Senior Accountant - (Remote) Financial Reporting Analyst

If you’re looking for a workplace with 35-40 hour weeks where overtime is rare, there is a permanent work from home arrangement and most importantly one where you can further your financial reporting skills with listed companies, our Financial Reporting Analyst role could be for you! Our Financial Reporting Analysts take ownership over multiple client files from various industries and if you are willing and interested, there will also be future opportunities to sit as the CFO of a listed public company after adequate training.

You may be performing some activities for the first time, but there is a great team of designated professionals behind you to provide guidance and assistance. As long as you are an elite problem solver, working with us will be rewarding and provide an invaluable learning experience. This is a great transitional role to prepare you for the real-life challenges of working directly for a public company.

What will your days look like

• Assisting with ERP implementation, cost accounting, budgeting and projections
• Assisting clients with their financial reporting requirements – creating draft annual and quarterly financial statements and their accompanying Management Discussion & Analysis.
• Coordination and assisting with client valuations
• Involvement in IPO planning and prospectus preparation
• Researching and interpreting accounting policy research and providing recommendations

Requirements

Skills - Must Have:

• Having public company audit and/or financial reporting experience specifically with small to mid sized businesses is a must
• You have great interpersonal skills and are comfortable working directly with clients
• Chartered Professional Accountant, or foreign equivalent
• You love to work independently in an autonomous entrepreneurial environment but can still be heavily relied upon to be a supportive team member
• You should have significant exposure to complex IFRS accounting issues; especially debt and equity financing transactions
• You like looking to accounting standards and other guidance for answers rather than just following what they did last year
