The Finance Officer is directly responsible for managing the day-to-day financial operations of the Inuvik Housing Authority according to the LHO Financial Administration Manual (NWT Housing Corporation), policies set by the Board of Directors and Management, Partnership Agreements and generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

SCOPE

The Finance Officer position is located in Inuvik and reports to the Executive Manager.

The Inuvik Housing Authority is responsible for the delivery of social housing in Inuvik.
