• Maintain internal control frameworks (NI 52-109 / SOX equivalent) across corporate and site operations, serving as a primary liaison for external auditors.
• Partner with operational and site finance teams to analyze financial performance, explaining variance drivers across mine sites, commodity impact, and capital expenditures to key executive stakeholders.
• Lead research and practical application of emerging IFRS standards impact-specific to the mining industry (e.g., IFRS 6, IAS 36 impairment testing, IAS 37 provisions).
• Re-engineer reporting workflows, streamline month-end close processes, and leverage ERP/EPM tools to drive automation and eliminate manual errors.
• Facilitate initiatives with site accounting, legal, investor relations, and operational teams to drive accountability and hit critical project milestones.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Commerce, Business Administration, Accounting, or Finance.
• CPA designation is required.
• 5+ years of progressive financial reporting and analysis experience; direct exposure to the mining, metals, or natural resources sector (public company environment) is strongly preferred.

• Advanced Excel capabilities and hands-on experience with enterprise financial software and consolidation systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Hyperion, OneStream).
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills, with a demonstrated ability to translate complex financial and technical concepts to non-finance operational partners.
