Director of Finance

Our client has developed an exciting product and is involved in the manufacturing and distribution of this product. They have a proven product that they have been selling for a number of years in 25 different countries with the product being proven to be very successful and well received by the practitioners that use it.  The company is excited about the next level in their business cycle and has the need for a Director of Finance to report directly to the President. The main focus of the position will revolve around the financial aspects of their organization and, as a result, requires a person with a CPA designation. The duties are very hands-on as you will be the only person to handle the accounting functions initially ( you will likely hire some staff later on).  In addition to the day to day accounting, you will also be involved in the budgeting processes, will be assisting in managing the cash flows, modeling and will be involved with effective reporting for both internal and external use. The President can assist in training you in these more senior functions if you require it.  Initially, there may also be some business operations functions as well as overseeing the manufacturing activity (which is subcontracted to a company).  As this is a “ground-floor” position, it is necessary that the successful candidate be extremely hands-on but also able to see the big picture. Please also note that our client is anticipating going public in the next 18 months so any experience with public company reporting would be very useful. The position offers exceptional growth potential for the right candidate. If interested, please forward your resume, in the strictest of confidence, to Ben Moxon CPA, CA at bmoxon@telus.net
