Ownership over finance and accounting for Canadian operations for a stable, well-established organization with international resources and backing
Significant exposure to executive and operational leadership with opportunity to drive process improvements and financial strategy
Ideal next step for a high-performing Assistant Controller or Accounting Manager and offers platform for long-term career growth and advancement

This role is particularly well-suited for:

Experienced Controllers ready for more growth and team leadership
Assistant Controllers seeking broader leadership responsibility
Construction accounting professionals with WIP expertise
Manufacturing accounting leaders with strong cost accounting experience
Project accounting professionals looking to move into business leadership

Responsibilities

Lead and develop the Canadian accounting team
Manage month-end and year-end financial close processes
Oversee budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting
Drive project costing, job cost analysis, and profitability reporting

Partner with operational leaders to improve financial performance and decision-making

Requirements

Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Accounting or Finance

Expertise in WIP accounting, project accounting, cost accounting or job costing
Proven ability to lead and develop accounting staff
Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution

Please Note: This opportunity is with a client of Forvis Mazars and is not a position with Forvis Mazars directly.

All candidate inquiries and discussions will be held in strict confidence.
