EVORETRO is a fast-growing consumer products company expanding across Canada, the U.S., Europe, and international markets.

As we continue to scale our distribution network, product portfolio, inventory, and international operations, we are looking for a hands-on Director of Finance & Strategic Planning to lead our finance function and help structure the next stage of our growth.

This is not a traditional accounting-only role .

We are looking for a CPA who wants to be close to the business — someone who can understand the numbers, challenge assumptions, improve profitability, protect cash flow, strengthen financial controls, and help management make better decisions.

Reporting closely to the CEO and working with the leadership team, this person will lead and develop our internal finance team and collaborate with banks, accountants, tax specialists, government partners, and other external advisors.

The Role
As Director of Finance & Strategic Planning, you will be a key financial partner to the CEO and leadership team.

You will lead a finance team of approximately three people across accounting, bookkeeping, controllership, and financial analysis.

Your role will be to bring structure, visibility, discipline, and strong financial judgment to a rapidly growing international business.

You will help management answer important questions such as:

Where are we generating the strongest margins?

Where are we losing profitability?

How much inventory should we purchase?

How much working capital do we need?

How do we improve cash flow?

Where should we invest?

Which customers, products, countries, and channels are the most profitable?

What are the financial risks of a current warehouse, 3PL, market, or expansion project?

How should we structure pricing and customer programs?

How should we finance continued growth?

Who We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who combines strong financial fundamentals with commercial judgment.

You should be comfortable moving from a cash‑flow forecast in the morning to a pricing discussion, inventory investment decision, bank meeting, or profitability review later in the day.

You are someone who wants to understand the business behind the numbers.

You challenge assumptions.

You identify financial risks before they become problems.

You help management understand the financial impact of decisions.

And most importantly, you help build the financial discipline required to support sustainable growth.

At EVORETRO, you won’t simply report the numbers.

You will help shape how the company grows.

This role will have a direct impact on:

Inventory investment

Financial controls

You will work closely with the CEO and leadership team and play a meaningful role in strengthening the company’s financial infrastructure as the business continues to scale internationally.

This is an opportunity for a CPA who enjoys being close to operations, commercial decisions, and leadership — while bringing the financial discipline, controls, and strategic insight required by a growing international company.
