You report directly to the leader of the Kitchener accounting function, work shoulder-to-shoulder with a US-based corporate controller, and step into a team where people build entire careers.COMPANYGlobal technology manufacturerRoughly 1,050 employees globally across 17+ locations; the business operates multi-entity, multi-currency, and multi-regionPrivately held and wholly owned by a publicly traded parent company based in Japan; the Kitchener entity's reporting rolls up into that parent's consolidated public reportingComing off a strong commercial pivot: a multi-year defence-sector contract (military flight-simulation environments) now sits alongside the company's established cinema and entertainment business, with secured work for the next five yearsPACKAGEBase salary$85,000 to $95,000Defined-contribution pension planwith employer match up to 4%Group benefits : blended health and dental, travel insurance, and short-term disability4 weeks vacation, plus a paid holiday shutdown and a paid birthday day off -roughly four and a half weeks off in totalGenuine work-life balance : a normal work week, with only modest extra hours around month, quarter,
