Project Accountant Accounting

$65k - $85k per year

Randstad

re you a proactive finance professional who loves variety? We are sourcing a dynamic Project Accountant for our client. This unique role blends full-cycle material accounting with hands-on logistics support in a fast-paced, project-driven environment.
If you thrive on keeping projects on track and ledgers balanced, we want to hear from you!
This role offers a unique mix of high-level accounting and active, "on-the-ground" project logistics.

  • Professional Growth: Gain experience in a federally regulated environment and play a key role in a major software transition (Sage to Oracle).
  • Impactful Work: Your logistics support directly ensures that responders and project teams have the food, shelter, and supplies they need to succeed in the field.
  • Work across multiple departments, building a broad internal network and becoming a go-to resource for the entire organization.

You will be the backbone of the Material Assets and Management Accounting lifecycle—from initial planning to final disposal. When you aren't managing the books, you’ll be on the front lines providing vital logistics support for project teams.

Financial & Asset Management: Handle the full asset lifecycle, including additions, disposals, impairments, and transfers.

  • Precision Accounting: Manage monthly depreciation, amortization, and inventory reconciliations. You’ll oversee month-end and year-end processes (accruals, adjusting entries, and ledger maintenance).
  • Logistics & Field Support: During active projects, you’ll shift gears to coordinate food services, supply distribution, and facility setup (including sanitation and sleeping quarters) for tactical responders.
  • Reporting & Strategy: Develop budgets, financial plans, and innovative tools to improve workflow and justify key business decisions.
  • Team Collaboration: Act as the primary backup for the Project Team and secondary support for Finance/Accounting.

You are a "full-cycle" thinker who is just as comfortable auditing a spreadsheet as you are coordinating supplies in the field. You are flexible, proactive, and possess the analytical "detective" skills needed for audit and proofreading tasks.
  • Education: 2–4 year degree/diploma in Accounting or a related field.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in Oracle and Sage; advanced Excel skills are a must.
  • Experience in Material Accounting within the Medical or Engineering sectors is highly preferred.
  • Strong functional Bilingualism (English/French) is required.

If you are a flexible, proactive professional ready to take on a hybrid accounting and logistics challenge, we want to meet you!
Please submit your resume and a brief cover letter highlighting your experience with material accounting and your familiarity with ICS protocols to andrea.As a result, we are committed to developing and implementing strategies to increase the equity, diversity and inclusion within the workplace by examining our internal policies, practices, and systems throughout the entire lifecycle of our workforce, including its recruitment, retention and advancement for all employees. In addition to our deep commitment to respecting human rights, we are dedicated to positive actions to affect change to ensure everyone has full participation in the workforce free from any barriers, systemic or otherwise, especially equity-seeking groups who are usually underrepresented in Canada's workforce, including those who identify as women or non-binary/gender non-conforming; Indigenous or Aboriginal Peoples; persons with disabilities (visible or invisible) and; members of visible minorities, racialized groups and the LGBTQ2+ community.
Randstad Canada is committed to creating and maintaining an inclusive and accessible workplace for all its candidates and employees by supporting their accessibility and accommodation needs throughout the employment lifecycle. We ask that all job applications please identify any accommodation requirements by sending an email to View email address on randstad.com.
