Job description

HEAD OF FINANCIAL CONTROL & COMMERCIAL GROWTH

South-Shore

Numbers tell a story. You know how to read it — and turn it into decisions. We have a role built for exactly that.

THE OPPORTUNITY

A fast-growing Quebec company known for its sustainable practices is ready to level up its finance function. Its teams deliver essential services — hygiene, cleanliness, sanitation — to thousands of clients across the province, every single day.

The mandate: build a finance function that can keep pace with that growth. You report directly to senior management, with direct access to the files that matter — innovation, acquisitions, structuring.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

  • You get trusted with the decisions that matter — not just the reports that summarize them.
  • A team that moves forward together, where collaboration beats competition.
  • Direct access to the company's acquisition and innovation initiatives.
  • Work with real purpose: your numbers support essential services for thousands of clients.
  • Job stability, full benefits, and leadership that actually recognizes great work.

THE ROLE, IN SHORT

Here, finance doesn't just report — it drives. You become the organization's financial compass, turning data into clear strategic choices while building the foundation that supports what's next.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Strategy and growth

  • Take part in the company's acquisition and innovation projects.
  • Turn forecasts and financial analysis into concrete recommendations for leadership.
  • Work with outside experts (tax, IT, innovation) on strategic projects.

Financial and accounting management

  • Oversee the full accounting function — accounts receivable and payable, general ledger, payroll.
  • Deliver reliable, on-time financial statements in accordance with ASPE standards.
  • Lead monthly and annual closings.

Governance and continuous improvement

  • Put in place the internal controls and policies that protect the company.
  • Ensure compliance with federal and provincial financial requirements.
  • Spot efficiency gains — inventory, automation, workflow.

WHAT YOU BRING

  • Accounting degree + CPA designation.
  • 5+ years in accounting (public practice experience an asset).
  • Strong grasp of Canadian accounting standards.
  • Leadership, communication, and problem-solving instincts.
  • Advanced French; functional English (bilingualism an asset).

THE PROFILE WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • Strategic vision, a cool head for numbers.
  • Leadership that brings people together, not just directs them.
  • Rigor and integrity, no exceptions.
  • Genuine curiosity for continuous improvement.
  • Comfortable with change, a natural partner to leadership.
