We are a growing, full-service CPA accounting firm based in Markham, Ontario, providing assurance, accounting, bookkeeping, and tax services to businesses across a variety of industries throughout Ontario.

At KSSP Partners LLP, we pride ourselves on fostering a collaborative, team-oriented environment while delivering high-quality accounting and tax services to our clients. We believe in investing in our people, supporting professional development, and maintaining a rewarding work-life balance.

We are also passionate about embracing technology and innovation to transform the way accounting and bookkeeping services are delivered. We are actively exploring and implementing artificial intelligence (AI), automation tools, and modern cloud-based applications to streamline workflows, improve efficiency, and deliver a better experience for our clients.

We value initiative, communication, curiosity, and practical problem-solving. We encourage our team members to challenge existing processes, bring forward new ideas, and play an active role in shaping how we work.

We offer competitive compensation, flexible work arrangements (including opportunities to work from home and the office), and a supportive environment where you can continue developing both technically and professionally.

As a Bookkeeper, you will be an integral part of our team, with opportunities to contribute not only to our clients' day-to-day accounting needs but also to the ongoing development and modernization of our bookkeeping practice.

What you will be responsible for:

• Managing day-to-day bookkeeping activities using cloud-based accounting platforms such as QuickBooks Online and Xero, as well as QuickBooks Desktop where applicable.
• Performing transaction classification, general ledger maintenance, bank and credit card reconciliations, HST filings, WSIB filings, and payroll processing.
• Preparing and maintaining accurate monthly financial records, reconciliations, and supporting schedules.
• Following up with clients regarding outstanding information, documentation, and filing deadlines.
• Communicating with the Canada Revenue Agency regarding inquiries and correspondence relating to client matters.
• Maintaining strong client relationships through responsive communication and excellent customer service.
• Developing, documenting, and improving bookkeeping processes and procedures to ensure consistency, accuracy, and efficiency.
• Leveraging AI-powered applications, automation tools, and modern accounting technologies to streamline repetitive tasks and improve bookkeeping workflows.
• Identifying opportunities to automate and improve existing processes, including transaction processing, reconciliations, document management, and client communications.
• Participating in the testing, implementation, and refinement of new software, AI tools, and automated workflows.
• Collaborating with team members to develop scalable, technology-driven bookkeeping processes while maintaining appropriate review procedures and quality controls.

What you will bring to KSSP Partners LLP:

• Strong understanding of accounting principles and bookkeeping practices.
• Previous experience as a Bookkeeper or in a similar role, preferably within a public accounting firm.
• Proficiency with QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, or Xero.
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple client engagements and deadlines.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with confidence interacting directly with clients.
• A proactive, solutions-oriented mindset and a willingness to take ownership of responsibilities.
• A genuine interest in technology, artificial intelligence, and the evolving role of automation within accounting and bookkeeping.
• An innovative mindset, with an interest in challenging traditional processes and finding smarter, more efficient ways of working.
• Comfort learning new applications, experimenting with emerging technologies, and adapting to changing workflows.
• A collaborative attitude and enthusiasm for contributing ideas that improve both internal operations and the client experience.

Experience with bookkeeping automation platforms, AI-powered accounting applications, or workflow automation tools would be considered an asset, but is not required. We place significant value on curiosity, initiative, and a willingness to learn.
