Intermediate Accountant

At Live to Play Sports, parent company of Norco Bicycles and Canada's largest distributor of premium bikes and cycling gear, we've been making lives better through cycling since 1964. As our Intermediate Accountant, you'll help keep that business strong: owning day-to-day general accounting activities, supporting financial reporting, and serving as a key contributor to month-end and year-end close in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.

If you're someone who shares our passion for cycling, or simply wants to bring your accounting expertise to a company that's part of something people genuinely love, we'd love to hear from you.
