**Our Journey at Keep**:
At Keep, we embarked on a mission started by a powerful question: Why hasn't the banking experience caught up with the rapid pace of technology?

This continues to fuel our passion for reshaping the Canadian fintech landscape. We provide businesses with a comprehensive suite of cross-border banking services, offering everything from credit cards to deposit accounts, currency conversions, and revenue financing.

With a team of seasoned global startup veterans with successful exits, Keep is committed to leading the charge as Canada's next-generation fintech institution. Backed by VCs in the fintech sector, we're racing ahead, expanding our reach and impact like never before.

**About the Role**:
We are looking for a detail-oriented and enthusiastic individual to join our finance team as an Accounting Analyst. This role will encompass various responsibilities, such as:

- Handle day-to-day financial transactions, including data entry of receipts, invoices, and other financial documents.
- Maintain organized and accurate financial records to ensure the integrity of financial data.
- Manage the processing of bills, ensuring accuracy and adherence to payment schedules.
- Reconcile vendor statements and address discrepancies in a timely manner.
- Collaborate with internal stakeholders to resolve payment-related inquiries.
- Assist in the preparation of financial statements by performing reconciliations and ensuring the accuracy of supporting documentation.
- Work closely with the accounting team to compile data and information required for financial reporting.
- Support the implementation of accounting standards and policies to ensure compliance.
- Execute day-to-day accounting activities, including journal entries and month-end close processes.

**Who You Are**:

- Accounting, Finance, or related field graduate with work experience in bookkeeping, accounting, or administrative tasks.
- Accuracy and attention to detail are essential.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
- Proactive mindset with a keen interest in understanding and improving processes.
- Proficient in Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets.

Some nice to haves:

- Experience with QuickBooks Online and familiarity with financial statements.
- Experience or interest in the fintech sector (will need to understand how the whole business works to handle financial records).
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced and dynamic work environment.

**Why You Should be Excited About This Role**:

- Play a significant role in shaping the future of the Canadian fintech industry by ensuring top-notch compliance standards.
- Drive impactful data strategies and initiatives that contribute to the exponential growth of our organization.
- Join an enthusiastic team of professionals dedicated to leaving a lasting mark on the ever-evolving fintech landscape.
- Collaborate with a dedicated team that values innovation, encourages collaboration, and is committed to continual growth and improvement.
- Contribute to the transformation of how businesses perceive and utilize cross-border banking solutions in Canada.

**Why Join Keep?**:

- We're obsessed with investing in data-driven solutions and cutting-edge technologies.
- Be a part of a team that's rewriting the playbook for the Canadian fintech industry.

- Embrace a fully inclusive and remote-friendly company culture that values diversity and work-life balance.
- Help us bring modern banking solutions to businesses, reshaping the banking experience for our customers.

**Why This Might Not Be a Good Fit**:

- If you're a stickler for a highly structured environment with constant hand-holding, you might find our culture of autonomy and trust a bit different.
- If you're more of a slow-and-steady-wins-the-race kind of person, our fast-paced, dynamic environment might be a bit of a rollercoaster.
- Given the nature of our industry and our rapid growth, ambiguity and uncertainty are all part of the ride. If you prefer clear-cut structures or roles, you might find our dynamic environment a bit too adventurous.
- Collaboration is the heartbeat of Keep, and if you prefer to work in your own little bubble without engaging with the wider team, you might find our approach to teamwork a tad unconventional.
