Job description

Accounting Assistant is an entry-level position within the Accounting Series.

The position is responsible for performing a variety of tasks including accounts payable, accounts receivable, cash receipting and entry level reconciliations.

As experience is gained more complex and varied tasks will be assigned. Supervision and frequent review of work will lessen as incumbent demonstrates skill to perform the work independently.
