READY TO LAUNCH?
Do you want to join the Finance team of one of the most exciting space companies at the forefront of global change detection/change monitoring? The Treasury & P2P Manager will lead treasury operations and the end-to-end procure-to-pay ("P2P") process across multiple entities, own the consolidated cash-flow forecast, oversee payment execution and approvals, and provide functional leadership to the P2P team. This is a Vancouver-based hybrid position that requires regular in-office work.

PREPARE FOR IMPACT!

The position supports annual budgeting and forecasting, liquidity planning, audits, continuous process improvement, and team training. Success requires strong organization and prioritization, a sound understanding of payment controls and fraud risk, and the ability to coordinate effectively across Finance, FP&A, Legal, business teams, vendors, and banking partners.
