About the Company:

With a strong reputation for delivering high-quality, responsive, and innovative services, the company supports a wide range of real estate, construction, and development projects across Québec, Ontario, and the U.S. The organization operates in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment with a strong client service orientation, long-standing client relationships, and an emphasis on technical excellence.

Position Overview:

I am currently recruiting on behalf of this client to identify an experienced and highly capable Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to join their leadership team.

  • Implement and maintain robust financial controls, policies, and compliance measures.
  • Provide strategic financial analysis to support business expansion, profitability, and operational efficiency.
  • Develop financial models and scenario planning to evaluate growth opportunities and business risks.
  • Manage all financial reporting, including monthly and quarterly statements, tax filings, and year-end audit processes.
  • Oversee day-to-day financial operations, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, invoicing, and collections.
  • Serve as the primary liaison with banks, financial institutions, auditors, insurance providers, and regulatory agencies.
  • Evaluate and optimize cost structures, pricing models, vendor agreements, and operational processes.
  • Partner closely with ownership on corporate strategy, investments, and business planning initiatives.
  • Lead and mentor internal finance and administration staff.

Key Qualifications:

  • Minimum 10+ years of progressive experience in finance, accounting, and senior financial leadership roles (Canadian market experience strongly preferred).
  • CPA designation is strongly preferred.
  • Extensive knowledge of GAAP, taxation, financial reporting, and regulatory compliance.
  • Experience in small-to-mid-sized private companies, preferably within consulting, professional services, project-based industries, or technical sectors.
  • Proven ability to implement and optimize financial processes, systems, and reporting frameworks.
  • Bilingual in French and English is required.
  • Strong leadership, analytical, and problem-solving skills with a hands-on, roll-up-the-sleeves approach.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills with the ability to partner across departments and levels.

Work Model:

This position is based out of the organization's head office in Montréal, QC, with in-office presence expected.
