Hi, you're NOC should match the opening statement of the NOC "Accountants plan, organize and administer accounting systems for individuals and establishments" and at least 60-70% of the job duties.

Also check out this NOC 1311 Accounting technicians and bookkeepers. Do you also do the taxation of the company?

Thanks for the response, however, you can see Iam covering more responsibilities than mentioned in the NOC website as an accountant.

No, I don't involve in corporate taxation.

Secondly, I think 1311 is a Junior level position with no requirement of University degree under education requirement. On the other hand, I have university degree in commerce and nearly 4 years of experience as an accountant. Do you still suggest I choose 1311 ?

Thanks,

This looks closest to NOC 1111.
Couple of suggestions
1) Under Handling Inventory- You can expand on that point further by mentioning what you do specifically. under NOC it states 'Examines Financial Accounts'. So if you are preparing count sheets or explaining variances in inventory then you can mention that.
2) Under Coordination of Audit process- You can expand on that as well mentioning they types of audit testing you do or the types of audit reports you prepare.
Sounding too generic can be a slight risk. Expanding on the points you have mentioned can only be an advantage

Your duties are closely aligned with 1111. You chose the correct NOC in my opinion. You are not a bookkeeper by any means..more of audit compliance and cost functionality.

Yes, it is counted as relevant experience under NOC 1111. I used my articleship experience of 3 years for applying.
