About The Role MoveSmart Rentals is hiring an experienced Senior Accounts Payable Specialist to manage day-to-day accounts payable activities across our Canadian operations. This role is designed for someone who has strong full-cycle accounts payable experience, understands Canadian accounting practices, and can independently manage invoices, vendor accounts, payment preparation, reconciliations, and accounts payable reporting. We are not looking for an entry-level bookkeeper or someone whose experience is limited to invoice entry.

We need an experienced accounting professional who can take ownership of the accounts payable process, communicate confidently with Canadian vendors and internal departments, and maintain accurate financial records across multiple companies and properties.

What To Expect After Applying

Our recruitment team carefully reviews every application received. Applicants whose background appears to match the requirements of the role will be contacted by email within one to two business days and invited to complete a pre-recorded video interview. The recorded interview will include questions designed to assess your accounts payable experience, knowledge of Canadian accounting practices, HST understanding, technical skills, professional judgment, and ability to independently manage complex AP responsibilities.

Candidates who perform well during the recorded interview may be invited to continue to the next stage of the selection process.

You know how to investigate discrepancies, follow approval controls, maintain proper documentation, and communicate clearly when information is missing or incorrect.
