• Experience in the cannabis industry, CPG, retail, or manufacturing is highly preferred.
• Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills; proficiency in ERP systems (e.g., Sage, NetSuite, SAP) and BI tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Adaptive).
• Strong understanding of IFRS and public company reporting standards.
• Exceptional attention to detail, analytical thinking, and communication skills.
