Job description
Job Description

  • Markham, ON - 5 days per week On-site (Hwy 404 / Steeles)
  • up to $85k base p/a
  • Profit sharing program
  • Full benefits

A well-established, profitable Canadian manufacturer with over 50 years in business is looking for a reliable, detail-driven accounting professional to join a tight-knit Markham office. Part of a larger, well-resourced corporate group, this company punches above its weight in terms of the support, infrastructure, and finance expertise available to whoever sits in this seat. This is a role with real ownership, real variety, and the kind of stability that is increasingly hard to find.

The Culture

This is a 10-person office (100 total with plant) inside a company that has been operating for over 50 years. People here do not job-hop. The environment is collaborative, friendly, and built on genuine relationships. You will have your own private office, the active support of a knowledgeable finance team, and a GM who is present and accessible day-to-day. The company's values are not a poster on the wall. They show up in how people treat each other every day: be persistent, be respectful, be informed, be dependable, and always be looking for excellence.

What You Will Be Doing

Accounting and Reporting

  • Own month-end close including journal entries, accruals, balance sheet reconciliations, and financial statement preparation
  • Perform variance analysis on key expense and revenue lines versus prior month and prior year and present findings to management
  • Prepare monthly management reporting packages
  • Maintain fixed asset schedules and support annual budget preparation and tracking
  • Coordinate external audit documentation and support consolidated reporting requirements

Payroll and Compliance

  • Process bi-weekly payroll for approximately 100 employees using PayWorks, full training provided
  • Manage CRA remittances, ROEs, T4s, WSIB, EHT, and year-end payroll compliance
  • Prepare and file monthly GST/HST returns
  • Administer group benefits including enrolments, updates, and RRSP reporting

AP, AR and Bookkeeping

  • Manage full-cycle AP and AR including vendor relations, invoice coding, collections, and credit notes
  • Monitor bank balances and flag cash flow concerns proactively
  • Prepare bookkeeping for the related holding company
  • Assist with the planned transition to Microsoft Dynamics Business Central

Qualifications

  • 5 + years of hands-on full cycle accounting and reporting experience
  • Post-secondary education in accounting, finance, or a related field
  • Experience with QuickBooks Online or a comparable accounting system
  • Payroll platform experience (PayWorks knowledge is an asset; similar platforms considered)
  • Strong Excel skills and comfort with the MS Office suite
  • Someone who works independently, stays on top of things without being reminded, and has the confidence to flag something that does not look right
  • A communicator who is clear, professional, and easy to work with across all levels of the organization
  • Someone who genuinely takes pride in accuracy and getting things done the right way

Why Is This a Great Opportunity

  • Standalone ownership with a full team behind you

You are the accounting lead on the ground in Markham, but you are never on your own. A full finance team at the parent company, including a Controller and Assistant Controller, is actively available to support, guide, and collaborate. You get the autonomy of a standalone role with the safety net of a much larger organization.

  • A company that actually looks after its people

Profit sharing, full benefits, tuition reimbursement, and a culture where people stay for decades. This is not a revolving door. People build careers here and the company's track record backs that up, including one of their top five revenue years ever in a challenging market year.

  • Room to grow if you want it

Do great work here and doors open. The parent company is actively growing and has a track record of recognizing talent across the group. For the right person, this is a starting point, not a ceiling.

PACKAGE + SPECS:

  • Base salary up to $85,000 p/a depending on experience
  • Profit sharing program (after 1 year of service)
  • Health and dental coverage with extended health care
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • Life insurance
  • Tuition reimbursement
  • Private office, fully on-site in Markham
