PURPOSE OF THE POSITION

The Finance Officer is directly responsible for managing the day-to-day financial operations of the Inuvik Housing Authority according to the LHO Financial Administration Manual (NWT Housing Corporation), policies set by the Board of Directors and Management, Partnership Agreements and generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

SCOPE

The Finance Officer position is located in Inuvik and reports to the Executive Manager.

The Inuvik Housing Authority is responsible for the delivery of social housing in Inuvik.

The Finance Officer must ensure that all financial information is properly recorded and kept current. Other related duties as assigned by the Executive Manager.

Failure to successfully complete all tasks could have a dramatic effect on the operations of the Inuvik Housing Authority and could lead to financial mismanagement of the Authority.
