The Opportunity
This is a hands-on finance role for someone who wants to improve the numbers, not just report on them.
Finance keeps a fast-growing product company accurate, on time and profitable. As we grow, we want to stay small and mighty. We need an analyst who owns the budget process, reconciles high-volume Amazon and Shopify revenue, runs month end inventory with Operations, and becomes the go-to finance partner for any team that needs numbers crunched.
You9ll work independently and get real autonomy. When a variance shows up, we expect you to know why before anyone asks, and to come with options, not just a diagnosis.
To be clear about scope: this is an execution-led role. You own the budget process, reconciliations, sales reporting and month end inventory adjustments. You support pricing, margin and forecasting, and work alongside the Controller on month and year end. A full day or more each week goes to reconciliations and budget to actuals. If high-volume detail work isn9t for you, this isn9t your role.
You9ll report to our Financial Controller.
What you9ll own:
Financial Analysis, Pricing & Budget [40%]
- Own the budget process: update budget vs. actuals, meet with budget owners and keep operating expenses at or under budget
- Reconcile Amazon and Shopify revenue against SAP and payouts, accurately and at high volume
- Support pricing: run price audits, set prices on new SKUs and keep price lists accurate so every customer invoice is right
- Find and act on ways to improve Amazon margin through pricing, fee and cost analysis
- Monitor gross margin trends and flag risks before they become surprises
Financial Reporting [20%]
- Complete month end tasks and support the Controller on month and year end packages
- Deliver monthly sales reporting the business can rely on
- Prepare monthly HST returns and support the annual audit
Operations Support [20%]
- Own month end inventory with Operations: process count results for all warehouses, post adjustments in SAP and explain variances
- Give Operations a finance perspective on sales forecasting
- Support inventory management, supply chain data, the returns process and ad-hoc problem solving
- Track KPIs and spot cost savings opportunities
Process Improvement & Growth Projects [20%]
- Take processes that work and make them better: simplify, automate and leave your mark, with at least one new or improved process every quarter
- Build financial models, cost-benefit analyses and forecasts for cross-functional projects
- Help the business get more out of SAP
- Analyze business performance and recommend improvements
You9re a good fit if you:
- Have 3+ years as a Financial Analyst or in a similar role (Finance Associate, Trade Analyst), with a bachelor9s degree in Accounting, Finance or Business / Commerce
- Are an Excel expert who builds clean, auditable models and reconciliations
- Have worked through month end close against firm deadlines and stayed accurate through high volumes of data
- Have taken over a process and made it better: automated a reconciliation, rebuilt a workbook or cut steps from the close
- Have worked in an ERP. SAP is a plus, but NetSuite, QuickBooks or similar works too
- Bring experience from a CPG, e-commerce or inventory-heavy business. Amazon or Shopify reconciliations and pricing work are a big plus
- Are a self-starter who takes a challenge and runs with it, and can explain numbers clearly to people who don9t live in spreadsheets
- Stay positive and approachable when priorities shift, and do your best work in a fast-growing, lean team
- Bonus if you have working knowledge of financial statements, Power BI, or a CPA (or are working toward one)
Tech stack
- Microsoft Excel (Expert)
- ERP systems: SAP, NetSuite, QuickBooks or similar (Intermediate)
