Junior Accountant

Contenuto del lavoro

Hydra Energy is growing! We are a small, but expanding tech company looking for a Bookkeeper/Jr. Accountant to assist the Controller in processing and maintaining bookkeeping/accounting functions.

Currently we are using Xero Accounting software, as such experience with Xero would be an asset but not necessary as long as you have experience in any cloud base accounting software. The company will be converting to an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) System in the near future. Experience in tracking government grants, such as SRED. IRAP, and others will also be a benefit.

As a small company, we embrace the relaxed environment and mentality, but still focused on the task at hand. We are located on Annacis (Delta), thus transportation is required to reach our office.
