Are you looking for a blended FP&A and accounting position with room to grow into a strategic leadership role?

We're partnering with a well-established organization in North York to find a Senior Financial Planning Analyst for a newly created, permanent position. Reporting to the Controller and working closely with a small, collaborative finance team, this is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys wearing multiple hats — with approximately 70% of responsibilities focused on FP&A and 30% on accounting. This is a high-impact role that will evolve alongside the business, with strong visibility and room for advancement.

Why You’ll Love This Role:

- Benefits from day one (Blue Cross), RRSP match up to 4% (Manulife), and 5 personal/sick days

- CPA dues and professional development covered

- Casual, fun office culture with a team of approximately 250 employees

- Employee discounts on merchandise — sports fans will especially appreciate the company culture!

- Core hours are 9–5 with slight flexibility; primarily on-site with occasional work-from-home accommodations

- Closed on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve

- Strong mentorship under a grounded, respectful leader with a reputation for transparency and support

What You’ll Do:

FP&A Responsibilities (70%)

- Develop, update, and enhance financial models to support entity-level forecasting and sales projections

- Analyze and report on historical sales trends and contribute to weekly sales forecasts

- Quantify impacts of new products, capital expenditures, and investment opportunities (ROI, payback analysis)

- Conduct FX projection modelling and support cash flow planning

- Prepare financial analysis for the Authorization for Expenditure (AFE) process and strategic initiatives

- Assist in developing business strategies through economic and financial research

- Deliver monthly sales reporting and dashboards using tools such as SAP and Excel

- Work on multiple ad-hoc projects to rebuild historical data in preparation for the 2026 budget and a new reporting calendar

- Partner with internal stakeholders to interpret complex data, present insights, and support decision-making

Accounting Responsibilities (30%)

- Support and assist in the month-end close process (typically 2 days, streamlined)

- Prepare journal entries and ensure the accuracy and completeness of financial data inputs

- Assist with fixed asset and capital project accounting, lease accounting (monthly), WIP reporting, and royalty reporting/filing

- Maintain supporting schedules and ensure data integrity across systems

- Help consolidate financial data across two separate databases (post-acquisition integration still in progress)

Qualifications

- 4–5 years of finance or accounting experience, ideally in a mid-sized or public company setting

- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field; CPA designated or actively pursuing

- Advanced Excel skills are essential (v-lookups, pivot tables, extract formulas, etc.)

- Experience with SAP and working knowledge of financial systems and databases

- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with sharp attention to detail

- Comfortable navigating a partially manual environment and contributing to process improvement

- Excellent communication skills — must be able to collaborate with cross-functional teams and present financial insights clearly

- Demonstrated accountability, time management, and adaptability in a dynamic setting

This is a fantastic opportunity for a hands-on finance professional who’s ready to take ownership, add value, and grow with a business that’s evolving — both operationally and strategically.
