Accountant
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Nov 10, 2026. First seen by Alion on Nov 10, 2026. Dominion Dynamics scores B on the Alion truth index.
Location: Ottawa Office, On-Site
Reports to: Head of Finance
Type: Full-Time
The Role
Dominion Dynamics builds sovereign defence capability for Canada, and the company is scaling fast. That only works if the finance engine underneath runs cleanly: suppliers paid on time, no invoices missing, and everyone paid correctly, every cycle. You keep that engine running so the people building for the field never have to think about it.
This is the core accounting seat on a small finance team. You run payroll, AP, AR and expenses day to day, close the books each month, and push to automate the manual work out of all of it. It suits someone early in their accounting career who wants to grow with the role, not someone looking to settle into a fixed scope.
What You'll Do
Own payroll end to end. Every pay run, change and question comes to you, and people are paid correctly and on time.
Run accounts payable so suppliers are paid on schedule and no invoice slips through.
Manage accounts receivable and invoicing, keeping the ledger current.
Process and review employee expenses and receipts, chasing what's missing before it becomes a month-end problem.
Drive month-end close: post transactions, complete all account reconciliations and prepare financial statements for the Head of Finance.
Build automations across finance workflows, replacing manual steps with systems that scale as the company grows.
What You Bring
2+ years of hands-on accounting experience across payroll, AP and AR.
Experience running month-end close, including account reconciliations and preparing financial statements.
Canadian payroll experience, including source deductions and remittances.
A drive to automate. You see repetitive work and want to build it out of the process.
The hustle to get in, figure things out and take on more as the team grows.
Nice to Have
Experience in the defence sector, such as accounting for government contracts or working at a defence or aerospace company
No defence background required.
We've hired people who didn't tick every box. If this is the work you want to do, please apply anyway.
