Original job description

As an Accounting Technician, you will help oversee LawZero’s financial and accounting operations. LawZero is a non-profit organization funded through two main sources: donations from private foundations and public grants.

Reporting to the Finance Manager, you will contribute to the smooth running of day-to-day operations in Canada and internationally. You will ensure data accuracy, transaction compliance, and the thorough preparation of accounting deliverables.

A portion of your time will also be dedicated to supporting the accounting operations of Mila, the Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute.

Your contribution

Manage the accounts payable cycle: review and allocate costs on complex invoices to the appropriate general ledger accounts, projects, and tax codes; follow up with stakeholders as needed to ensure accuracy; enter invoices and prepare payments.
Manage the accounts receivable cycle: review contracts, validate information with stakeholders, determine applicable sales taxes, enter invoices, review overdue accounts, and follow up on outstanding payments.
Verify that employee expense reports comply with applicable policies.
Collect supporting documentation for employee credit card transactions and record journal entries.
Under the supervision of the Finance Manager, prepare month-end schedules for the organization and its international branch.
Prepare bank reconciliations related to accounts payable and receivable activities.
Work closely with our accounting partners.
Suggest and contribute to process improvement projects.
Provide occasional backup support for LawZero’s payroll processing when the person responsible for payroll is absent.
Assist the accounting team with related tasks.

What you bring

Education: a Diploma of College Studies (DEC) in Accounting or a bachelor’s degree in Accounting.
Experience: at least two years as an Accounting Technician, with experience in accounts payable and receivable, month-end closing, payroll and employee expenses.
A strong focus on accuracy, efficient data entry skills and comfort with repetitive operational tasks.
Experience in a growing organization with multiple entities and international operations.
Experience in a non-profit organization is an asset.
Ability to adapt to a dynamic and constantly evolving environment.
Strong analytical skills, thoroughness and attention to detail.
Independence, resourcefulness and excellent organizational skills.
Ability to work as part of a team and collaborate with partners across different organizations.
Proficiency in French and English.
Strong working knowledge of Google Workspace (Google Sheets, Google Docs) and/or Microsoft Office (Excel, Word).
Knowledge of NetSuite or another ERP system is an asset.

What we offer

The chance to contribute meaningfully to a globally critical initiative
Comprehensive health benefits (including mental health and wellness management account)
20 days of vacation per year upon start
Employer contribution of 4% to your retirement savings, with no required employee match
Additional compensation totaling 8% of your salary to apply towards additional retirement savings or bonuses (independent of group and individual performance)
A team of passionate world-class experts in their field
A collaborative and inclusive work environment in our vibrant office space in the heart of Little Italy, in the trendy Mile-Ex district, close to public transportation

About LawZero

LawZero is a non-profit organization committed to advancing research and creating technical solutions that enable safe-by-design AI systems. Its scientific direction is based on new research and methods proposed by Professor Yoshua Bengio, the most cited AI researcher in the world. Based in Montreal, LawZero’s research aims to build non-agentic AI that learns primarily to understand the world rather than to act in it, giving truthful answers to questions based on transparent and externalized probabilistic reasoning. Such AI systems could be used to accelerate scientific discovery, to provide oversight for agentic AI systems, and to advance the understanding of AI risks and how to avoid them. LawZero believes that AI should be cultivated as a global public good - developed and used safely towards human flourishing. For more information, visit www.lawzero.org
