2. Workflow Optimization & Systems Stabilization (30%)
- Data Integration Tracking: Trace and document the transaction lifecycle from Rycor into the Atrieve Finance environment, identifying areas where manual workarounds or duplicate entries occur.
- Process Automation: Assist in testing and implementing automated file imports, batch scheduling, and improved mapping rules between Rycor, external clearing sheets, and Atrieve.
- Training & Resources: Develop practical "cheat sheets" and step-by-step guides for school administrative personnel to reduce common Rycor and transactional errors at the source.
- Operational Evaluation: Provide feedback to the Director of Finance and Senior Accountant regarding ongoing workload requirements, helping establish best practices and permanent structural recommendations for year-end and future fiscal cycles.
Qualifications & Attributes
Education & Credentials: Degree or Diploma in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration. Active enrollment the CPA program, or an ASBOA Certified School Business Official (CSBO) designation, is considered an asset.
Hands-on Accounting Experience: Minimum 3–5 years of practical accounting experience with demonstrated strength in multi-account bank reconciliations, clearing account balancing, and month-end journal entry preparation.
K-12 Sector Experience: Direct financial or accounting experience within an Alberta or Canadian public/separate school division is strongly preferred.
