Manage external audit and review processes, ensuring readiness, strong coordination, and timely completion.
Lead and develop the accounting team, fostering accountability, collaboration, and high performance across the finance function.
Oversee treasury management, including cash management, cash flow forecasting, capital planning, and banking relationships.
Provide oversight of payroll, tax, and regulatory compliance, ensuring accurate filings, remittances, and adherence to applicable requirements.
Oversee equity plan administration in partnership with the People Operations team, ensuring effective and accurate execution.
Establish and maintain an effective internal control environment to safeguard company assets, support operational integrity, and strengthen finance discipline.
Lead core accounting operations, accounts payable and supplier costing, while redesigning processes to improve accuracy, efficiency, and process consistency.
Drive the modernization of finance systems, processes, and workflows, identifying opportunities to automate, streamline, and use AI-enabled workflows to improve efficiency and strengthen financial insights.
Support strategic finance initiatives and deliver ad hoc analysis to support and inform leadership decision-making.
REQUIREMENTS
CPA designation required
10+ years of progressive experience in controllership, accounting, or finance leadership, including several years in a leadership role
Strong knowledge of Canadian accounting standards (ASPE or IFRS) and Canadian tax regulations
Experience leading the close process, strengthening internal controls, and delivering management reporting in a complex or growing environment
Experience with treasury management, cash flow forecasting, and liquidity planning
Demonstrated success transforming finance processes, implementing or optimizing systems, and building scalable ways of working
