Junior Accountant

Orion Digital

1d • Remote

About The Position

We’re hiring a high-potential Junior Accountant to join the Finance function of Orion Digital Corp, a dual-listed (TSX/NASDAQ) fintech operating across wealth management, payments, and lending. This is not a traditional entry-level accounting role. You will own approximately half your time in accounts payable - processing vendor invoices, managing payment runs, and maintaining the controls that protect the business. The other half sits in wealth accounting: posting fund entries, and supporting monthly reconciliations across wealth management accounts. You will work directly with the Controller and Finance Manager. You will understand the why behind every entry, not just the how. And you will be actively supported in completing your CPA designation by a team of designated professionals who are invested in your development. The pace is real. The work is visible. The team is small enough that your contribution matters from day one.

Requirements

• BCom or BBA with an accounting major or equivalent
• CPA PEP eligible — confirm academic prerequisites before applying
• Motivated to complete the CPA designation — this is a condition of the role
• You check your work before you say it’s done -you verify numbers against source systems
• You flag the anomaly - when something doesn’t look right you say so immediately
• You want to know why an entry is made, not just how to make it
• You follow through - when you commit to a deadline you meet it
• You're resourceful and not afraid to ask questions - you seek out answers, use available resources, and ask for help when needed

Nice To Haves

• AP or month-end close exposure from co-op or work experience
• NetSuite experience
• Exposure to fund accounting, financial services, or public company environments
• Intermediate to advanced Excel

Responsibilities

• Process vendor invoices, payment runs, and EFT uploads accurately and on schedule
• Maintain vendor records and banking details — apply payment controls on every transaction
• Flag anomalies before processing, not after — vendor payment controls are a first-principles responsibility
• Perform bank reconciliations across multiple accounts — daily and month-end
• Coordinate with vendors on payment queries and discrepancies
• Post fund accounting entries
• Support monthly reconciliations for wealth management accounts
• Support IFRS-compliant entries for fund structures under the guidance of the Finance Manager
• Prepare audit-ready supporting schedules for fund and corporate audit cycles
• Prepare journal entries with appropriate supporting documentation
• Complete assigned close checklist items on schedule, every month
• Support the AP close prerequisite — bank accounts reconciled before close proceeds
• Escalate anything unusual before it becomes someone else’s problem
• Document processes as you learn them — if it isn’t written down, it doesn’t exist
• Identify inefficiencies and bring proposed solutions, not just observations
• Support audit preparation — schedules, documentation, auditor queries
• Participate in NetSuite workflow improvements as the Finance function evolves

Benefits

• Bonus
• Meaningful equity
• Protected study time during exam periods
• Exam fees covered by Orion for first attempt on each module
• Active mentorship from the Controller and Finance Manager
• Practical experience that maps directly to CPA competency requirements
• Fully Remote Work
• Comprehensive Health Benefits - Access to medical, dental, and vision coverage plus a Health Spending Account
• Stock Options
• Flex Vacation - Benefit from paid time off, including vacation and personal days
• Wellbeing Programs - Access counselling services, mental health support, and additional wellness resources
