• Spot bottlenecks and create scalable accounting workflows that can support fast business expansion.
• Drive automation and AI-enabled enhancements to improve speed, accuracy, and efficiency in finance processes.

• Serve as the main point of contact for external auditors, including documentation preparation, coordination, and follow-through on audit requests.
• Partner with internal stakeholders across functions to improve financial visibility and support business decisions.

• Strong progressive accounting background of 5 to 8+ years, with CPA or an equivalent qualification preferred.
• Hands-on experience managing accounting activities across multiple entities and regions, especially North America, EMEA, and/or APAC.
• Deep knowledge of full-cycle accounting, reporting, and consolidation procedures.
• Prior leadership experience with remote or distributed accounting teams, ideally for 3+ years or more.
• Proven ability to create and scale accounting processes in lean, fast-growing environments.
• Advanced Excel capability and solid ERP experience; familiarity with Workday Financials is a strong advantage.
• Effective leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills in a global environment.
• Analytical and improvement-oriented mindset with interest in automation and innovation.

Compensation and benefits

• Salary range of CAD 120,000 to CAD 165,000.
• Performance-linked incentives based on company and individual contribution.
• Flexible work setup with remote-first options.
• Medical, dental, and wellness coverage.
• Paid vacation time and supportive leave provisions.
• Opportunity to shape and expand global accounting operations in a high-growth setting.
• Exposure to modern finance tools, automation, and AI-supported accounting workflows.
