Location

Vancouver, BC | Canada


Job description

Successful real estate finance and investment services firm with a great corporate culture! The team is fun-loving, tight-knit, friendly, and collaborative. SWIM has placed many people at this firm over the years with very positive feedback. We are looking for an Accountant who wants to do good work for good people, and to grow over the years with a stable, successful, and reputable Canadian organization.

Who- the Company: 
A very stable and successful multi-entity real estate finance company (mortgages, property management, real estate investments, etc.) that was established over 20 years ago. Many people stay with this company a long time due to the great culture and the job stability.

What- the Role:

On behalf of our client, SWIM is looking for a Junior Accountant. This is a newly created role due to ongoing company growth.  The Accountant will work very closely with the VP Accounting & Finance, the Intermediate Accountant and the Controller (the last two were placed by SWIM). 
The new Accountant will be responsible for accounts payable (much of it via EFT), accounts receivable, bank account and credit card reconciliations, managing various Excel spreadsheets, cheque runs, etc. These responsibilities are for the parent company as well as multiple entities that hold real estate assets, a mortgage investment corporation, a brokerage company, joint ventures, limited partnerships and associated holding companies.  
With time the Accountant can get more and more exposure to the full-cycle of accounting, including supporting month-end/quarter-end/year-end, financial reporting, and budgeting. The Accountant will also get to see many lines of business involving property accounting, fund accounting, investment accounting, trust accounting, etc. SWIM will provide interested candidates with a thorough job description.

Who- the Candidate:

We are looking for someone who wants to do good work for good people, and who wants to develop gradually over the years with a very stable, successful, and reputable Canadian organization. Candidates will have at least 2 years and ideally 4+ years of progressive accounting experience within a corporate environment.

 

 

Why: 

This is a diverse accounting role that will enable you to work for an interesting, stable, and reputable organization. Great opportunity to really feel part of a tight-knit and friendly team.  Opportunity for long-term growth and to take on more and more complex responsibilities with time.

Where: 

Located in the heart of Downtown Vancouver, BC in a beautiful corporate office. Extremely transit-accessible. Good work/life balance. A BIG perk is that the company buys lunch for all employees every day- yum yum!

How Much:

Base salary is commensurate with accounting experience and education, likely in the range of $50,000 to $65,000, perhaps with some wiggle room beyond if someone has highly relevant work experience, qualifications, and skills.  Plus health & dental benefits, paid vacation, relevant professional development support, and the aforementioned daily paid lunch program. Please discuss your total compensation expectations with SWIM!

When & How to Apply:

If you are qualified for, and interested in, this accounting opportunity with a well-established and reputable company, please do not delay in applying as this search is moving very quickly! If you already have a Recruiter at SWIM, please reach out to that Consultant directly. If you do not yet have a contact at Swim Recruiting, please hit 'APPLY NOW'and send us your resume (preferably in MS Word format as it works best with SWIM’s internal systems). Thank you!
