Job Title: Operations & Accounting Specialist (CAS / Advisory Support)

Location: Markham, Ontario (In-Office / Hybrid)

Type: Full-Time (Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM)

About Optimal Accounting Ltd.

Optimal Accounting is a high-growth, specialized Financial Operations & Fractional CFO practice headquartered in Markham, Ontario. We serve mid-market General Contractors and commercial construction enterprises across Canada and the United States ($15M to $100M+ revenue).

Unlike traditional CPA tax shops, we act as our clients' complete internal finance department—combining high-level executive CFO advisory with a modern, tech-driven global execution engine.

The Opportunity

We are seeking an enthusiastic, highly organized, and tech-forward Operations & Accounting Specialist to join our Markham team.

In this role, you will serve as a vital operational engine—supporting our Canadian Account Managers/CFOs, liaising with our global delivery teams, and ensuring daily financial workflows for our enterprise construction clients run seamlessly.

This position offers rapid career progression for a ambitious professional looking to move beyond traditional bookkeeping and develop into a Fractional Controller or Construction Advisory Consultant.

Key Responsibilities

Accounts Payable & Compliance: Oversee digital invoice processing via automation platforms, manage approval workflows, prepare AP aging reports, and review subcontractor lien waivers/pay-apps.
Accounts Receivable: Prepare billing packages, manage invoicing, and perform AR aging analysis for high-volume commercial projects.
Payroll & Time Tracking: Reconcile field employee time entries, handle payroll postings, and assist with job-cost allocations.
Banking & Reconciliations: Perform bank and credit card entries, reconciliations, and routine month-end GL postings.

Global Hub & Workflow Coordination:

Support onshore Account Managers by coordinating daily task flow and quality-checking deliverables from our offshore execution hub.
Act as a reliable operational bridge between client requests, Canadian CFO leads, and back-office processors.

Client Engagement & Advisory Support:

Serve as a professional, responsive point of contact for daily client accounting inquiries.
Assist in preparing monthly financial packages, WIP (Work in Progress) schedules, and ad-hoc analytical reports.

Qualifications & Skills

Education: College Advanced Diploma or Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration.
Experience: 1–3 years of hands-on experience in full-cycle bookkeeping, AP/AR, or accounting support (construction industry experience is a major asset).
Tech Savvy: Comfortable leveraging modern cloud platforms and advanced accounting software.
Experience or willingness to master enterprise ERPs like Jonas Premier, as well as QuickBooks Online, Procore, Dext, and Wagepoint.
Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel (VLOOKUPs, pivot tables, data management).
Communication & Professionalism: Excellent written and verbal English communication skills; comfortable speaking directly with business owners, vendors, and internal team members.
Detail & Process-Oriented: Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.

What We Offer

Clear Career Growth: Direct line of sight to advance into an Assistant Controller or Advisory Consulting role as the firm continues its North American expansion.
Enterprise Exposure: Hands-on training on enterprise-grade construction ERP systems (Jonas Premier) and high-level CFO advisory frameworks.
Collaborative Culture: A close-knit, supportive team environment where your work directly impacts company growth and team sanity.

Pay: From $40,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Casual dress
Dental care
On-site parking
Vision care

Ability to commute/relocate:

Markham, ON: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (required)

Experience:

Accounting: 1 year (preferred)

Work Location: In person
