The Senior Manager, Accounting is responsible for overseeing the company's financial reporting activities and ensuring compliance with both U.S. GAAP and Canadian accounting requirements. As part of a Private Equity backed SaaS software company, this role serves as the organization's subject matter expert on accounting standards, financial statement preparation, and technical accounting matters across a multi-entity, cross-border environment.

Reporting to the Vice President, Finance & Controllership, this role plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity of the company's financial reporting (including consolidated statements, footnotes, and audit papers), supporting audits and providing accounting guidance for complex transactions.
