Our client is a well-established, multi-provincial construction company in Southeast Calgary with operations across Canada.
They are seeking a Controller to own the general ledger, month-end close, ASPE financial reporting, and the internal control environment.
The role reports to the CFO and supervises a small team of 3 people.
The successful candidate will inherit a manual environment with limited balance sheet reconciliation and will be expected to establish the close calendar,
reconciliation discipline, and control framework the company requires. You will own the job cost structure, prepare monthly WIP schedules and
percentage-of-completion calculations, review estimate-at-completion with Project Managers, and report margin movement by contract to senior
leadership, while also acting as internal project owner for payroll, field time capture, and system implementations planned over the next eighteen months.
To succeed, you must be a process-focused self-starter who takes ownership of the full scope of the role and sees work through to completion
without prompting. Sound judgement, business acumen, and the confidence to challenge assumptions are essential, as is the ability to build process
and discipline where little currently exists.
To qualify, you must be a CPA with five or more years of post-designation experience, including supervisory responsibility, and three or more years
in construction or project-based accounting. You must have experience with percentage-of-completion revenue recognition, WIP reporting,
holdback and progress billing, multi-entity reporting, and internal control design. Prior ERP or payroll system implementation experience is strongly preferred.
