The ideal candidate brings strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and the ability to collaborate effectively with Sales Operations, Finance, and HR/Payroll teams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own monthly, quarterly, and annual variable incentive programs, including MBOs, presale commissions, and sales commissions.
  • Validate sales performance data, compensation plan eligibility, and payout calculations.
  • Maintain and update Xactly Incent to reflect earned commissions, adjustments, clawbacks, and payment status.
  • Reconcile Xactly Incent outputs with internal financial records to ensure accuracy and completeness.

Financial Reporting & Accruals

  • Prepare monthly commission accruals in accordance with company policies and accounting standards.
  • Analyze commission trends, variances, and forecast impacts for financial reporting.
  • Support month-end close activities, including journal entries, reconciliations, and supporting schedules.
  • Partner with FP&A to provide commission-related insights for budgeting and forecasting.

Payroll Coordination

  • Collaborate with HR and Payroll to ensure timely and accurate release of commissions and MBO payments.
  • Provide payroll-ready files, approvals, and documentation for each commission cycle.
  • Resolve discrepancies between payroll records, Xactly Incent, and accounting schedules.

Process & System Management

  • Maintain commission plan documentation, workflows, and internal controls.
  • Support enhancements to Xactly Incent, including configuration updates, testing, and data validation.
  • Leverage AI tools and automation to streamline accounting workflows, enhance reporting accuracy, and improve operational efficiency.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.
  • 1-2 years of accounting experience, preferably with exposure to commissions or variable compensation.
  • Experience with Xactly Incent strongly preferred; other commission systems an asset.
  • Strong understanding of accrual accounting and financial reporting.
  • Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, formulas).
  • Excellent attention to detail, analytical thinking, and problem‑solving ability.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work cross‑functionally.

Competencies
