Correct NOC Code for Accounts Payable job

[ajh89]

Hi there,
I am looking at applying for CEC Express Entry. One of the jobs I did for 6 months last year was titled "Accounts Payable". I have received a signed reference letter from my ex-manager confirming my duties:

"This letter is to confirm that Alex was employed in an Accounts Payable position from August 1, 2020 to January 15, 2021. He reported directly to me throughout this time. In his role, he did the following duties:

• Examined and verified the accuracy of employee expenses and other transactions ready for payment and authorized routine EFT and cheque weekly payments
• Co-ordinated, verified and reviewed mileage log documents from company administrators across the company
• Reviewed and verified accuracy of invoices from suppliers and entered transactions on invoice and payment journals as required
• Co-ordinated with other departments; created and submitted progress and other reports
• Provided training and created documents for workers in job tasks and duties
• Performed other related duties as required"

My question is, what NOC code should I use? I am looking at the following 2 options:
https://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p3VD.pl?Function=getVD&TVD=122372&CVD=122376&CPV=1431&CST=01012011&MLV=4&CLV=4

My job duties seem to be more similar to NOC code 1212, but the title of "Accounts Payable" is listed under NOC Code 1431. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

You have to make sure that the JD in the work reference letter substantially match the JDs of the NOC selected and also the lead statement. Here substantial means 75% or more. This is they key to finding correct NOC.
