  • Account for foreign exchange and cross-border transactions
  • Track and reconcile intercompany balances and transactions

Cash Management & Payments

  • Oversee day-to-day cash flow and banking activities
  • Prepare and process payments, including wires and other disbursements
  • Ensure appropriate documentation, approvals, and controls are maintained

Accounts Payable & Administration

  • Process invoices and maintain well-organized financial records
  • Ensure all transactions are accurately recorded and supported
  • Assist with administrative and ad hoc financial responsibilities as needed

Year-End & Tax Support

  • Prepare year-end working papers and account reconciliations
  • Coordinate with external advisors on corporate, trust, and personal tax filings
  • Compile documentation and respond to audit and tax-related requests

Qualifications & Experience

  • CPA designation (or equivalent) required
  • Experience in full-cycle accounting within a multi-entity, family office, or similar environment
  • Strong accounting foundation with the ability to manage complex transactions
  • Exposure to investment accounting and multi-currency environments
  • Proficiency with accounting systems (e.g., QuickBooks or similar) and advanced Excel skills
  • Working knowledge of Canadian tax principles is an asset

What We're Looking For

  • Hands-on, detail-oriented professional comfortable balancing routine and complex work
  • Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities
  • Ability to operate with discretion and handle sensitive financial information
  • Strong communication skills and confidence working with senior stakeholders
  • Self-motivated individual with an ownership mindset and the ability to work independently
