Join a rapidly expanding, multi-site organization at a pivotal stage of growth. My client is seeking a hands‑on, forward‑thinking Controller who is energized by transformation, thrives in quick‑paced environments, and wants to leave a lasting mark on a scaling business.

You’ll step into a high‑visibility position where you’ll take ownership of strengthening the financial foundation: cleaning and optimizing existing records, implementing scalable systems, and establishing best‑in‑class processes. Just as importantly, you’ll play a key role in building and mentoring a high‑performing accounting team that can support continued expansion.

Working directly with the VP of Finance, you’ll be a trusted partner in driving strategic initiatives, improving financial visibility, and enabling smarter, faster decision‑making across the organization.

If you’re someone who enjoys rolling up your sleeves, solving complex challenges, and building structure where it’s needed most — while positioning yourself for meaningful career progression — this is a rare opportunity to do exactly that.

Responsibilities
Reorganize and strengthen financial records while implementing robust,



scalable accounting processes.
Navigate ambiguity with discretion, driving independent improvements across the accounting function.
Oversee and support the transition to new ERP and expense management systems.
Build and develop the accounting team, proactively identifying and recommending future hiring needs in line with company growth.
Establish and uphold robust financial controls, ensuring full compliance with applicable accounting standards.
Support balance sheet remediation efforts and lead or contribute to special projects as required.

Qualifications
6+ years of progressive accounting experience. At least 2+ years in a Controller role, or Assistant Controller/Accounting Manager ready for that next step.
CPA designation is preferred.
Experience in a multi‑site environment with a robust understanding of intercompany transactions.
Strong work ethic and capability to work independently.
Proficiency with QuickBooks and NetSuite is an asset.

To be eligible for this role, you must be legally eligible to work in Canada.
