A well-established, profitable Canadian manufacturer with over 50 years in business is looking for a reliable, detail-driven accounting professional to join a tight-knit Markham office. Part of a larger, well-resourced corporate group, this company punches above its weight in terms of the support, infrastructure, and finance expertise available to whoever sits in this seat. This is a role with real ownership, real variety, and the kind of stability that is increasingly hard to find.

Culture

This is a 10-person office (100 total with plant) inside a company that has been operating for over 50 years. People here do not job-hop. The environment is collaborative, friendly, and built on genuine relationships. You will have your own private office, the active support of a knowledgeable finance team, and a GM who is present and accessible day-to-day. The company's values are not a poster on the wall. They show up in how people treat each other every day: be persistent, be respectful, be informed, be dependable, and always be looking for excellence.

• Perform variance analysis on key expense and revenue lines versus prior month and prior year and present findings to management.
• Prepare monthly management reporting packages.
• Maintain fixed asset schedules and support annual budget preparation and tracking.
• Coordinate external audit documentation and support consolidated reporting requirements.

Payroll and Compliance

• Process bi-weekly payroll for approximately 100 employees using PayWorks, full training provided.
• Manage CRA remittances, ROEs, T4s, WSIB, EHT, and year-end payroll compliance.
• Prepare and file monthly GST/HST returns.
