Our client, a well-established and growing professional consulting organization, is seeking an experienced Controller to lead their accounting function and serve as a key business partner to leadership. This is an excellent opportunity for a collaborative finance professional who enjoys balancing hands-on accounting responsibilities with team leadership and process improvement.


The successful candidate will bring strong technical accounting expertise, exceptional leadership skills, and experience managing accounting operations within a complex, multi-entity environment.

  • Lead, mentor, and develop the accounting team while fostering a collaborative and high-performing culture.
  • Oversee the full month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting.
  • Prepare and review consolidated financial statements across multiple legal entities.
  • Manage day-to-day accounting operations including general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and cash management.
  • Ensure compliance with accounting standards, regulatory requirements, and internal controls.
  • Partner with executive leadership to provide financial analysis, reporting, and insights that support strategic decision-making.
  • Coordinate annual audits and act as the primary liaison with external auditors.
  • Continuously evaluate and improve accounting processes, systems, and internal controls to enhance efficiency and scalability.



What We Are Looking For

  • CPA designation required.
  • 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including leadership experience in a Controller or senior accounting management role.
  • Proven experience leading and developing accounting teams.
  • Strong operational accounting experience with ownership of the full accounting cycle and month-end close.
  • Experience preparing multi-entity consolidated financial statements.
  • Excellent understanding of financial reporting, internal controls, and accounting best practices.
  • Advanced analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to build relationships across all levels of the organization.

Assets That Will Set You Apart

  • Experience within engineering consulting, construction consulting, professional services, or similarly complex project-based organizations.
  • Experience working in a multi-entity corporate structure.
  • Exposure to ERP implementations or finance transformation initiatives.
  • Process improvement mindset with the ability to streamline and enhance accounting operations.

Why This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity to join a respected organization where finance is viewed as a strategic partner to the business. You will work alongside an engaged leadership team, lead a talented accounting function, and have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact by improving processes, supporting growth, and helping shape the future of the organization.


If you are a collaborative leader who enjoys building strong teams while maintaining a hands-on approach to accounting, we would love to hear from you. Please reach out to Sharon Lovison at 604-229-2573. Please reference job number 05060-0013479702 in all correspondence.
