Organization Overview:

The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of St. John’s serves a Catholic population of 111,000, across 18 parishes, spanning the Avalon and Burin Peninsulas. It operates a number of registered charities throughout the region and is governed by both Canon and Civil Law.

The Archdiocese is currently transitioning its operations and governance structure, and is looking for a talented and experienced Corporate Accountant to join its team.

Position Summary:

Using initiative, tact, judgment and respect for privacy and confidentiality, the position reports to the Chief Financial Officer. This position is responsible for accounting and administrative functions of the Business Office of the Archdiocese.

The position operates with a high degree of autonomy, so the successful candidate will need the ability to take initiative and seek out opportunities to improve our current relationships and processes.

The successful candidate will exercise independent judgment in the resolution of routine administrative and accounting issues, with complex problems resolved with the assistance of the Chief Financial Officer. Adherence to legislative requirements and accounting policies and procedures is extremely important.

Key Responsibilities:

As the successful candidate, you will be responsible for recording the business transactions of the Business Office over the course of each reporting period, recording any necessary adjusting entries, producing the financial statements, and closing the accounts at period end.

You will be responsible for maintaining the Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable sub-ledgers at the Archdiocesan level, and reconciling the bank and general ledger accounts.

You will need to work collaboratively with the Parish Accountant to ensure that inter-departmental transactions between the Archdiocesan Business Office and the parishes are reconciled and recorded and, when needed, assist the Parish Accountant with unusual or non-routine transactions.

You will also be responsible for the preparation of working papers to support the annual assurance process, and other ad hoc financial analysis from time to time.

In addition, you will be responsible for the preparation and filing of the Archdiocese’s statutory filings and remittances.

Qualifications and Requirements:

• A university degree and/or college diploma in accounting or equivalent related experience is preferred.

• 5-10 years’ experience working in an office environment, performing accounting administration work

• Experience in not-for-profit accounting would be an asset

• Experience working with accounting software, in particular Sage 50 Premium

• Experience with Microsoft Office, especially Excel

• A professional accounting designation would be asset, but is not required

Personal competencies:

• An avid collaborator who has the ability to develop and maintain effective relationships

• Ability to be detail-oriented and perform work with accuracy and speed

• Ability to make timely, informed decisions that take into account the facts, goals, constraints, and risks

• Ability to be organized and manage time effectively, while ensuring the optimal use of resources to achieve objectives

• An ongoing commitment to continuous improvement

• Ability to maintain confidentiality in all aspects of the role

• Demonstrated effective oral and written communications skills

• Respectful attitude toward co-workers, clergy, service providers, parishioners, volunteers, and other members of the public

• Trustworthy through consistent honesty and professionalism in all interactions

Salary and benefits:

Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications. The Archdiocese also offers health, dental, and disability benefits, and an employer-matched RRSP program.
