Accountant – Cpa Student; Training-Focused
ABOUT CARBONET
Carbo Net is a Vancouver-based water treatment company with operations in Canada and the US. We're developing innovative solutions to critical challenges in industrial wastewater treatment, with our head office, R&D lab, and production facility in Vancouver, and a second production facility in Texas. We're at an exciting inflection point—past the R&D phase, scaling our commercial operations, and expanding into multiple new markets.
Our leadership team brings deep technical and business expertise, and we're building a culture where people can make a real impact.
We're looking for an Accountant to support our month-end close and full-cycle accounting operations. This is a hybrid role with flexibility on in-office days—you'll have autonomy to structure your week around what works best for the team and the business.
This is a training-focused role designed for someone working toward their CPA designation. You'll receive structured mentorship and hands-on guidance as you build competency across our financial operations. As a small, growing company, you'll get genuine exposure to all aspects of our accounting: GL management, reconciliations, accruals, reporting, and board-level support. You'll work closely with our leadership team to support fundraising and strategic planning.

- Manage general ledger, account reconciliations, and accrual entries under guidance
- Process payroll and coordinate with HR on compensation matters
- Assist in the preparation of management, investor, and board reporting
- Support accounts payable and accounts receivable processes
- Contribute to budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning initiatives
- Help build and document accounting procedures as we scale
- Coordinate with external auditors and advisors
- Currently enrolled in or working toward CPA designation (or equivalent accounting designation)
- Strong foundational accounting knowledge (or willingness to learn quickly)
- Ability to work independently with clear direction and ask good questions
- Comfort with growth and changing priorities in a lean environment
- Genuine interest in scaling with the company (this role has real development potential)
- Detail-oriented and organized approach to financial tasks
- Structured training and mentorship from experienced financial leadership
- Real-world exposure to mid-market accounting operations
- Flexibility and autonomy in how you structure your work week
- Opportunity to grow into a senior accounting role as you complete your CPA
- Competitive compensation commensurate with experience
