This role will support a broad range of finance and accounting functions, including financial reporting, general ledger accounting, budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, grant and revenue reporting, reconciliations, internal controls, audit support, and month-end/year-end close activities.

This is not solely an FP&A-focused position.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare and support monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting.


• Prepare financial statements, supporting schedules, and financial statement notes.


• Perform general ledger account reconciliations and investigate discrepancies.


• Prepare and process journal entries.


• Analyze financial statement variances and identify the underlying causes.


• Perform balance sheet, cash flow, net debt, and accumulated surplus analysis.


• Support month‑end and year‑end financial close activities.


• Reconcile revenue accounts and restricted funding receipts.


• Assist with operating and restricted‑fund accounting.


• Prepare variance analyses and complex financial reports.


• Support grant and restricted‑fund reporting.


• Monitor deferred revenue and grant balances, including expiring funding.


• Assist with fixed‑asset and capital‑revenue accounting.


• Support payroll, banking, and balance‑sheet account reconciliations.


• Support subledger interfaces, billings, and remittances.


• Assist with internal and external audit requests.


• Prepare supporting schedules, worksheets, reconciliations, and documentation for auditors.


• Support Chart of Accounts maintenance.


• Assist with time‑sensitive financial reporting and regulatory reporting deliverables.


• Ensure financial information is accurate, complete, and compliant with applicable accounting standards and organizational policies.


• Work collaboratively with finance teams and stakeholders to resolve accounting and reporting issues.


• Manage multiple priorities while meeting strict reporting deadlines.

Required Qualifications & Experience

• Minimum 5 years of progressive financial/accounting experience.


• CPA designation or actively pursuing CPA designation.


• Strong background in financial accounting and financial reporting.


• Experience analyzing financial statements and financial data.


• Strong General Ledger (GL) and account reconciliation experience.


• Hands‑on experience with month‑end and year‑end close.


• Experience preparing and processing journal entries.


• Strong variance analysis and financial analysis skills.


• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel.


• Experience working with financial systems and database applications in a large or complex organization.


• Ability to prepare complex financial reports, reconciliations, and analyses.


• Ability to work independently with limited supervision.


• Ability to manage multiple assignments and meet tight, time‑sensitive deadlines.


• Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and decision‑making skills.


• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

Preference will be given to candidates with experience in one or more of the following:

• Public Sector Accounting Standards (PSAS).


• Canadian public‑sector accounting.


• Healthcare finance or accounting.


• Provincial government or public‑sector organizations.


• Grant accounting and reporting.


• Restricted‑fund accounting.


• External audit support.


• Financial statement preparation.


• Deferred revenue accounting.

• Strong deadline management and organizational skills.


• Professional written and verbal communication.
