Toronto, Canada Riverside Natural Foods Full time

Join Riverside Natural Foods Ltd., a $300 million+ Canadian-based, family-owned, and globally operating business, committed to leaving the world better than we found it. As a B-Corp certified, Triple-Bottom Line, Zero Waste company, we are proudly manufacturing nutritious, 'better-for-you" snacks known as MadeGood and GOOD TO GO. We value teamwork, humility, respect, ownership, adaptability, grit, and fun.

We’re on an ambitious mission to double our business by 2027, and we need talented individuals like you to help us reach new heights. At Riverside, you’ll have the opportunity to chart your own path to success while contributing to ours. We believe anything worth doing is worth doing right, and our values will guide us through the rugged terrain – and yes, it will get rough. But that’s what makes the journey worthwhile.

So, lace up your boots and let’s tackle the climb together. Join us as our Senior Cost Accountant.

Position Summary: 

As the Senior Cost Accountant, you will assist in achieving the company’s goals by providing financial leadership to our plant operations, procurement and other cross functional support teams. This includes monthly production variance reporting, product costing analysis, financial forecasting and year end audit support. You will be the primary finance partner to your plant team, helping bring the financial insight they require to drive the right actions and behaviors.

Primary Responsibilities:

Work closely with plant managers and the production team to ensure the smooth running of our manufacturing facilities, investigating and resolving day-to-day issues that arise. Own plant level costing, using production reports to understand key trends and variances. Review and analyze costing elements for each production line, validate product costing for innovation or formula changes with supply chain and R&D teams, and conduct ad hoc costing analytics. Drive compliance of our costing policies, processes and procedures, and provide recommendations for improvement and efficiency. Maintain documentation on our costing processes and methodologies. Prepare ad-hoc reports and analysis with variance explanations and recommendations as required by Plant Managers, the Finance team and the Senior Leadership Team. Provide recommendations on opportunities for productivity initiatives and areas of opportunity across our manufacturing footprint, which could include inventory management, controls, quality, safety or other key areas. Support the year-end audit by providing working papers and costing analytics.

Key Qualifications:

Bachelor's Degree (business, finance or accounting specialization preferred).  Accounting designation (CPA) or working towards completion. 3-5 years of progressive experience in finance or accounting in a manufacturing environment. CPG experience is an asset. Familiarity with costing methodologies, and experience with SAP or other ERP systems. Strong record of performance management, financial analysis and planning accountability.  Excellent analytical and financial modeling skills, with strong attention to detail. Strong excel skills are required. Experience uncovering key insights and leveraging them to make fact-based decisions. Experience collaborating with and influencing cross-functional partners, with a solutions-oriented approach to solving problems.  Proactive and ambitious mindset, willing to challenge the status quo to improve the business. Strong communication skills, and comfort working with more senior leaders of the organization. What we expect: Vales-led: You’ll be a member of a thoughtful and compassionate team that prioritizes respect, teamwork and resourcefulness along with a good dash of fun. Sometimes, even making granola bars is hard, and life’s too short to take ourselves so seriously that we don’t enjoy the journey. Unparalleled experiences and opportunities : We’re still determining who we are and what we can be. Help us shape what this organization will look like and what we’ll offer the world, into the future. This means rolling up your sleeves and sometimes building the process – fast – while employing it. At Riverside, progress occasionally means proceeding imperfectly, and we’re okay with that, as long as we’re staying true to our values and learning and improving along the way. Access to everyone: We’re a flat organization with few silos which means you’ll have full access to everyone from our founders to our production staff. Even when employees dress up, they wear steel-toed shoes. So don’t be shy. Speak up, share your ideas and go places you normally wouldn’t – like the plant, or the boardroom. Personal development : We’ll support and empower you to chart your own path and reach any heights you set for yourself. Career paths at Riverside are carved by the people walking on them, not dictated by leaders. Count on us to give you the training and tools to grow and progress. Gratitude : As a growing business, we can’t always offer formal recognition like awards programs, but we do show our true gratitude and appreciation. At Riverside, we’re all in this together and we value you.

What We Offer:

Values-led: We don’t cut corners or step on anyone or anything on our way to our summit. There is no winning at all costs here. Every step you take must align with our values, no compromises. Courageous determination: As a family-run, rapidly growing business, we are often challenged to find ways to deliver that aren’t obvious or easy. You must be willing to try, ask and answer challenging questions, test and learn, turn over every stone, keep moving forward and help us find a way through. Resourcefulness and grit will be your constant companions at Riverside and will serve you well. Humility:  We’re a small (but growing) fish in a sea of whales and sharks. We know the products we offer are some of the healthiest and most sustainable, but we don’t brag about it, and know we have a steep path ahead. We pride ourselves in being respectful and supportive of others while shining bright through our innovative, high-quality products. There isn’t one superstar at Riverside. We take turns leading the way as we climb to the summit. Continuous improvement: As a learn-as-we-go organization, we rely on each other to continuously improve everything we touch to make it better, more efficient, more sustainable, and more endearing to customers, consumers, employees, vendors, partners and the community. We own our mistakes and learn from them as we wind our way to the top.
