Senior Bookkeeper — Canadian Accounts (QuickBooks Online & Desktop)

Progress Group is a Canadian accounting practice building out its bookkeeping operations in Ahmedabad. We're looking for an experienced bookkeeper to take real ownership of a book of Canadian client files and work directly alongside our team in Canada.

This is a senior seat, not a data-entry role. You'll be trusted to run files independently, prepare returns, and review the work of others.

What you'll do

- Handle full-cycle bookkeeping for Canadian clients in QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop
- Prepare and file GST/HST returns
- Prepare financial statements for review by our Canadian accounting team
- Review work prepared by junior team members and act as the escalation point on files
- Complete bank, credit card, and intercompany reconciliations
- Work directly with our Canada-based team during overlapping hours

What we're looking for

- 2+ years of bookkeeping experience with demonstrated ability to run client files independently
- Hands-on experience in both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop
- Direct experience with Canadian bookkeeping — Canadian chart of accounts, CRA compliance, and GST/HST
- Experience preparing financial statements to handoff standard
- Robust written and spoken English
- Ability to reliably work a 2:00 PM – 11:00 PM IST shift
- Based in Ahmedabad, or willing to relocate

Nice to have

- QuickBooks ProAdvisor certification




- Prior experience at a Canadian accounting firm, or at an outsourcing provider serving Canadian clients
- Exposure to Canadian payroll

The shift, stated plainly

Our working hours are 2:00 PM to 11:00 PM IST so that you overlap with our Canadian team through their business day. This is a genuine requirement of the role, not a preference. Please only apply if this schedule works for you long-term.

What we offer

- ₹50,000 – ₹70,000 per month, with the upper end available for candidates with strong Canadian domain experience
- Direct working relationship with a Canadian practice, not an anonymous outsourcing pool
- Real ownership of client files and scope to grow into a review and supervisory role

Pay: ₹50,000.00 - ₹70,000.00 per month

Benefits:

- Internet reimbursement
- Leave encashment
- Paid sick time
- Paid time off

Application Question(s):

- Our working hours are 2:00 PM to 11:00 PM IST, Monday to Friday, to overlap with our Canadian team. Are you able to commit to this schedule long-term?
- Have you worked directly on Canadian client files (Canadian chart of accounts, CRA compliance, or GST/HST)?
