Job description:

Markham, ON - 5 days per week On-site
up to $85k base p/a
Profit sharing program
Full benefits
A well-established, profitable Canadian manufacturer with over 50 years in business is looking for a reliable, detail-driven accounting professional to join a tight-knit Markham office. Part of a larger, well-resourced corporate group, this company punches above its weight in terms of the support, infrastructure, and finance expertise available to whoever sits in this seat. This is a role with real ownership, real variety, and the kind of stability that is increasingly hard to find.
THE CULTURE:
This is a 10-person office (100 total with plant) inside a company that has been operating for over 50 years. People here do not job-hop. The environment is collaborative, friendly, and built on genuine relationships. You will have your own private office, the active support of a knowledgeable finance team, and a GM who is present and accessible day-to-day. The companys values are not a poster on the wall. They show up in how people treat each other every day: be persistent, be respectful, be informed, be dependable, and always be looking for excellence.
WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING:
Accounting and Reporting
Own month-end close including journal entries, accruals, balance sheet reconciliations, and financial statement preparation
Perform variance analysis on key expense and revenue lines versus prior month and prior year and present findings to management
Prepare monthly management reporting packages
Maintain fixed asset schedules and support annual budget preparation and tracking




Coordinate external audit documentation and support consolidated reporting requirements
Payroll and Compliance
Process bi-weekly payroll for approximately 100 employees using Pay Works, full training provided
Manage CRA remittances, ROEs, T4s, WSIB, EHT, and year-end payroll compliance
Prepare and file monthly GST/HST returns
Administer group advantages including enrolments, updates, and RRSP reporting
AP, AR and Bookkeeping
Manage full-cycle AP and AR including vendor relations, invoice coding, collections, and credit notes
Monitor bank balances and flag cash flow concerns proactively
Prepare bookkeeping for the related holding company
Assist with the planned transition to Microsoft Dynamics Business Central
Qualifications:

5 + years of hands-on full cycle accounting and reporting experience
Post-secondary education in accounting, finance, or a related field
Experience with Quick Books Online or a comparable accounting system
Payroll platform experience (Pay Works knowledge is an asset; similar platforms considered)
Strong Excel skills and comfort with the MS Office suite
Someone who works independently, stays on top of things without being reminded,



and has the confidence to flag something that does not look right
A communicator who is clear, professional, and easy to work with across all levels of the organization
Someone who genuinely takes pride in accuracy and getting things done the right way
Why is This a Great Opportunity:

1. Standalone ownership with a full team behind you
You are the accounting lead on the ground in Markham, but you are never on your own. A full finance team at the parent company, including a Controller and Assistant Controller, is actively available to support, guide, and collaborate. You get the autonomy of a standalone role with the safety net of a much larger organization.
2. A company that actually looks after its people
Profit sharing, full benefits, tuition reimbursement, and a culture where people stay for decades. This is not a revolving door. People build careers here and the companys track record backs that up, including one of their top five revenue years ever in a challenging market year.
3. Room to grow if you want it
Do great work here and doors open. The parent company is actively growing and has a track record of recognizing talent across the group. For the right person, this is a starting point, not a ceiling.
