About The Role
Move Smart Rentals is hiring an experienced Senior Bookkeeper to maintain complete, accurate, and well-organized financial records across our Canadian operations.

The successful candidate will be responsible for daily transaction recording, bank and credit-card reconciliations, GST/HST accounting, payroll entries, intercompany transactions, general-ledger maintenance, month-end support, and internal financial reporting.
This is not a basic data-entry or invoice-processing role. We need someone who can independently investigate discrepancies, correct accounting issues, maintain reliable documentation, and ensure the books are accurate and ready for management and external-accountant review.

- Bachelor’s degree or diploma in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration with an accounting concentration, or a closely related field
