Description
Vice President, Finance
We’re looking for a senior finance leader who is ready to take ownership of the finance function today and grow into a Chief Financial Officer role over time. This is not a role where you’ll simply oversee reports from a distance. You’ll be hands-on with the business, leading the finance function across two companies, strengthening processes, partnering directly with ownership, and helping shape the company’s growth strategy.
What You'll Do
- Own and elevate finance processes across both companies
- Lead a reliable, accurate, and timely month-end and year-end close
- Deliver consolidated financial reporting across multiple entities and divisions
- Build and manage cash-flow forecasting, budgeting, and variance analysis
- Strengthen financial controls across AP approvals, expenses, AR, and collections
- Own intercompany accounting and consolidations
- Develop accurate inventory reporting across 3PL partners
- Manage U.S. and Canadian tax, remittances, and cross-border payroll
- Lead the annual engagement review and manage external accountants, auditors, and advisors
- Act as the primary banking liaison across Canada and the U.S.
- Lead, coach, and develop the finance team while establishing strong processes and accountability
- Implement HR policies and oversee hiring, onboarding, and key people processes
- Partner closely with ownership on strategy, growth initiatives, and overall business performance
- Continue optimizing and improving the company’s Odoo ERP
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who combines strong technical finance expertise with leadership, business judgment, and a hands-on mindset.
You'll ideally bring:
- CPA designation or equivalent, with significant senior-level finance experience
- Experience leading a finance function and developing a high-performing team
- Strong month-end close and financial reporting experience; multi-entity experience is an asset
- Experience with intercompany accounting, consolidations, cash flow, budgeting, and forecasting
- Experience managing external accountants, auditors, advisors, or annual engagement reviews
- Experience managing banking relationships and acting as a key liaison with lenders
- ERP implementation, optimization, or consolidation experience; Odoo experience is an asset
- U.S. and Canadian cross-border finance experience is a strong advantage
- Experience implementing HR policies and supporting hiring and people processes
- A strategic mindset with the ability to connect financial performance to business growth
- A hands-on, accountable leadership style, someone who can roll up their sleeves when needed
- Strong communication skills and the ability to remain composed and solutions-oriented under pressure
- Most importantly, the ambition to grow into a CFO role
Why This Opportunity?
This is an opportunity for a finance leader who wants more than a title. You'll have direct visibility with ownership, meaningful influence on the business, and the opportunity to build and improve the finance function rather than simply maintain it.
You’ll have the chance to:
- Take ownership of a growing finance function
- Work directly with ownership on business strategy and performance
- Make meaningful improvements to processes, systems, and controls
- Lead and develop a finance team
- Gain broader exposure across finance, operations, people, and strategy
- Build the experience and influence needed to step into the CFO seat
