WHAT WILL YOUR NEW ROLE BE?

  • Financial Reporting & Close: Ensure the accuracy, completeness, and timely completion of monthly financial reporting, including detailed variance analysis.

  • Revenue Recognition (IFRS 15) & Project Accounting: Lead the technical accounting for complex software contracts. You will manage Percentage of Completion (POC) schedule, maintain and analyze Work-In-Progress revenue, WIP aging, and ensure compliance with IFRS 15.

  • Contract Review: Partner with the Controller to review new Statements of Work (SOWs) and Amendments. You will help identify non-standard terms (termination clauses, acceptance criteria) that impact revenue timing.

  • Team Leadership: Manage and support members of the finance team, fostering a culture of accuracy and continuous improvement.

  • M&A Support: Assist with due diligence and the integration of new acquisitions into the finance group.

  • Strategic Analysis: Support the Controller in preparing financial analysis to support strategic decision-making and business planning activities.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

  • Experience: 4+ years of experience in an accounting or finance environment.

  • Education: Completed or working towards a CPA designation.

  • Technical Skills: Strong understanding of the IFRS reporting framework, specifically regarding revenue recognition.

  • Excel Proficiency: You are comfortable with complex datasets, lookups, and pivot tables to manage large files.

  • Proactive Investigative Mindset: You have the instinct to dig into the data, identify the root cause of discrepancies, and propose solutions before escalating issues. You don't just flag a variance; you find out why it happened.

  • Soft Skills: Experience building and managing relationships with stakeholders. You can explain complex accounting concepts to non-finance managers.

WHAT WILL MAKE YOU STAND OUT

  • Project Accounting: Experience managing POC revenue and analyzing project profitability.

  • Audit Experience: Experience working at an accounting firm or handling external audits.

  • Curiosity: A drive to understand why the numbers are what they are, not just that they balance.

WHAT WE OFFER

  • 3 weeks' vacation and 5 personal days

  • Comprehensive Medical, Dental and Vision coverage from your first day of employment

  • Employee stock ownership and RRSP matching programs

  • Lifestyle rewards

  • Flexible work options (and a pretty cool Corporate office!)

  • And more!

COMPENSATION DETAILS

The potential salary range for this role is $70,000 to $80,000 per year, with eligibility for bonus or merit program. Final compensation will be based on experience, skills, market conditions, and internal equity. We offer a competitive Total Rewards program including health benefits, RRSP matching, stock option, and career development opportunities.
