Job description

Join Blue Ridge Mountain EMC as a Full-Time Accounting Clerk and become part of a team that supports the financial operations of a member-owned electric cooperative.

YOUR ROLE AS AN ACCOUNTING CLERK

Working under the direction of the Supervisor of Accounting, this position assists with processing accounts payable transactions, maintaining utility plant and fixed asset records, and preparing documentation for financial reporting and the annual audit.
Success in this role requires strong attention to detail, sound organizational skills, and the ability to work accurately with financial information.
