WHO WE ARE
The First Nations Public Service Secretariat's (FNPSS) mission is to strengthen and enhance capacity in First Nations communities and organizations, on an individual and Nation level.

HOW WE DO IT

About the role

  • You're passionate about supporting and empowering First Nations peoples and have a desire to contribute to positive change.

A DAY IN THE LIFE

  • Ensure the seamless processing of benefits for our team, assuming the role of liaison for employee group benefits and maintaining employee personnel files.
  • Channel your financial skills as you assist in preparing audit documents, financial reviews and statements, and quarterly reports, contributing to the overall financial operations of the organization.
  • Navigate banking and credit card transactions with precision, keeping an eye on our financial pulse.
  • Reconcile accounts monthly, promptly addressing any discrepancies to ensure financial accuracy.
  • Generate and distribute invoices for services provided, maintaining compliance with FNS guidelines, handling inquiries professionally and with cultural sensitivity.
  • Proactively identify opportunities to streamline processes and enhance efficiency, staying in line with company financial policies.
  • Uphold respect for First Nation cultural values in all financial interactions.
  • Harness your multitasking skills to manage various tasks within your purview, including cash management, process documentation, and records management.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE
  • At least 2-3 years of experience in an accounting or bookkeeping role, with experience conducting basic related functions.
  • Completion of a bookkeeping diploma, certificate, or equivalent experience as outlined above.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills that enable you to make connections with people easily.
