The team includes experienced finance professionals, including CPAs, CFAs, and former senior operators, and has supported more than 160 clients in securing over $650M in funding. Headquartered in Calgary with team members across Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec, Asgard serves clients across Canada and works as an extension of their management teams.

The Role

We are hiring a Junior Finance Advisor to work alongside our senior advisory team on live client files. You will build financial models, prepare lender submissions and credit memos, support buyer-side due diligence, and help clients access the funding programs they qualify for. This is a seat with real transaction exposure from day one, not a back-office analyst role.

You’ll Thrive Here If You...

• Enjoy working on several live files at once without losing the details.
• Are genuinely curious about how businesses make money across very different industries.
• Like building a model from a messy set of statements and making it defensible.
• Communicate clearly in writing, because our work product is read by lenders and boards.
• Want to learn deal structuring from people who do it every day.

What You'll Do

Financial Analysis and Modelling

• Build and maintain operating models, forecasts, and cash flow projections.
• Normalize and analyze client financial statements; calculate and stress-test DSCR, EBITDA, and working capital positions.
• Run sensitivity and scenario analysis to support financing and acquisition decisions.

Lender and Capital Work

• Draft financing memos, credit summaries, and supporting schedules for bank, BDC, and private credit submissions.
• Prepare and track applications for non-dilutive funding, including SR&ED, IRAP, and federal and provincial grant programs.
• Coordinate information requests between clients and lenders and keep files moving.

Transaction Support

• Support buyer-side due diligence, including quality of earnings review, data room organization, and issue tracking.
• Assist with valuation analysis, deal structuring, and letters of intent.

Client and File Management

• Prepare client-ready deliverables that are accurate, well-formatted, and complete on the first pass.
• Maintain organized file records, track deadlines and deliverables, and follow up on outstanding items.

What You Bring

• A degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a related field.
• Advanced Excel skills, including the ability to build a model from a blank sheet.
• Strong written communication and attention to detail. Our documents go to credit committees.
• Sound judgment and discretion with confidential client information.
• The ability to manage competing deadlines across multiple client files.

Considered an Asset

• CPA designation, or CPA in progress.
• CFA designation, or CFA in progress.
• Relevant banking or commercial lending experience, particularly in credit adjudication or business banking.
• Exposure to Canadian lending programs such as CSBFP, BDC, EDC, FCC, or AFSC.
• Experience with SR&ED claims, or familiarity with QuickBooks, Sage, or similar accounting platforms.

Why Asgard

• Direct exposure to transactions ranging from $500K to $25M+ across multiple industries.
• Compensation that scales with the work. Every closed file you contribute to is reflected in your bonus.
• Mentorship from CPAs and CFAs on staff, with support toward your designation.
• Health, dental, and vision benefits after 90 days.
• A defined path from junior advisory into senior transaction work.
• Balanced flexibility. We move quickly without needless bureaucracy.
