About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Financial Controller to own and scale our financial operations. This is a foundational role for someone who thrives in a growth environment, who wants to shape and optimize processes, contributing to the evolution of a growing structure, and takes pride in running a tight, well-organized finance function.

You will be responsible for the accuracy and integrity of our books, the timeliness of our close process, and the quality of our financial reporting — across multiple entities and geographies. You'll work closely with the Head of Finance & Operations and report into them directly. You will also manage one direct report, our internal AR coordinator, who handles client-facing billing and collections.

This is not a strategic finance role. It's a builder role — for someone who wants to own a function, do the work, and set the foundation for a world-class finance operation.

What You'll Do

Accounting Operations

• Own day-to-day accounting across general ledger, AP/AR, payroll, billing and collections.
• Monitor outbound payment obligations and ensure funds are available when due, recording transactions through journal entries in NetSuite.
• Manage the month-end and year-end close process, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and complete balance sheet reconciliations
• Ensure accurate multi-entity and multi-currency accounting across Canada and the United States
• Prepare and maintain monthly financial statements, management reports, cash flow analyses, and supporting schedules
• Perform variance analysis and support forecasting in collaboration with the Head of Finance & Operations

Systems & Process

• Lead the implementation of NetSuite and manage the migration from QuickBooks Online
• Establish and maintain accounting policies, internal controls, and scalable financial processes
• Leverage third-party tools and automation to improve efficiency and operational excellence

Revenue & Compliance

• Ensure accurate revenue recognition in line with SaaS subscription and contract structures
• Coordinate with external accountants, auditors, and tax advisors across Canada and the US

Who We're Looking For

Experience

• 5+ years of experience in accounting or finance
• Experience in SaaS, technology, or B2B services (strongly preferred)
• Exposure to startup or early-stage companies (strong asset)
• Experience with automotive retail or dealership environments (a plus)
• Experience in multi currency and jurisdiction
• CPA designation or in progress (valued asset)

Technical Skills

• Strong understanding of SaaS financial models and subscription revenue
• Experience with revenue recognition and contract-based billing
• Proficiency with NetSuite, QuickBooks, or similar accounting systems
• Strong Excel skills; comfortable with financial reporting and reconciliation

Language

• Comfortable working in English; French proficiency is a strong asset

Soft Skills

• Builder mindset: comfortable creating structure where none exists
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and analytical
• Hands-on and proactive, with a bias toward action
• Strong communicator who can work closely with a lean leadership team
• Comfortable wearing multiple hats in a fast-moving startup environment
• Hybrid work model with a three-day in-office rhythm, based in Laval
• Competitive compensation and real growth opportunities as the company scales
• A collaborative team that values clarity, trust, and getting things done

Total Compensation: CA$105,000 – CA$150,000 per year, based on experience and internal equity
