About us
Inquiring Little Minds (ILM) was founded in September 2011. The Saltair Childcare Society (SCS) and ILM work together in a private-public partnership (a long-term arrangement between a government institution and a private sector institution). We also work in partnerships with the City of Port Alberni, Cowichan Valley School District, Nanaimo Ladysmith Public Schools, and Saltair Community Society.
ILM facilities are dedicated to the provision of safe, well-managed childcare services for children that are provided by full and part-time, qualified staff. ILM's goal is to stimulate emotional growth, independent growth, intellectual growth, physical growth, and social growth amongst its charges.
We are in pursuit of someone who is not only a great bookkeeper, but the candidate will need to have a great work ethic and a can-do attitude. The right person should be extremely comfortable maintaining high standards in the full-cycle bookkeeping responsibilities for a client list of multiple accounts and help to support other team members in doing the same.
This dynamic position requires someone who is highly organized and confident in making decisions on their own. The day-to-day bookkeeping duties are an obvious must for such a position, however building and maintaining relationships amongst clients while managing priorities and deadlines are the keys to success.
While the candidate will have a great deal of support available to them, this position enjoys a good deal of autonomy in self management.
NOTE: Candidate must be based in the Nanaimo area.
Unfortunately, workers not in possession of a current valid work permit, or who only have a Student Visa cannot be considered for this role.
