Intermediate Accountant (2 Month Contract)

Intermediate Accountant (Contract)
$35/hour
2 Month Contract (May 5 – July 3)
Hybrid / Remote | Vancouver, BC
Your New Company
Hays Specialist Recruitment is partnering with a trusted not‑for‑profit technology organization (confidential) that supports collaboration across British Columbia’s research and education sectors. They are seeking an Intermediate Accountant to support the finance team during overlapping staff time off.
This is a well‑defined, short‑term contract ideal for an experienced accountant who can step in quickly, work independently, and contribute with minimal ramp‑up. The organization offers a flexible, respectful work environment and is fully open to hybrid or fully remote work.
Key Responsibilities
  • Process accounts payable invoices and payments using Tipalti, including allocation of prepaid expenses and capital asset additions
  • Create revenue invoices as required (infrequent but similar in complexity to AP processes)
  • Monitor and respond to finance inbox inquiries in a timely manner (within two business days), escalating issues as needed
  • Post bank transactions and routine monthly adjusting journal entries
  • Perform monthly balance sheet reconciliations with strong attention to accuracy
  • Support ad‑hoc accounting projects and finance initiatives as required
What You Need to Succeed
Must Haves
  • 2–3 years of intermediate‑level accounting experience (not entry‑level)
  • Strong hands‑on experience across full AP processes and general ledger activities
  • Solid professional judgment and ability to work independently
  • Experience with automated AP systems (Tipalti strongly preferred)
Nice to Haves
  • CPA designation or progress toward CPA
  • Experience in a technology‑focused or not‑for‑profit environment

What’s in It for You
This contract is a great opportunity to step into a stable, well‑run finance function and make an immediate contribution without a long‑term commitment. You’ll gain exposure to a specialized organization, enjoy flexibility in how you work, and apply your accounting expertise in a focused, supportive environment.
