Job description

Who - the Company:

Our client is an established real estate investment and asset management company with a diverse portfolio spanning residential rental and commercial properties. Based in Burnaby, they are a lean, high-performing team where smart people do meaningful work and where there is genuine, defined room to grow. This is a business that takes pride in its people and in doing things properly.

What - the Role:

Reporting directly to the VP of Finance, the Controller will play a central role in the financial management and reporting of the group. This is a broad, high impact position that spans financial reporting, tax, asset management, forecasting and internal controls across a multi-entity real estate portfolio.
Key responsibilities include:

  • Preparing monthly, quarterly and annual financial statements across multiple entities.
  • Preparing tax returns, tax working papers and assisting with tax planning deliverables including 3 year forecasts, quarterly forecasts and tax loss carry forward schedules.
  • Preparing weekly corporate cash flow reporting and assisting with budget preparation and overhead expense tracking.
  • Preparing monthly asset management packages including budget vs. actual analysis, cash flow reporting and annual operating budgets.
  • Managing real estate reporting requirements including annual lender and CMHC reporting, Empty Homes Tax and Speculation and Vacancy Tax filings.
  • Assisting with the preparation of investor updates for properties under rental management and supporting insurance applications.
  • Registering GST and corporate tax accounts for new entities and assisting with windup, dissolution or amalgamation of entities as required.
  • Supporting the VP of Finance in the design and implementation of policies, procedures and internal controls to ensure efficient and compliant operations.
  • Leading a small team of 3 direct reports - 1 Intermediate Accountant and 2 co-op students.

Who - the Candidate:

  • CPA designation is a must have - though for a truly exceptional candidate who ticks every other box, the client is open to a conversation.
  • Public practice trained with some industry experience is the preference, though candidates who are entirely industry-based with a relevant real estate or construction background, or entirely public practice with a relevant client portfolio, will also be considered.
  • Heavy financial statement preparation experience is essential.
  • Construction or Real estate experience is required.
  • Familiarity with Timberscan and Sage 300 is preferred.
  • A hands-on leader rather than a delegator - someone who is happy to roll up their sleeves and stay close to the work while also developing and supporting a small team.
  • Sharp, curious, personable and a genuine critical thinker who can work independently and contribute to a close-knit, high performing finance team.

How Much:

  • Base salary of $110,000–$130,000.
  • 3–4 weeks vacation.
  • Comprehensive benefits package.

Where & When:

Full time on site in Burnaby. The role has opened due to the departure of a highly regarded team member and the client is keen to move quickly. The interview process will involve the VP of Finance, a member of the wider accounting team and the COO. Swim Recruiting will be presenting shortlisted candidates directly to the hiring team - please reach out as soon as possible if this opportunity resonates with you.
