We are currently looking for a Systems Accountant to join our Corporate Accounting team on an 16-month contract . In this role, you'll play a key part in supporting BCAA's Guidewire Cloud migration by leading finance-focused testing activities and helping ensure accounting processes, reporting, and system integrations perform as expected in the new environment.

  • Collaborative and adaptable, working effectively across Finance, Information Services, project teams, and external vendors.
  • Organized and process-driven, with the ability to manage multiple testing activities and deliverables simultaneously.
  • A strong communicator who can clearly document findings, communicate impacts, and support decision-making.
  • Committed to accuracy, quality, and continuous improvement.

What you'll do

  • Execute and coordinate finance-related Business Acceptance Testing (BAT) activities and participate in System Integration Testing (SIT) and regression testing for the Guidewire Cloud migration.
  • Validate end-to-end accounting and reporting processes across Guidewire, Epicor, and related systems, including interfaces, reports, journal entries, reconciliations, and financial outputs.
  • Identify, document, and retest defects and variances, partnering with Information Services, project teams, and vendors to support root cause analysis and resolution.
  • Review test cases and expected outcomes to ensure finance requirements, accounting controls, reporting needs, and existing functionality are adequately covered.
  • Support dress rehearsals, cutover activities, and go-live readiness by validating accounting processes and financial results in the cloud environment.
  • Maintain testing documentation, including scenarios, defect logs, retest results, regression outcomes, and issue summaries.
  • Prepare and update testing trackers, reconciliation schedules, defect logs, and status reports to support project governance and decision-making.
  • Validate finance reports, dashboards, data extracts, and system interfaces to ensure accurate and complete outputs.
  • Support analysis related to migration testing results, cutover planning, blackout periods, and post-deployment stabilization activities.
  • Contribute to continuous improvements in testing practices, documentation standards, defect management, and controls over finance-related system changes.

What you'll bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Commerce, Accounting, Information Systems, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience supporting system testing, Business Acceptance Testing (BAT), System Integration Testing (SIT), and regression testing, ideally within Guidewire or other enterprise system implementations.
  • Experience working with ERP and general ledger systems, reporting tools, Excel, defect tracking tools, interfaces, and large data sets.
  • Knowledge of Guidewire and Epicor is considered an asset.
  • Exposure to accounting, financial reporting, reconciliations, or finance-related business processes is strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrated ability to execute test scenarios, validate results, document defects, and coordinate retesting through resolution.
  • Experience validating end-to-end business processes, integrations, reports, reconciliations, and system functionality across interconnected platforms.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and investigative skills, with exceptional attention to detail.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams.
