Hi everyone,

As per job duties below, would you guys classify it on NOC 1311 (B) or 1431 (C)?
In point of view, even though the job title is "Accounting clerk" it fits 80% more on the NOC 1311 (It's also worth mentioning that the company requires more than 3 year of accounting experience)

This position is primarily responsible for performing key accounting functions to support the accurate and timely close of the corporate accounting records for each reporting period.
· Prepare journal entries for day-to-day head office transactions to support a timely and accurate monthly/quarterly/annual accounting close and financial reporting process.
· Prepare general ledger account reconciliations and account analysis for period end close.
· Assist with the management of the accounts payable process to ensure timely payment of invoices to suppliers and expense reports to employees. This includes ensuring that all expense reports and corporate credit card accounts are reconciled to supporting documentation.
· Provide administrative and other support services to finance team, including set-up of payments for treasury transactions and assistance in the reconciliation of bank transactions to supporting documentation.
· File and maintain all supporting documentation for audit/record-keeping purposes.
· Provide support to external and internal stakeholders as requested.

This is a tough one. The differences seem smaller than the similarities, no difference in wage (at the lower end), and even though "job title" isn't supposed to count for much, it may sway a decision toward 1431. If you can get your employer to state that 1311 is a better fit (in the letter of employment), that may help. Consider if any of the last 3 duties under NOC 1311 are appropriate (currently missing).

I'm not sure what else to say, there is a good chance (but far from certain) that the VO will consider this to b NOC 1431.

You guys,

what about these:

Reconciliation of financial entries
Preparation of weekly monitoring reports and sector indicators
Preparation of closing and monitoring reports with Accounting
Monitoring of Client portfolio, as well as their respective collection
Monitoring of aging portfolio
Negotiation with suppliers/costumers

It was the maximum I could get from my ex-employer :confused:


The job title was Financial analyst Jr.
