Dartmouth, Canada Summa Financial Services Full time

Description

We need a smart, detailed, curious and all-knowing Bookkeeper to help us revolutionize the future of small business.

Running a small business is hard. Often the person running a small business is highly skilled in the service they provide, but not so skilled in the running of an actual business. You're an amazing chef, but don't know how to run payroll. You're a talented gardener but you don't know how to predict cash flow. And why should you? Time is short, the learning curve is way too high, your bank talks at you like you've got an MBA and the chance of failure is always huge. In fact 45% of small businesses fail within the first five years of being founded.

We want to change that.

Summa is a modern tech-first financial services company with zero aspirations to build a social network to rival Linkedin or bolt a bad version of TikTok into QuickBooks. Instead, we want to build something truly unique which is actually useful to real people every day. This means providing small businesses with the best customer experience imaginable, educating and empowering owners to help them be better, and protecting their accounts and assets like they're our own.

This is where you come in.

We're looking for a Bookkeeper who has seen it all. You've been exposed to many different types of businesses and books and you generally know how to make sense of any mess. You know your accounting softwares and know how to make the numbers work and explain why. From day one you will be managing live books, talking with clients about real problems and trying to solve them in real time. You'll jump between the worlds best cloud accounting platforms, making the numbers work, and approving reports. You'll assist real business founders who will turn to you for help when they need it most and will make decisions based on your prescribed solutions and strategies.

Requirements

You'll be working with real accounts and books all while adding value to the team - so you'll need at least 3 years experience of fast-paced bookkeeping environments. Time in the seat though matters less to us than the talent and ability to just get sh*t done - and that you're incredibly reliable, personable and loveable in equal amounts.

You'll know accrual bookkeeping, payroll, debits, credits, clearing accounts, reconciliations inside out, upside down and back to front. You know how things escalate, how to de-escalate them and make good.

You'll be working with bleeding edge technology, so you'll need to have solid knowledge of online / cloud based accounting software such as Wave, Xero and QuickBooks. Even better if you've used project management or client management software before.

You'll be dealing with real people every day. Everyone at Summa talks with clients directly, so you'll need people skills, a love of helping people and the patience to solve difficult human problems.

You'll be able to learn but also to progress. Progression usually happens through critique and discussion. You'll be able to do this in a structured and supportive environment and you'll be excited to learn, do, improve and progress, and you'll be happy to lead critiques with your team in a blame-free environment.

You'll thrive in an environment where curiosity, ownership and responsibility are a given. We offer all the support you'll ever need, but everyone is responsible for the work they do, their successes and their failures. As a company we embrace ownership as a form of self-empowerment through constant learning.

You'll appreciate agility and efficiency. We'll provide agile training and coaching, but the ethos of agile is the foundation of everything we do. We work as efficiently as we can to produce the best outcomes possible - and we constantly learn from our mistakes.

You'll need to be a resident of Canada when applying for this role.

Benefits

Mentorship, support and coaching to everyone, whenever it is needed.

A structured career path that you control.

A commitment to a progressive, accessible, equal, transparent and positive working environment for all.

Good benefits, from physical health to mental health and beyond.

Generous, flexible vacation days - we believe that everyone should take ownership and responsibility over their own time - and when they do they work at their best.

Progressive and flexible maternity / paternity / childcare options - we offer everyone the same flexible maternity, paternity or childcare options regardless of their family set up.
