Our nonprofit consultancy/ association management company is looking for a freelance PT admin person. MUST BE FLUENT in FRENCH and located in the Ottawa/Gatineau region!

Hello,

We're a boutique Gatineau association management company breaking onto the scenes and we are looking to partner with a start up or immediate level bookkeeper to possibly work with and help us bid on opportunities with non-profits and associations we are looking to take on. To assist us in keeping up with our own growth plans and serve their members' needs, we require capabilities that could include:

* Bilingualism in French and English
* A strong preference towards experience or at least an understanding of nonprofits and associations
* A solid background in bookkeeping or accounting
* A preference for professional certification or accreditation by a bookkeeping or accounting association

To be considered, you MUST be fluent in French and English. In addition, experience supporting and/or working with nonprofit organizations and/or associations would be a definite plus.

Please only respond to this opportunity if you are in the National Capital Region. Only individual bookkeepers (not companies) will be invited to a meeting. We are not looking to partner with a business of several associates or employees themselves.

Please understand that at this point, there isn't a guarantee of work nor is this an employment opportunity. We view this opportunity as ideal for a bookkeeper just looking to pick up a few extra billable hours or even a start up bookkeeper.

We look forward to learning about you!
