**Working for the University of Alberta**

The University of Alberta acknowledges that we are located on Treaty 6 territory, and respects the histories, languages and cultures of First Nations, Métis, Inuit and all First Peoples of Canada, whose presence continues to enrich our vibrant community.

The University of Alberta is teeming with change makers, community builders, and world shapers who lead with purpose each and every day. We are home to more than 40,000 students in 200+ undergraduate and 500+ graduate programs, over 13,000 faculty and staff, 260,000 alumni worldwide and have been recognized as one of Canada’s Greenest Employers for over a decade.

Your work will have a meaningful influence on a fascinating cross section of people—from our students and stakeholders, to our renowned researchers and innovators who are quite literally curing diseases, making discoveries and generating solutions that make the world healthier, safer, stronger, and more just.

**Position**

Under direction of the Manager -Institutional Programs, the financial analyst 2 will provide financial account support. Unlike most funding programs where the accountability rests with an academic staff member, most of the funding programs to be handled by this position rest with the University, namely the Vice-President (Research) and delegates. One of the main sponsors of programs handled by this position will be the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI). The total funding to date from CFI and its matching partners is in excess of $631 million. Including matching projects, there are approximately 226 active CFI related projects. In addition to the CFI, this position will provide financial account support to other sponsors as determined by the supervisor.

The Financial Analyst 2 performs multiple tasks associated predominantly with the post-award, day
- to-day administration of research funding provided to the University by CFI and its matching partners. The position involves continual monitoring of a high volume of complex research projects for levels of expenditures, overall accuracy and completeness of transaction entries to ensure that matching requirements are met. In this capacity the incumbent is responsible for early identification of problems and requires the ability to investigate discrepancies and perform analyses.

This position will liaise and provide support and guidance to sponsors, staff within other teams of RSO and the university community. This position is responsible for using professional judgement to ensure that University and sponsor procedures, guidelines and policies (which are consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)) are applied at all times. In this functionally-based service environment, the position is expected to act independently and in a team environment to ensure quick and efficient services are delivered both internally and externally.

The Finance Analyst 2 must possess strong accounting, analytical and communication skills, coupled with demonstrated technical skills (PeopleSoft, Excel, etc.). The Finance Analyst 2 is expected to provide analyses, reports, and other financial deliverables within stringent time frames.

**Duties**
- Prepares, signs off and submits claims to sponsors in multiple currencies that reflect expenses incurred under research projects;
- Investigates and resolves financial discrepancies in the accounting records such as those related to:

- Budgets
- Revenue
- Billings/Accounts Receivable
- Expenditures
- Project financial statements
- Administration and processing of subgrants;
- Assists with the monitoring, investigating and collecting past due accounts receivable items;
- Provides assistance with establishing financial requirements to staff who negotiate agreements;
- Reviews and interprets financial terms and conditions of funding awards to complete financial reporting requirements;
- Prepares and submits general ledger journal entries for approval;
- Applies internal policies and procedures to ensure proper recognition of revenue that will ultimately be reflected in the financial statements of the University;
- Identifies system related errors or issues and recommends solutions;
- Develops and implements updates to RSO training/development/presentations for the University community;
- Performs detailed analysis and closes research projects once all terms and conditions have
