COMPANY OVERVIEW KITS is a fast-growing, TSX-listed direct-to-consumer retailer of prescription eyewear, serving customers across Canada and the United States. By combining a seamless digital experience with vertically integrated manufacturing and rapid fulfilment, KITS is redefining how people access vision care, making high-quality eyewear stylish, accessible, and affordable at scale. We move fast, make decisions with data, and build teams that take ownership end to end. As Senior Accountant you will own some of the most technically demanding parts of our monthly close: inventory and cost of goods sold across a vertically integrated optical manufacturer, end-to-end accounting for our retail locations, and Canadian/US tax compliance. You will also help prepare the monthly and quarterly consolidation and support the intercompany process. Reporting to the Financial Controller, you will mentor and develop a team of two staff accountants, guiding their daily work and professional growth. The role suits a designated accountant who wants ownership rather than a piece of a process, is comfortable being the person Operations calls about inventory, and would rather fix a broken reconciliation than run it again next month. Inventory and cost of goods sold Own monthly inventory and cost of goods sold accounting across our major inventory categories, including lens pucks, consumables, and contact lenses inventory held at third-party warehouses. Reconcile perpetual inventory to the general ledger, maintain weighted average costing, and prepare the related adjusting entries. Partner with Operations and our overseas finance team on invoice matching, cost updates, and periodic cycle counts. Retail store accounting Own end-to-end accounting for our retail locations: cash and payment reconciliations, store receivables, sales fees, and merchandise usage. Complete the monthly store cost of goods sold reconciliation. Assist with deferred revenue accounting and the underlying analysis.



Prepare intercompany entries and support the intercompany reconciliation process. Support quarterly reviews and the annual audit with the working papers you own. Tax compliance Prepare and file Canadian tax returns, including GST, PST and QST. Coordinate with third-party service providers on the filing of US sales tax. Review selected balance sheet reconciliations and working papers prepared by other members of the team. Lead a recurring freight cost reconciliation alongside the accounts payable accountant. Drive cycle count process improvement and strengthen the related internal controls. Take on additional technical areas and greater ownership as you ramp. You're a designated accountant who has already run a close, not just contributed to one, and you're ready to own the full breadth of a growing, multi-entity finance function rather than a single slice of it. CPA designation, or in the final stages of the CPA program. ~5-7 years of progressive accounting experience, including full ownership of a month-end close cycle to a fixed deadline. ~ Demonstrated experience in an inventory-heavy environment: weighted average costing, cost of goods sold reconciliation, and tying a perpetual subledger to the general ledger. Inventory is a significant part of this role. ~ Experience with Canadian indirect tax compliance. ~ Advanced Excel, and genuine comfort with large transactional data sets and multi-source reconciliations. ~ Solid written and verbal communication: you will work directly with Operations, our overseas team, and the reporting team, not only with Finance. ~ A process improvement mindset. Power BI or similar reporting tools — building and maintaining models, not only consuming reports. Xero, QuickBooks Online, or comparable cloud finance and AP automation systems. Experience in a public company reporting environment. Competitive compensation with performance-based bonus potential Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits Access to an on-site gym We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. #
