At Avail CPA, we believe great work happens through collaboration. With over 90 years of experience and a growing team of 160+ professionals across Alberta and British Columbia, we help our clients and communities thrive through expert advice, genuine care, and innovative solutions.
We're looking for an Accounting Technician to join our Taber team. You'll look after the books for a portfolio of small and mid-sized business clients: keeping their records accurate, their payroll on time and their filings in order. If you enjoy clean reconciliations, solving problems and working directly with clients, you'll fit right in.
What You'll Do
- Do full-cycle bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online for a portfolio of clients, including journal entries and month-end adjustments.
- Help clients set up and use online accounting and receipt-capture software
- Reconcile bank, credit card and general ledger accounts, including A/R, A/P and GST.
- Find, investigate and resolve discrepancies and missing information.
- Process payroll and prepare government remittances.
- Prepare and file GST/HST returns, WCB reports and year-end T4s and T5s.
- Respond to CRA requests and reviews on behalf of clients.
- A diploma in accounting, business administration or a related field, or equivalent experience
- 2+ years of bookkeeping or accounting technician experience
- A strong understanding of general ledgers, reconciliations and trial balances
- Payroll experience, including remittances and year-end slips
- Proficiency in QuickBooks Online and Microsoft Excel
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage several client deadlines at once
- Clear, professional communication with clients and coworkers
- Discretion with confidential financial and personal information
- Public accounting experience
- Experience with Dext and Double (or similar receipt-capture and practice management tools)
- A competitive salary and a clear path to grow your career
- Health benefits including medical, dental and vision
- Summer hours: four-day work weeks with Fridays off
- A collaborative, supportive team that values your work
