We’re a small, hands‑on team that ships real product, moves fast, and is building something we’re proud of.

About

The Role
We’re hiring a Finance Associate/Analyst to be the backbone of our finance function. You’ll report directly to the CFO and Controller — meaning daily mentorship and real exposure to how a growing CPG business is run financially.

Day to day, you’ll own the bookkeeping, AP, and AR that keep the business running. But this is not a narrow seat: as the most junior member of a lean, senior team, you’ll flex into whatever the business needs — reconciliations, month‑end support, reporting, analysis, and ad‑hoc projects.

If you want to learn corporate finance from the ground up with people who’ll invest in you, this is the role.

What You’ll Do

Own day‑to‑day bookkeeping: process vendor invoices, code to GL, run weekly payment runs (EFT, wire, cheque), generate customer invoices, and apply cash receipts

Reconcile retailer remittances and work through deduction backup including chargebacks, MCB, shortages, freight claims, and promotional clawbacks

Reconcile bank and credit card accounts monthly

Process employee expense reports and maintain clean, audit‑ready records

Support month‑end close and assist with financial reporting
Build spreadsheets and pull data to support analysis, budgeting, and decision‑making

Flex into ad‑hoc finance projects as the company scales across Canada and the US

What We’re Looking For

1–4 years of accounting, bookkeeping, or finance experience (new grads with a strong internship welcome)

Accounting or finance degree, or working toward a CPA designation

Strong Excel skills and comfort working with numbers and data

Experience with Xero or a comparable cloud accounting system (an asset)

Detail‑oriented, organized, and eager to take on more than the job description

Clear, professional written communication

A genuine desire to grow into a broader finance role

Nice to Have

CPG, food and beverage, or wholesale industry experience

Familiarity with retailer deductions (Loblaw, Sobeys, Metro, Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods)

Exposure to US AR and multi‑currency (USD/CAD) transactions

What You’ll Get

Direct mentorship from a CFO and Controller — a rare chance to learn corporate finance at close range

A clear path to grow into a more senior analyst or accounting role as the company scales

Meaningful, visible work at a growing Canadian food brand with national and US distribution

Full‑time, in‑office role with benefits
