Job description

About Us

Life is complicated enough. At Akash Homes, we believe building a home shouldn’t be. We’ve grown fast by doing things differently - removing surprises, prioritizing quality, and delivering homes that feel as good as they look. We’re scaling quickly across Western Canada, and we need people who are ready to dig in and help shape what comes next.

If you haven’t heard of us: Akash Homes is a homebuilder headquartered in Edmonton, with active communities in Edmonton, Calgary, and Winnipeg. We have an ambitious growth trajectory—and we’ve doubled year over year. We’re now one of the top 5 builders by permits in Edmonton and top 20 in Calgary. We’ve grown from a small (but mighty) team of 17 in 2023 to over 75 in 2025 (and counting). This kind of growth isn’t just about the numbers—it’s about the culture we’re building, the people we're investing in, and the momentum we’re proud to sustain.

The Role

We are seeking an Accounts Payable Administrator for Akash Homes, based in Edmonton, Alberta.

The Opportunity

At Akash Homes, finance is more than processing transactions, it’s about building structure that supports growth. As our organization continues to scale, we’re looking for someone who takes pride in accuracy, thrives in a fast-moving environment, and wants to contribute to building stronger systems and processes.

This role offers exposure beyond traditional accounts payable responsibilities. You’ll work closely with accounting, construction, and operations teams while helping improve workflows, strengthen controls, and support the financial backbone of the organization.

One year at Akash Homes is like three years elsewhere. The pace is fast, the learning curve is steep, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact is real.

• Build a strong understanding of Akash Homes’ accounts payable processes, approval structures, and vendor workflows
• Improve accuracy and efficiency within invoice processing, payment scheduling, and reconciliation activities
• Build strong relationships with Akash Homes’ trades and vendors while developing an understanding of their accounts, expectations, and payment need

What You’ll Own

• Review, code, and process vendor invoices accurately while ensuring proper approval workflows are followed
• Match invoices to purchase orders and work with stakeholders to resolve discrepancies
• Maintain organized and up-to-date vendor records and AP documentation
• Schedule and process payments according to payment terms and internal policies
• Respond to vendor inquiries in a professional and timely manner
• Reconcile AP subledger with the general ledger
• Assist with preparation of accounts payable aging reports and accruals
• Support month-end close activities through reconciliation of AP accounts
• Assist with cost coding and expense allocation reviews across departments
• Support audit preparation and financial review documentation
• Collaborate with construction and operations teams to support accurate cost tracking
• Identify opportunities to improve efficiency, automation, and accuracy within AP processes
• Support ERP enhancements and digital invoice workflow improvements
• Help maintain AP-related policies, procedures, and internal controls

What You’ll Bring

We welcome applicants from a variety of backgrounds. What matters most is your attention to detail, accountability, and willingness to contribute to a collaborative and evolving finance team.

• Experience managing accounts payable processes from invoice entry through payment reconciliation
• Proficiency in Sage (Simply Accounting), HomeFront, or similar ERP/accounting systems
• Strong understanding of PO and invoice matching processes
• Intermediate Microsoft Excel skills, including formulas and reporting functions
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities
• Professional communication skills with both internal and external stakeholders
• A proactive mindset with a focus on problem solving and continuous improvement
• Ability to work collaboratively across departments in a fast-paced environment

About

We’re less concerned about checking every box and more interested in your ability to contribute, learn, and grow with the business. That said, the following would be considered assets:

• Diploma or education in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• Experience supporting audit preparation or financial reporting processes
• Experience within construction, homebuilding, or a high-growth environment
