Burnaby, Canada Voltech Electric Ltd Full time

Voltech Fire Protection is seeking a bright, multi-tasking Accounting Assistant with a positive attitude

The position consists primarily of bookkeeping functions, telephone reception and clerical duties. Position will be a full-time role; however, the training process will begin with 5 days a week, 5 hours per day, leading to full-time upon successful understanding and practice of the required procedures.

**Responsibility Descriptions**:
(in order of most prevalent to least prevalent)

**Invoicing**: Using Sage 50 Quantum Accounting program, you will be entering very specific and extensive details from the technician’s work orders into comprehensive and complete invoices. Full understanding and usage of the English language is key; knowledge of industry terminology a plus. You will be required to speak directly to the technicians, service coordinators, and the logistics coordinator to gather and compile accurate descriptions and invoice information.

Record keeping, although not the most consuming task in this position, is probably the most important. Your “input” is essential as all departments rely on the information you record not only to discern market trends, track operation costs, but more importantly to relay crucial history with our clients. Using CRM and Excel, this task must be done daily and with 100% accuracy. You will also be able to get your steps in by doing some filing and photocopying.

**Skill Requirements**: We are a small, fun, quirky office where each person counts. There is no redundancy here, and therefore, as the successful incumbent, you would become a vital part of the organization.

Computerized accounting aptitude is necessary along with the eagerness and ability to learn quickly. Preference given to applicants with experience and knowledge in Sage Accounting. In this role, you will have the opportunity to show us how you can hit the ground running
