Accounting Manager – dynamic, entrepreneurial small business

Base pay range: CA$80,000.00 – CA$100,000.00 per year.

Overview

Recruiting for mid‑senior finance/accounting professionals in Vancouver and surrounding area. Our client is a well-established Canadian business with over 30 years of success and a reputation for consistent growth. They are now seeking an Accounting Manager with strong accounting expertise to help scale the organization to its next stage.

This role is best suited for someone who thrives in a fast‑paced, dynamic, and collaborative environment. You will apply your accounting knowledge, take ownership, work cross‑functionally with a lean team and directly impact the business. The position is primarily on‑site, with some flexibility available after a successful onboarding period.

Responsibilities

Keep finance operations running smoothly and grow the organization. Reporting to the CEO, you will take ownership of day‑to‑day accounting, ensure accurate records, manage payments and keep NetSuite up‑to‑date as the single source of truth. You will also work closely with the fractional CFO on budgeting, quarterly reviews and year‑end compliance.

You will deliver a clean and timely month‑end close, produce reliable financial reports, and keep cash flow steady. You’ll oversee AR/AP with their outsourced team, review reconciliations, manage vendor terms and file GST/PST. You’ll also work alongside Operations to streamline processes and use NetSuite for reporting and insights. Within the first few months, success looks like smooth closes, a standard reporting package and a well‑organized payment process.

Requirements

• 6–8+ years of progressive accounting experience with full month‑end close in small/mid‑size companies
• Exposure to distribution or supply‑chain environments, including freight accruals and claims
• Strong knowledge of ASPE/Canadian GAAP plus hands‑on GST/PST and statutory compliance experience
• Strong knowledge of inventory, landed cost, COGS, 3PL/freight invoices, and USD/CAD FX accounting
• Proven track record managing outsourced bookkeeping or shared service providers

• Process‑oriented mindset with experience creating SOPs, checklists, and improving internal controls
• Experience working with NetSuite and preferably at an administrator level
• Experience with process and system improvement projects
• Strong communication, ownership, and problem‑solving skills; reliable under deadlines
