Prepare government returns, remittances, and payments

Continuous improvement

Identify and lead process and systems improvements, including automation opportunities
Lead special projects that support the company's growth

Skills & Qualifications:

CPA designation (or in the final stages of completing it)
2+ years of progressive accounting experience, ideally in insurance, financial services, or a private company
Experience managing budgets, financial controls, and month-end close
Hands-on payroll processing experience
Strong communication skills, and the ability to explain numbers to non-finance leaders
Curiosity about new tools and better ways of working
Applied EPIC experience is an asset, not a requirement
The successful candidate will be required to undergo a criminal background check and credit check, with their consent, as a condition of employment.
