Senior Financial Analyst – Healthcare/NPO – Finance Transformation/Growth Opportunity

Join a growing not-for-profit (NPO) healthcare organization that plays a vital role in supporting seniors and the local community. This is an exciting opportunity to join an organization with a strong foundation, a dedicated leadership team, and a clear vision for continued growth, including future expansion opportunities.

Reporting to a CPA-led executive team, this newly created Senior Financial Analyst role offers the opportunity to take ownership of key financial reporting, analysis, and process improvement initiatives while helping shape the future of the Finance function. The role will appeal to a CPA from public accounting with experience supporting Long-Term Care, healthcare, or not-for-profit clients, or an industry professional with direct Long-Term Care finance experience looking to take on a broader operational finance role.

You will have the opportunity to enhance financial processes, optimize systems, support Ministry reporting and Long-Term Care funding requirements, contribute to strategic projects, and provide meaningful financial insights to operational leaders. This is an ideal opportunity for a hands-on finance professional who enjoys working independently, improving processes, and making an impact in a mission-driven environment.
