Growth-oriented Corporate Accountant to manage the day-to-day accounting function of the business. This role is ideal for a professional with at least 3 years of full-cycle accounting experience who is looking for more ownership and development in a hands-on, dynamic environment.

You will be the go-to person for transactional accounting, reconciliations, and financial operations. You will work closely with our CFO—who remains actively involved in the business and will support, guide, and mentor you as the company scales. This is an opportunity to grow alongside the company, with future potential for expanded responsibilities and leadership.

  • Serve as the first point of contact for customer finance inquiries
  • Ensure proper revenue recognition aligned with delivery and contractual terms

Accounts Payable & Vendor Support

  • Enter and process vendor invoices and payments accurately and on time
  • Maintain up-to-date records for payables and ensure proper expense classification
  • Track capital assets and prepaid expenses to ensure correct accounting treatment
  • Process employee expense reports and staff reimbursements

General Ledger & Financial Reporting

  • Prepare and post journal entries, including accruals, prepaids, and amortization
  • Reconcile general ledger accounts and bank statements regularly
  • Support the CFO with month-end close and financial package preparation
  • Maintain organized working papers

Process Ownership & Continuous Improvement

  • Maintain consistency and accuracy in day-to-day accounting processes
  • Identify opportunities for automation or simplification in routine workflows
  • Assist in documenting procedures and building internal discipline around financial operations

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Liaise with operations and project teams to ensure accounting reflects business activity
  • Support inventory and costing data accuracy with input from cross-functional stakeholders
  • Provide financial data or insight needed for internal decision-making or planning

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree or diploma in Accounting, Finance, or related field
  • Minimum 3 years of full-cycle accounting experience
  • Strong understanding of Canadian accounting practices (ASPE familiarity is a plus)
  • Confident using accounting software and Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, VLOOKUP, etc.)
  • Experience in a product-based or project-driven business is considered an asset
  • Experience with Zoho Books

Benefits

  • Be part of a high-growth company shaping the future of architectural signage and cladding
  • Competitive compensation based on experience
  • Enjoy company events that foster team spirit
