About the Role

We are looking for an experienced, hands-on Financial Controller to take ownership of financial reporting, accounting operations, tax compliance, treasury and financial controls across our growing North American business. This is a key leadership position within Finance, responsible for ensuring our financial records are accurate, compliant and available to support timely business decisions. A major focus of this role will be transforming our traditional month-end close into a more automated, continuous close process, improving financial visibility and reducing manual work.

Responsibilities

Own the month-end and year-end close processes, ensuring timely and accurate financial reporting.
Lead the transition toward a continuous close model through automated daily reconciliations and weekly soft closes.
Prepare and review financial statements, general ledger accounts and supporting schedules.
Provide weekly financial updates and variance reporting for leadership and EOS Level 10 meetings.
Reconcile billing activity to the general ledger monthly, partnering with Billing & Revenue Operations.
Identify reporting discrepancies and implement improvements to increase accuracy and efficiency.
Work toward reducing month-end close timelines to fewer than five business days.
Oversee HST, payroll, corporate income tax and other applicable statutory reporting requirements.
Ensure all tax filings, remittances and compliance deadlines are met accurately and on time.
Coordinate year-end financial reporting, external accountants and audit requirements.
Maintain accurate documentation supporting tax filings, grant claims and financial compliance.
Identify potential financial and regulatory risks and ensure appropriate controls are in place.
Support compliance requirements across Canadian and US operations.
Lead the financial and accounting components of AMZ Prep's US entity setup.
Coordinate with external tax, legal and accounting advisers to establish an appropriate cross-border structure.
Develop and maintain intercompany accounting processes and supporting documentation.
Support transfer pricing, cross-border tax planning and financial reporting requirements.
Ensure the US entity setup is completed according to established timelines and business objectives.
Oversee accounts payable, vendor payments, bank reconciliations and treasury operations.
Manage financial processes and reconciliations across platforms including Ramp, BMO and Venn.
Monitor cash balances, foreign exchange activity and intercompany transactions.
Ensure accurate financial actuals are provided to support the rolling 13-week cash flow forecast.
Identify opportunities to improve payment controls, cash visibility and operational efficiency.
Design, implement and maintain strong internal financial controls embedded into daily workflows.
Identify manual processes that can be automated to improve accuracy, efficiency and scalability.
Increase the percentage of financial reconciliations completed automatically.
Develop clear accounting procedures, approval processes and financial reporting standards.
Establish and maintain a centralized repository of corporate, tax, compliance and financial records.
Partner with the Director of Finance & Strategy on financial projects, process improvements and business initiatives.

Requirements

Significant experience in financial accounting, controllership or a senior accounting role.
Strong knowledge of Canadian accounting standards, financial reporting, reconciliations and internal controls.
Experience managing month-end and year-end close processes.
Solid understanding of Canadian corporate tax, HST, payroll compliance and audit requirements.
Experience with treasury operations, cash management and financial reporting.
Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills, including financial analysis and reporting.
Experience with accounting software, ERP systems and financial automation tools.
Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities and meet critical deadlines.
Strong analytical skills, attention to detail and a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving business where processes are continually being improved.
Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across departments.
Experience with US entities, cross-border accounting, intercompany transactions and transfer pricing.
Experience in logistics, fulfillment, transportation, warehousing or a 3PL environment.
