Original job description

Financial Controller

LOCATION: Guelph, ON

Our client is a well-established, award-winning construction firm, with active and upcoming projects across the South Western Ontario region. Known for a hands-on, quality-first approach to building and a strong reputation for after-sales service, they're a lean, close-knit organization where every team member has real visibility into the business - not a large corporate environment where you're several layers removed from decisions.

They're looking for a Financial Controller to take ownership of accounting and financial operations across the company, reporting directly to the General Manager. This is a role for someone who wants to lead the finance function but also genuinely enjoys being in the details - from monthly close to construction loan draws to land purchase analysis.

What Our Client Has to Offer

Base salary: $110,000–$150,000
Discretionary annual bonus
Comprehensive benefits package
RRSP matching program
CPA membership dues covered + continuing education
4 weeks vacation
Fully onsite role with direct exposure to ownership and senior leadership
Genuine scope to shape financial processes and controls, not just maintain them

What You'll Do

Own day-to-day accounting operations, including AR, AP, GL, cost accounting, government remittances, inventory accounting, banking, revenue recognition, and payroll
Lead the annual budget process, financial forecasting, and variance analysis
Prepare and publish monthly financial statements
Provide financial analysis and strategic counsel on land and lot purchase opportunities
Build pro-forma statements and cash flow analyses to support new business decisions
Manage daily cash requirements and banking across multiple companies and project accounts
Prepare monthly and long-term cash flow forecasts
Develop detailed construction project budgets and cash flows
Coordinate monthly construction loan funding with lawyers and lenders
Liaise with cost consultants and prepare documentation supporting construction loan draws
Develop, document, and communicate internal control policies and accounting procedures
Manage government reporting requirements and tax filings
Support month-end and year-end close processes
Research technical accounting issues to maintain compliance
Mentor and oversee one direct report

What You Bring

CPA, CGA, CMA, CA designation
5+ years of combined accounting and finance experience in construction
Strong full-cycle accounting knowledge, including budgeting and cost control
Experience with Sage accounting software is preferred
Strong Microsoft Office skills (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage competing deadlines
Confidence interacting with management, ownership, external partners, and staff

This posting is for an open vacancy currently available within our client's organization. Interested and qualified candidates please apply today. We would like to thank all applicants however only those under consideration will be contacted.

To be eligible for this role, you must be legally eligible to work in Canada.
