Job description

*Equity + Upward Mobility | Total Life — Voted Best in Business by Inc. Magazine

About Total Life
Total Life is on a mission to transform mental health for older adults across North America. As the nation’s leading teletherapy platform for aging well, we’ve already served tens of thousands of sessions and been named Best in Business by Inc. Magazine. We’re growing fast — and we’re looking for someone exceptional to grow with us.

The Role
We’re looking for a Finance & Strategy Manager who’s passionate about our mission and ready to roll up their sleeves to help build a world-class company. This is not your average finance role — you’ll be embedded in the heartbeat of the business, working cross-functionally with the CEO, operations, product, and growth to drive smarter decisions, manage multiple entities, and lay the financial foundation for scale.

You’ll own and evolve everything from accounting and tax filings to forecasting and financial storytelling. You’ll get real equity, real responsibility, and a real shot at growing into a senior leadership role as we scale.

What You’ll Do

• Manage books, tax compliance, and filings across multiple Canadian and US entities
• Own financial reporting, forecasting, and board/investor reporting
• Build and maintain models in Excel and dashboards in Power BI
• Oversee budgeting, cash flow management, and scenario planning
• Set up internal systems to manage spend, vendor relationships, and legal paperwork
• Collaborate on strategic planning, pricing decisions, and expansion
• Work directly with leadership on high-impact projects across departments
• Support future fundraising rounds with clean data and clear insights

Who You Are

• You love the mental health, longevity, and wellness space
• Incredibly curious — you want to learn every part of the business
• Highly proficient in Excel and Power BI — you turn chaos into clarity
• You must have strong experience with a top firm in accounting, forecasting, tax, and entity management
• You thrive in startups — low ego, high hustle, and big picture thinking
• Strong communicator who can translate numbers into narratives
• Experience as a controller and/or CPA
• Bonus: experience in cross-border finance (US + Canada)

Why Join Us

• Work with a mission-driven team changing lives
• Equity + compensation that grows with you
• Upward mobility — this role can evolve into Director or VP
• Direct access to visionary leadership and meaningful mentorship
• A chance to build something that matters — and have fun doing it

Location: Remote
Salary: $70,000-$75,000 CAD
