Accounting Manager


Location: Burnaby, BC

Work Model: Head office based, with the option to work from home one day per week after probation

Compensation: $90,000-$100,000 base salary + up to 10% bonus

Benefits: Vacation, extended benefits, RRSP

 

About the Opportunity

This is a great opportunity for an accounting professional who enjoys leading teams, improving processes, and being part of a stable, growing business.

Our client is a well-established organization with a strong reputation, decades of steady growth and dynamic corporate culture. It’s a newly created role due to continued growth and recent acquisitions.

This role is ideal for someone who loves leading and coaching a team while supporting month-end close, and helping improve consistency, structure, and reporting quality across the function.

 

What You’ll Be Doing

Reporting to the Senior Manager, Corporate FP&A, you will oversee the accounting function for a key business unit and provide leadership to the accounting team.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading and reviewing the month-end close process
  • Reviewing accounts payable, accounts receivable, journal entries, reconciliations, and supporting schedules
  • Preparing and reviewing working papers
  • Supporting the upload and review of financial statements and reporting packages
  • Reviewing sales tax requirements
  • Preparing quarterly reporting
  • Assisting with external financial statements
  • Supporting the year-end audit process
  • Coaching, mentoring, and developing a team of accounting members
  • Helping create consistency and stronger reporting processes as the business continues to grow

 

Who You Are

You are a strong accountant who enjoys both the technical and people side of accounting. You’re comfortable working in a more complex environment and take pride in helping your team succeed.

You bring:

  • A CPA designation and post-secondary education in a relevant field
  • 7+ years of progressive accounting experience; leasing, equipment finance, real estate, or asset-based industry preferred with at least 3 years in a supervisory capacity leading a team
  • Experience in a complex, multi-entity, or consolidation environment would be a strong asset
  • Advanced skills in MS Excel and advanced ERP experience 
  • A collaborative leadership style and genuine interest in mentoring others
  • A steady, practical approach to improving processes and supporting business growth

 

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a newly created role, so you’ll have the chance to make a meaningful impact from the start. The organization is stable, established, and continuing to grow, making this a strong long-term opportunity for someone who wants to build their career in a leadership role.

You’ll be joining at a time when the finance function is becoming more centralized, which means there is a real opportunity to help shape processes and contribute to a high-performing team.

Long-term there may also be future opportunity to gain exposure to broader North American operations as the company continues to evolve.

 

What’s Offered

  • Base salary of $90,000-$100,000 and up to 10% annual bonus
  • Vacation, Extended health benefits, RRSP
  • Hybrid flexibility after probation (one day working from home)
  • A stable, growing environment with long-term career potential
  • A leadership role where coaching and team development are genuinely valued
