Controller
The Sales Factory · Remote, Canada
About The Role
What You'll Do
- -
- Own day-to-day financial operations in QuickBooks or Xero: bookkeeping, invoicing, A/R, A/P, and bill processing (much of this is being automated, and you'll help drive that).
- -
- Own payroll end to end, start to finish, within Ceridian Dayforce — including employer taxes and remittances across Canadian and US entities.
- -
- Manage month-end close and keep our financials accurate and audit-ready.
- -
- Handle filings, audit documentation, and finance-side client onboarding (banking info requests, vendor forms, etc.).
- -
- Rebuild and maintain our financial model from the ground up, with input and oversight from our advisors.
- -
- Coordinate with our fractional CFO on higher-level reporting and financial planning.
- -
- Ad-hoc projects across finance and operations as we grow.
What We're Looking For
-
5 to 8 years of progressive accounting experience.
-
CPA, CA strongly preferred.
-
Currently a Senior Manager of Accounting, Assistant Controller, or similar, ready to step into a Controller seat.
-
Must be able to run payroll start to finish independently within Ceridian Dayforce — new hires, terminations, deductions, benefits, off-cycle runs, employer taxes, and remittances — with no ramp-up time needed on the platform.
-
Exceptional attention to detail. You catch the penny that's off.
-
Smart, fast, and curious. You figure things out without a playbook.
-
Tech-savvy: comfortable with modern accounting and automation tools (QuickBooks/Xero, Excel/Google Sheets), quick to pick up new software.
-
Comfortable working independently in an individual-contributor capacity, with direct exposure to the CEO and fractional CFO rather than a large finance team.
-
Experience in a services or agency business is a plus.
-
Cross-border (Canada/US) exposure is a plus.
Why This Role
- -
- Full ownership of the finance function at a profitable, growing company.
- -
- Direct exposure to the CEO, fractional CFO, and external advisors.
- -
- Clear growth path: this is a build-and-grow seat, not a maintenance job.
- -
- Modern stack, real automation, no legacy bureaucracy.
