Lead and scale Solink's global accounting function to support high-growth and complexity.
Responsibilities
- We are seeking a Controller to lead and scale Solink’s global accounting function through a period of rapid growth and increasing complexity.
- This is not a traditional Controller role. You will be responsible for building the accounting infrastructure required to support a high-growth company, with a clear trajectory toward significant revenue growth over the next 3 years.
- Reporting to the CFO, this role combines strategic leadership, systems transformation, and operational excellence. You will act as a builder and architect, designing scalable processes, upgrading systems, and structuring the accounting organization for the next stage of growth—not just maintaining what exists today.
- This role is also part of a long-term succession plan, offering the opportunity to grow into broader finance leadership over time.
Requirements
- Candidates must undergo a criminal records check upon hire;
- Be a Canadian Citizen (dual citizens included), or eligible to work in Canada;
- Be willing to comply with Solink’s own security policies and standards.
How to apply
- We respect your time and value transparency. Here’s a general idea of what to expect:
- Intro call with our Talent Team
- Interview with the Hiring Manager
- Role-relevant task or case (if applicable)
- Final interviews with cross-functional team members
- Reference Checks
- Offer & onboarding 🎉
- Submit your resume and a short cover letter via our [ Careers Page ]. Let us know what excites you about this role, and how you’d help move Solink forward.
