Original job description

Our client is seeking an experienced, hands-on accounting professional to join its established finance team as Assistant Controller. This is an excellent opportunity for an accounting leader who enjoys being involved in the details while contributing to financial reporting, process improvements and the development of accounting team members.

The successful candidate will play an integral role in overseeing month-end and year-end close processes, maintaining the integrity of financial records, strengthening internal controls and delivering accurate and timely financial reporting.

This role requires strong technical accounting capabilities, advanced Excel and data analytics skills, exceptional reconciliation experience and practical working knowledge of Oracle Fusion.

Key Responsibilities

Financial Reporting & Accounting

Lead monthly, quarterly and annual financial close processes, ensuring accuracy and adherence to established deadlines.
Prepare and review journal entries, including accruals, depreciation and allocation transactions.
Review the general ledger and trial balance, investigating and explaining material variances.
Prepare and review monthly financial statements and management reporting packages.
Support budgeting, forecasting and budget-to-actual variance analysis.
Develop and maintain Excel-based financial models and reporting tools to support business decisions.

Reconciliations & Internal Controls

Oversee balance sheet reconciliations, including bank, accounts receivable, accounts payable, fixed assets and accruals.
Ensure general ledger accounts are reconciled to supporting subledgers and discrepancies are resolved promptly.
Establish reconciliation standards, review supporting documentation and monitor outstanding reconciling items.
Maintain effective internal controls, segregation of duties and accounting policies.

Systems & Process Improvement

Identify opportunities to streamline accounting processes, improve efficiencies and automate reporting.
Support system enhancements, quarterly updates, testing and user assistance.
Leverage advanced Excel and data analytics to improve financial reporting and operational insights.

Audit & Compliance

Coordinate year-end audit and/or review engagements, including preparation of working papers and supporting schedules.
Liaise with external auditors and respond to audit requests.
Support corporate tax filings, sales tax returns and government remittances.
Ensure compliance with applicable accounting standards and Canadian regulatory requirements.

Team Leadership

Supervise, mentor and develop accounting team members.
Assign and review work, establish priorities and ensure deadlines are consistently achieved.
Foster a collaborative, accountable and service-oriented team environment.

Qualifications & Experience

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Commerce or a related discipline.
CPA designation or actively pursuing completion.
Minimum six years of progressive accounting experience, including at least two years in a supervisory capacity.
Strong knowledge of IFRS and/or ASPE and Canadian tax requirements, including GST/HST and payroll remittances.
Demonstrated experience managing month-end and year-end close processes and preparing audit working papers.
Advanced Excel skills, including financial modelling, reporting and data analysis.
Strong working knowledge of Oracle Fusion is mandatory.
Exceptional account reconciliation skills and a strong understanding of general ledger and subledger processes.
Proven process improvement capabilities and the ability to identify opportunities for greater efficiency.
Strong analytical, organizational and problem-solving skills.
A hands-on approach with the ability to balance technical accounting responsibilities with team leadership.

The Ideal Candidate

You are a technically strong accounting professional who takes ownership, enjoys improving processes and understands the importance of accurate and timely financial reporting. You are equally comfortable working through complex reconciliations, analyzing financial results, supporting systems improvements and developing team members.

You bring a proactive mindset, attention to detail and the ability to work collaboratively with finance leadership and other stakeholders.
