporting schedules.
- Monitor and manage AP/AR; resolve discrepancies and respond to inquiries.
- Support month-end and year-end close, including working papers and audit requests.
- Maintain a rolling list of time-sensitive accounting tasks and deadlines.
- Handle online banking transactions (incl. wires) securely and efficiently.
- Contribute to continuous improvement of processes and controls.
What You Bring:
- 1–4 years of accounting experience (billing/AP/AR focus ideal); multi-entity exposure is an asset.
- Comfort with cloud accounting and practice management platforms (software-driven; not manual).
- Detail orientation, organization, and ownership over high-volume workflows.
- Clear communication with colleagues, clients, and third-party vendors.
- Diploma/degree in Accounting/Finance (or related). Experience in a legal/professional-services setting and trust accounting exposure are assets.
Why Join:
Work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment where your impact is visible, your toolkit is modern, and your growth path is defined. You’ll gain broad exposure across entities, sharpen your billing and trust accounting skills, and progress toward Senior Associate.
