Accounting Manager
Smithers Toyota
Smithers, British Columbia

Compensation: $75,000 – $80,000 per year, based on experience

+ Full Benefits

Reports to:

- Controller (Certified Professional Accountant), Central Accounting

- General Manager, Smithers Toyota

Role Overview

Smithers Toyota is seeking an experienced Accounting Manager to serve as the in‑house lead for daily accounting operations. This role is responsible for the accuracy, consistency, and integrity of store‑level accounting while working closely with both the central Controller and the General Manager.

The Accounting Manager plays a proactive role in identifying financial alerts, anomalies, and trends, supporting leadership in addressing issues early and making informed operational decisions.

This is a structured role with defined support, including oversight from a central accounting team and an in‑house Accounts Payable Assistant.

Key Responsibilities

Daily and Weekly Accounting Operations

- Lead daily accounting processes for Smithers Toyota

- Ensure accurate and timely posting in the dealer management system

- Review and reconcile general ledger, bank, and trust accounts

- Maintain strong internal controls and documentation standards

Month‑End and Reporting

- Lead month‑end close at the store level

- Prepare reconciliations, schedules, and supporting documentation

- Collaborate with the Controller on financial statements, adjustments, and compliance

- Identify variances and trends proactively

Leadership and Oversight

- Provide day‑to‑day support and direction to the Accounts Payable Assistant

- Act as the escalation point for accounting‑related questions at the store level

Alerts, Anomalies, and Leadership Support

- Work closely with the General Manager to flag financial anomalies, risks, and unusual trends

- Communicate issues clearly with context and recommended next steps

Communication and Collaboration

- Serve as the primary accounting contact for Smithers Toyota leadership

- Communicate effectively with non‑accounting managers

- Partner with the central accounting team on process improvement and standardization

What This Role Is — and Is Not

This role is:

- The senior accounting lead on‑site

- A leadership role with structure and support

- Focused on consistency, accuracy, and proactive insight

This role is not:

- A standalone Controller or Comptroller role

- Responsible for group‑level tax planning

- A high‑stress role requiring excessive hours

Qualifications and Experience

- Proven accounting experience in a professional environment

- Experience leading or supporting junior accounting staff

- Strong understanding of accounting fundamentals and internal controls

- Ability to identify and communicate financial issues clearly and calmly

- Dealership accounting experience is an asset but not required

Certified Professional Accountant designation is an asset but not required.

Why Join Smithers Toyota

- Clear reporting structure and leadership support

- In‑house accounting team support

- Long‑term stability within a growing dealership group

- Opportunity to add value through insight, not just reporting

Thank you for your interest in joining Smithers Toyota.
We look forward to hearing from you and connecting with qualified candidates in the coming weeks.
