We’re looking for a sharp, tech-savvy Finance Manager / Controller to own our day-to-day finance operations, streamline processes, and help us make data-driven business decisions.

What You’ll Do

• Own Financial Operations : Oversee daily accounting tasks (A / R, A / P, payroll, reconciliations) and monthly / quarterly closes.
• Financial Reporting & Analysis : Prepare accurate financial statements, board reporting packages, and forecasts.
• Strategic Insights : Provide data-driven recommendations on cash flow, cost optimizations, and profitability improvements—be a true business partner to leadership.
• Systems & Automation : Drive digital finance initiatives, select and maintain cloud-based accounting / ERP solutions, automate processes, and champion technology adoption.
• Budgeting & Forecasting : Develop annual budgets, rolling forecasts, and scenario models to support strategic decision-making.
• Compliance & Controls : Ensure compliance with relevant accounting standards (IFRS / GAAP), oversee audits, and maintain strong internal controls.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration : Work closely with product, operations, and technology teams on initiatives that involve financial data, pricing models, and cost benefit analyses.

What We’re Looking For

• Education & Credentials : CPA (preferred) or equivalent professional accounting designation. MBA or CFA a plus.
• Experience Level : 5+ years in accounting / finance roles, with at least 2+ years in a managerial or controllership capacity.
• Tech-Savvy Mindset : Comfortable with cloud-based accounting platforms (e.g., Dynamics 365) and BI / reporting tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau). Bonus if you’ve led ERP implementations or automations.
• Analytical & Strategic : Demonstrated ability to build financial models, interpret complex data, and present actionable insights.
• Strong Communicator : Adept at explaining financial concepts to non-finance colleagues, both verbally and in writing.
• Adaptable & Hands-On : Not afraid to roll up your sleeves and tackle day-to-day tasks while also thinking long-term about scaling finance operations.

Why Join Us?

• Impact : You’ll shape our financial strategy, optimize processes, and collaborate directly with senior leadership.
• Growth Opportunities : We’re expanding fast—this role could quickly evolve into a more senior finance leadership position.
• Tech-Forward Culture : We embrace modern tools and innovation, so you won’t be stuck in outdated spreadsheets.
