Job Description:

We’re on the hunt for a detail-loving, number-crunching Accounting Technician to join our growing team! If you have experience in construction, manufacturing, or equipment sales — and know your way around debits, credits, and cost tracking — we want to hear from you. This role is perfect for someone who’s not only great with numbers but also curious about how business works behind the scenes. You'll report directly to your manager and be encouraged to grow with us through ongoing development opportunities.

Job Responsibility:

  • Process and record accounts payable and receivable, ensuring timely payments and accurate coding
  • Match invoices with POs, quotes, freight costs, and shipping docs — accuracy is key!
  • Track and allocate project costs (product, freight, brokerage, credits, etc.)
  • Reconcile accounts monthly, track accruals, and assist in month-end closings
  • Manage inventory purchases and record entries in Great Plains
  • Monitor aging reports, follow up on overdue accounts, and flag potential issues
  • Apply payments (cheque, EFT, credit card) and issue invoices and statements
  • Help assess credit risk and prepare credit approval packages
  • Work with collection agencies if needed
  • Maintain customer profiles, organize digital files, and support internal reporting
  • Prepare paperwork for vendors/customers and assist with the annual audit
  • Occasionally answer calls and route inquiries across departments
  • Help with internal communication and pitch in with admin tasks as needed

Requirements:

  • 2–5 years of bookkeeping/AP/AR experience in a busy office setting
  • Strong grasp of accounting principles and the three-way match process
  • Comfortable with Excel and open to learning new software (Great Plains experience is a plus!)
  • Organized, accurate, proactive — you catch the small stuff before it becomes a big issue
  • Fluent in English and French (spoken and written)
  • Ready to pass a background check

Nice to have:

Great Plains experience

What we offer:
  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • Health, dental, and vision coverage
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Career development opportunities
