Manager, Financial Reporting and Advisory Services - Mining

The Role

At Treewalk, you’ll own the entire public-company reporting cycle: fast closes, MD&A storytelling, IFRS/US GAAP judgment calls, and scalable system design. You’ll own end-to-end financial disclosure for a portfolio of high growth clients in mining at a pivotal stage: moving from exploration and evaluation into mine construction, commissioning and commercial production. Many engagements will tap you as a de-facto fractional CFO, guiding strategy as well as disclosure; others will lean on you as the go-to technical expert. Either way, every file is yours to run.

Deadlines are real; overtime isn’t a lifestyle. We staff sensibly, treat extra hours as the rare exception, and back that up with true schedule autonomy and remote flexibility—so your evenings stay yours.

If you’ve led pub-co audits at a small- to mid-size firm or managed reporting inside a listed mining issuer, and you’re ready to trade 70-hour busy-season marathons for high-impact work, tangible ownership, and genuine balance, then we would love to hear from you.

How You’ll Create Impact Day-to-Day

• Own the story behind the numbers: Draft and polish quarterly and annual financial statements and MD&A, including non-GAAP measures such as cash costs and all-in sustaining costs, that stand up to capital-markets scrutiny and tell each client’s path from discovery to production.
• Navigate the leap to production: Guide clients through each stage gate, from exploration and evaluation through development and commercial production. Assess technical feasibility and commercial viability, reclassify E&E assets to mine development with the required impairment test, determine when an asset is ready for its intended use, and track capex and burn rate against construction milestones.
• Master the technical hurdles: Tackle complex issues such as E&E capitalization, pre-production sales proceeds, capitalized borrowing costs, deferred stripping, units-of-production depletion, stockpile and leach-pad inventory, reclamation and closure provisions, and impairment triggers. Package them into robust technical memos and disclosures aligned with NI 43-101 and S-K 1300 technical reports.
• Untangle complex capital structures: Work through streaming and royalty financings, flow-through share premiums, project and cost-overrun debt facilities, offtake prepayments, warrants (including foreign-currency-denominated derivative warrant liabilities), convertible instruments, unit offerings, and stock-based compensation.
• Run the engine of multi-entity groups: Build rock-solid consolidation and foreign-currency translation models for multi-jurisdiction project companies, joint ventures, and earn-in arrangements that make complex structures look effortless.
• Turn data into insight: Deliver sharp balance sheet and P&L analyses, spotlighting trends and red-flag variances before anyone else sees them.
• Keep leadership laser-focused: Produce monthly variance reports against forecasts, annual plans, and feasibility study and construction budgets, translating the findings into clear, action-ready recommendations, including cash runway and financing timing.
• Shape the roadmap: Guide annual budgets and rolling forecasts, aligning stakeholders around targets that push the business without breaking it.
• Step in as the “extra brain”: Handle special-project bookkeeping or period-end close entries when clients need a fractional controller’s precision and speed.
• Make audits painless: Design year-end audit plans, prep airtight support, and quarterback conversations with external auditors so CEOs and CFOs can sleep at night.
• Guard continuous disclosure: Stay ahead of regulatory changes, draft timely filings, and ensure nothing slips through the cracks on SEDAR+ or EDGAR.

Result: clients see you as the calm, expert voice who keeps them compliant and strategic, while you deepen mastery in mining without the grind of traditional public practice.

Our ideal candidate...

• CPA designation required.

• Significant public company audit and/or financial reporting experience, serving or working within producing or near-producing mining reporting issuers listed in Canada and/or the US, reporting under IFRS and/or US GAAP. Hands-on experience through the transition into production is a strong asset.

• After the base experience requirements are met, we hire first and foremost for strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  

Why Treewalk Feels Different

It’s Treewalk for a reason: we invest in your growth, trust your judgment, and protect your life outside the ledger.

• No-Strings Learning Fund – We pay 100 % of your CPA modules, annual dues, and any pro-dev courses you choose—and we’ll never claw it back if you move on.

• Freedom Over Face-Time – Own your deadlines, shape your schedule. Hit a midday workout, do the school run—just bring the results.

Who We Are

Treewalk is Vancouver-born, scaling nationwide, and obsessed with turning capital-markets complexity into clarity. We give TSX-V, CSE, NASDAQ, and OTC issuers an end-to-end disclosure engine—so they can focus on growth while we keep them bullet-proof in the spotlight.

But labels like “accounting firm” don’t capture our DNA. Picture a tech startup powered by CPAs:

• Holacracy over hierarchy – Ideas outrank titles, and ownership lives on every desk.

• Industry-agnostic curiosity – From biotech to blockchain to next-gen retail, if it’s innovative, we’re already in it—or will be tomorrow.

• Growth at warp speed – One of Canada’s fastest-rising advisory practices, we set audacious goals, then sprint past them.

• Training ground for tomorrow’s CFOs – Whether you’re two years post-designation or a seasoned controller, Treewalk is where accountants level-up for industry roles and capital-markets strategy.
