WHAT WE VALUE:

We are looking for individuals who share our vision of building a creative and compassionate society, inspired through the arts. Our team is made up of people with a diverse range of interests — singers, actors, musicians, playwrights, coaches, teachers, gamers, bakers, photographers, athletes, dancers. People whose interests encompass the widest spectrum. We even have furry, four-legged friends in the office. We value people who strive to do the right thing, and work to be their best. People with open minds, hearts, and arms.

Working within a fluid and fast-paced environment, the Accounting Coordinator is flexible in nature and takes initiative to ensure that the Corporate Services team is supported in all areas of accounting and finance in order to function efficiently.
The Accounting Coordinator’s primary responsibilities will focus on select areas of entry-level accounts receivable and accounts payable functions, with a secondary focus on supporting with other miscellaneous tasks within Corporate Services. This position utilizes communication and organizational skills to effectively manage the workflow and priorities within finance and accounting, while exuding high levels of attention to detail and organization with each task.
You will manage accounts payable by maintaining vendor records, coding invoices, obtaining necessary approvals, and ensuring timely payments through cheques, EFTs, or wire transfers. You will also prepare GST entries for US transactions and meet all deadlines with the support of our Controller. On the accounts receivable side, you will prepare and record internal and event settlements, review contracts for accuracy, handle non-show related invoices, and manage bank deposits and client payments through DocuSign.
Additionally, you will support general accounting functions by ensuring accurate month-end accruals, monitoring account payments, posting receiving batches, and preparing bank entries. Your role will also include double-checking hourly staff timesheets, preparing T4A and T4NR forms.
