Job description

Financial Controller | A role for long-term establishment

Not all controller positions necessarily have to be a turnaround mandate or a complete transformation.

Sometimes, what we are looking for is simply a solid company, a team you can rely on, an accessible manager, and a role in which you can invest for several years.

This is precisely the type of opportunity we wish to present here.

We are assisting a well-established Quebec company in recruiting its next financial controller. You will join a cohesive and autonomous accounting team, in an organization where human relationships, collaboration, and stability hold significant importance.

What distinguishes the role

You will have enough autonomy to take your place while having a structure and a team already present around you.

The daily routine combines financial accounting, analysis, proximity to operations, and support for the team. Therefore, you will be able to maintain a comprehensive view of finances rather than being limited to just one portion of the function.

The organization also places a strong emphasis on internal progression and wishes to offer perspectives to individuals who want to evolve with it.

Specifically, you will be responsible for:

• producing and analyzing monthly financial information;
• monitoring budgets, cash flow, and the organization's results;
• analyzing production costs and profitability;
• ensuring the follow-up of inventories, fixed assets, and internal controls;
• supervising the main accounting cycles;
• preparing the necessary files for year-end work;
• supporting and assisting the accounting team;
• contributing to process improvements and automations already initiated;
• acting as a financial partner to management and operations.

Manufacturing experience, CPA, team management, cost accounting, use of an ERP, and functional English are assets, but some of these criteria may be flexible depending on your overall experience.

What the environment offers you

• A permanent position within an established Quebec company;
• An autonomous and collaborative accounting team;
• An accessible management;
• Two days of remote work per week;
• Flexibility in organizing your schedule;
• Collective insurance;
• A retirement savings plan with employer contribution;
• Vacation that can be adapted according to your experience;
• Health and wellness benefits;
• Long-term advancement opportunities.
