Join Mojo Food Group as a Senior Bookkeeper to own full‑cycle accounting across a portfolio of food & hospitality businesses, from franchise restaurants to one of the fastest‑growing companies in Canada. You’ll own reconciliations, AP/AR, HST filings and month‑end close, while driving automation and clean financial controls. This is a high‑impact, hands‑on role for a pragmatic accountant who thrives in a fast‑scaling, tech‑first environment.

Mojo Food Group is building a diversified, tech‑enabled food platform that spans fast‑growing brands and formats. Work across:

• Crafty Ramen, one of Canada’s fastest‑growing restaurant brands, and help scale our frozen ramen product globally.
• One of Canada’s most iconic burger brands, where we combine heritage and operational excellence.
• Independent restaurants — including Guelph’s best dining destination.
• A balanced mix of franchise and independent restaurants, food manufacturing operations, and fast‑moving CPG growth.

This role gives you exposure across restaurant operations, manufacturing, and CPG, a great place to build depth and scale your career.

Own accurate day‑to‑day bookkeeping across multiple legal entities, deliver timely reconciliations and HST filings, and support month‑end close. You’ll standardize processes, implement automation, and partner with leadership to make finance predictable and scalable as Mojo expands.

• Support month‑end close activities and year‑end prep for external reporting and audit.
• Publish receipts/invoices from Dext (or equivalent) into Xero / Quick Books Online and keep automation pipelines healthy.
• Build and maintain reconciliation templates and automation (Google Sheets / Excel macros / light scripting where appropriate).

• Collaborate cross‑functionally with operations, manufacturing, and CPG teams to reconcile payment platforms (Square, Stripe, Shopify), payroll systems, and inventory‑related accounts.

• Exposure to payroll platforms (Wagepoint, ADP) and preparing payroll‑related accruals.
• Practical experience with AI‑assisted workflows or automation tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot) to speed reconciliation and reporting.
• Prior work supporting franchise accounting or multi‑location reporting.
