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

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.

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.
