Are you ready to elevate your finance career with a leadership role that blends strategic vision, operational impact, and global reach? We are partnering with a global leader in their industry seeking a dynamic Director of Finance to lead financial operations across multiple facilities in North America and abroad.

This is more than just a reporting role — it's about building teams, shaping policy, improving processes, and guiding an organization toward financial excellence.

The Role

As Director of Finance, you will be the senior financial voice for the business, overseeing a collaborative team of professionals and acting as a key business partner to operational leadership. Your focus will span from financial planning and analysis to forecasting, budgeting, and driving efficiencies across the board.

You'll be instrumental in streamlining processes, leading ERP transformation, and aligning finance with operational strategy — all while mentoring your team and contributing to the broader vision of the company.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and manage the full financial function across multiple production sites in Canada, the U.S., and internationally
  • Oversee preparation and analysis of monthly financial statements, budgets, and forecasts
  • Implement financial strategies aligned with operational performance and growth objectives
  • Ensure compliance with accounting standards, including revenue recognition under complex project-based models
  • Monitor key performance metrics and introduce financial controls to drive profitability
  • Serve as a financial partner to leadership, translating data into actionable insights
  • Spearhead improvements in working capital metrics, including receivables, payables, and inventory
  • Play a key role in the implementation and optimization of a global ERP system
  • Champion a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement within the finance function
  • Establish standard operating procedures and elevate team capabilities through coaching and training

What You Bring

  • CPA designation (or equivalent) is required
  • 10+ years of progressive finance experience, including leadership roles in a manufacturing environment
  • Strong command of technical accounting and advanced financial principles
  • Proven ability to lead multi-site or international finance operations
  • Track record of driving process improvements and implementing financial systems
  • Exceptional communication skills and business acumen — you're equally comfortable in the boardroom and on the plant floor
  • Advanced skills in Excel and other core business tools; ERP implementation experience is a strong asset
  • High level of integrity, confidentiality, and professional maturity

Why This Opportunity?

  • Be the strategic financial leader in a company committed to innovation and operational excellence
  • Make a measurable impact across multiple regions
  • Join an experienced, collaborative leadership team with a clear vision for growth
  • Play a central role in shaping the future of finance in a fast-evolving, global business
  • Excellent compensation plan including base, bonus, and other incentives totalling $170,000 – 210,000.
