Our customers include major sports organizations such as Maple Leafs Sports & Entertainment, the Calgary Flames, and the Buffalo Bills. Our Canadian operations run from our office in Fort Erie, Ontario, working hand-in-hand with our head office in Garland, Texas.The RoleWe are hiring an Accountant (CPA) to manage the books and the day-to-day operations of our Canadian office in Fort Erie — a senior, accounting-led role with a light set of office-management duties on top. You will own the Canadian entity's books, handle Canadian tax and payroll remittances, and be our on-the-ground financial contact for "all things Canada," reporting to AmpThink's CFO in Garland, Texas. Because AmpThink's work is building the technology inside major sports and entertainment venues, the numbers you keep sit behind real projects at real venues.This is a genuinely cross-border opportunity. You will maintain a Canadian set of books that reports up to a U.S. parent — reconciling intercompany activity, working in both CAD and USD, and bridging Canadian requirements (GST/HST and CRA payroll remittances) with U.S. head-office processes. If you enjoy operating at the intersection of two countries' accounting and tax systems, this role offers that variety every day.AmpThink's Canadian Practice lead is based here in Fort Erie but travels frequently,
so day to day you will often be the on-site presence keeping the office and the books running — with the Practice lead and our U.S. finance team a call away. This is an on-site role well suited to someone in the Niagara region who wants a stable seat close to home, without the daily commute to Toronto.The ideal candidate is a designated CPA (Chartered Professional Accountant) with strong, current accounting skills who is happy to wear a few hats in a small-office setting. If you have construction or project-based accounting experience, even better — it maps directly to how AmpThink runs its venue projects.This is a newly created position.What You Will DoOwn the full cycle of accounting for the Canadian entity — accounts payable and receivable, bank and general-ledger reconciliations, and journal entries — and support month-end and year-end close with clean, organized recordsAssist with US bookkeeping and accounting in partnership with the CFO as time allowsPrepare and remit Canadian GST/HST and payroll source deductions to the CRA, or coordinate them with head office and external advisorsWork across the border with head office in Garland, Texas — reconcile intercompany activity, handle CAD/USD transactions, and keep U.S. leadership current on Canadian financial mattersTrack recurring charges, review and code incoming bills, and route them to the right approversHelp schedule field resources and track their time, attendance, and expenses in AmpThink's Zoho toolsKeep the small Fort Erie office running — mail, supplies, vendors, filing, and recordsOccasionally receive materials at the loading dock — sign for deliveries, move items with a manual pallet jack,
