Project Accountant

$100k per year

Kassen Recruitment

A project-driven organization in the natural resources and infrastructure sector is seeking a Project Accountant to join its finance team supporting a major development in Quebec. This is an exciting opportunity to work closely with operations, contribute to the financial success of a large-scale development, and help establish finance processes in a dynamic, evolving environment.

About the Role

Reporting to a senior member of the finance team, the Project Accountant will support the financial management of a major development project. This position focuses on project accounting rather than traditional corporate accounting and offers broad exposure to project costing, financial reporting, procurement support, and process development. As the project grows, the scope of the role will continue to evolve, providing excellent opportunities for professional growth and increased responsibility.

What You'll Do

  • Monitor project costs, budgets, and expenditures to support effective financial management
  • Prepare project financial reports, forecasts, and analysis for finance and operational leadership
  • Track commitments, cost allocations, and project spending throughout the project lifecycle
  • Support procurement-related accounting activities, including invoice processing, vendor reconciliations, and cost tracking
  • Partner with project managers and operational teams to provide financial insights and support decision-making
  • Assist with month-end close activities, reconciliations, and financial reporting related to the project
  • Identify opportunities to improve reporting, controls, and financial processes as the project develops
  • Help establish scalable finance procedures and best practices within a growing project environment
  • Support special projects and other finance initiatives as business needs evolve
  • Travel to the project site in Quebec as required to collaborate with operational stakeholders

What You Bring

  • 3+ years of experience in project accounting or project finance
  • Experience within the mining, construction, engineering, infrastructure, or other project-based industries
  • Strong understanding of project costing, budgeting, cost tracking, and financial reporting
  • Bilingual communication skills in both French and English
  • Experience using ERP systems and strong Microsoft Excel skills
  • Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and adapt to a changing project environment
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills with both finance and operational teams
  • CPA designation is considered an asset but is not required
  • Ability to travel to project sites within Quebec as needed

Why Join

This is a unique opportunity to join a growing organization during an exciting stage of project development. You'll play a key role in building financial processes, working alongside operational teams, and contributing directly to the success of a major capital project. If you're looking for a broad, hands-on accounting role with meaningful impact, strong autonomy, and long-term growth potential, this position offers an excellent next step in your career.

Comptable de projet

Une organisation axée sur les projets dans le secteur des ressources naturelles et des infrastructures est à la recherche d'un Comptable de projet pour se joindre à son équipe des finances afin de soutenir un important projet de développement au Québec. Il s'agit d'une excellente occasion de travailler en étroite collaboration avec les équipes opérationnelles, de contribuer à la réussite financière d'un projet d'envergure et de participer à la mise en place des processus financiers dans un environnement dynamique et en constante évolution.

À propos du poste

Relevant d'un membre senior de l'équipe des finances, le Comptable de projet jouera un rôle clé dans la gestion financière d'un important projet de développement. Ce poste est principalement axé sur la comptabilité de projet plutôt que sur la comptabilité corporative traditionnelle. Vous serez impliqué dans le suivi des coûts de projet, la production de rapports financiers, le soutien aux activités d'approvisionnement ainsi que l'amélioration des processus financiers. À mesure que le projet évoluera, les responsabilités associées au poste se développeront également, offrant d'excellentes possibilités de croissance professionnelle.

Vos principales responsabilités

  • Assurer le suivi des coûts, des budgets et des dépenses du projet afin de soutenir une gestion financière efficace.
  • Préparer les rapports financiers, les prévisions et les analyses destinés aux équipes des finances et des opérations.
  • Effectuer le suivi des engagements financiers, des répartitions de coûts et des dépenses tout au long du cycle de vie du projet.
  • Soutenir les activités comptables liées aux approvisionnements, notamment le traitement des factures, les rapprochements avec les fournisseurs et le suivi des coûts.
  • Collaborer étroitement avec les gestionnaires de projet et les équipes opérationnelles afin de fournir des analyses financières favorisant une prise de décision éclairée.
  • Participer aux activités de clôture de fin de mois, aux rapprochements de comptes et à la production des rapports financiers liés au projet.
  • Identifier des occasions d'améliorer les processus financiers, les contrôles internes et les outils de production de rapports à mesure que le projet progresse.
  • Contribuer à l'élaboration et à la documentation de procédures financières évolutives ainsi que des meilleures pratiques.
  • Participer à des projets spéciaux et à d'autres initiatives financières selon les besoins de l'organisation.
  • Se déplacer au site du projet au Québec, au besoin, afin de collaborer avec les équipes opérationnelles.

Ce que vous apportez

  • Minimum de trois (3) années d'expérience en comptabilité de projet ou en finance de projet.
  • Expérience acquise dans les secteurs minier, de la construction, de l'ingénierie, des infrastructures ou dans tout autre environnement axé sur les projets.
  • Excellente compréhension du suivi des coûts de projet, de la budgétisation, de l'analyse des coûts et de la production de rapports financiers.
  • Excellentes aptitudes en communication, en français et en anglais.
  • Expérience avec un système ERP ainsi qu'une très bonne maîtrise de Microsoft Excel.
  • Capacité à travailler de façon autonome, à gérer plusieurs priorités et à évoluer dans un environnement en constante évolution.
  • Excellentes habiletés en communication et en collaboration avec les équipes des finances et des opérations.
  • Le titre de CPA constitue un atout, mais n'est pas une exigence.
  • Disponibilité pour se déplacer sur le site du projet au Québec lorsque requis.

Pourquoi vous joindre à nous

Il s'agit d'une occasion unique de vous joindre à une organisation à une étape clé du développement d'un projet majeur. Vous jouerez un rôle déterminant dans la mise en place des processus financiers, collaborerez étroitement avec les équipes opérationnelles et contribuerez directement au succès d'un important projet d'investissement. Si vous recherchez un poste diversifié, concret et offrant une grande autonomie, où vous pourrez avoir un impact réel tout en poursuivant votre développement professionnel, cette opportunité pourrait représenter la prochaine étape de votre carrière.
