The Interim Director of Finance will provide leadership across day-to-day finance activities while ensuring strong financial governance, reliable reporting, and effective operational controls.

Key Responsibilities

  • Oversee the preparation of monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting
  • Manage month-end and year-end close activities to ensure accuracy and timeliness
  • Maintain a strong internal control environment and support compliance requirements
  • Serve as a key contact for external audit activity and related deliverables
  • Provide leadership over accounts payable and accounts receivable teams
  • Oversee payroll from a governance, controls, and financial reporting perspective
  • Support cash flow oversight, banking relationships, and treasury-related activities
  • Contribute to accounting policy development, process improvement, and finance modernization efforts
  • Partner with the CFO and other leaders on cross-functional initiatives impacting finance operations and reporting
  • Lead, coach, and develop a team across finance operations and accounting
  • Prepare finance-related materials for executive and board-level review as needed

Qualifications

  • CPA or equivalent accounting designation strongly preferred
  • 10+ years of progressive finance and accounting experience
  • Demonstrated leadership experience in a senior finance role with team management responsibilities
  • Strong background in financial reporting, accounting operations, and internal controls
  • Experience overseeing AP and AR functions
  • Familiarity with payroll oversight and audit support
  • Exposure to pension accounting, investments, treasury, or similar complex finance areas would be considered an asset
  • Experience in not-for-profit is highly desirable; however, candidates from other regulated sectors will also be considered
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to work effectively across finance and non-finance stakeholders
