Job Description:

The TorontoJobs.ca Recruiting Division is assisting our client in their search for a highly skilled and experienced Accounting Manager.

This remote role offers the opportunity to manage the financial operations of a family’s wealth and investments.

Important Note: Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Financial Oversight: Manage daily accounting functions, including financial statement preparation, general ledger entries, account reconciliations, and financial reports.
  • Team Management: Supervise and mentor a small team of accountants, fostering growth and ensuring high performance.
  • Tax Compliance and Planning: Collaborate with tax advisors to ensure timely, accurate tax filings and assist in strategic tax planning and reporting.
  • Investment Reporting: Oversee accounting for investments across asset classes such as private equity and real estate, ensuring precise tracking of valuations, distributions, and returns.
  • Cash Flow Management: Monitor cash flow, budgeting, and liquidity to maintain operational efficiency and financial stability.
  • Internal Controls: Develop and enforce financial policies and controls to protect assets and ensure compliance.
  • Audit Preparation: Coordinate with external auditors for annual audits of financial statements.
  • Financial Planning & Analysis: Provide financial analysis, forecasting, and reporting to senior family members to support strategic decisions.

Qualifications:

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (Master’s degree preferred).
  • Experience: At least 7+ years of accounting experience, including 3+ years in a managerial role, ideally within family office or private wealth management settings.
  • Licenses/Certifications: CPA designation preferred. Additional certifications (CMA, CFA, CFP) are a plus.
  • Skills:
    • Expertise in financial reporting, tax compliance, and investment accounting.
    • Proficiency in accounting software; Oracle experience is a plus.
    • Advanced skills in Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, financial modeling).
    • Exceptional analytical, organizational, and problem-solving abilities.
    • Strong leadership and team-building capabilities.
    • High level of discretion and ability to handle sensitive financial information.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

This position offers a unique chance to work with a dynamic team managing complex financial structures in a family office environment. The ideal candidate will enjoy autonomy, high-level interaction with senior stakeholders, and the ability to make a meaningful impact.

Personal Attributes:

  • Strong managerial skills to lead and support a remote accounting team.
  • Detail-oriented with a commitment to accuracy and precision.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities independently in a fast-paced environment.
  • Professional demeanor with excellent interpersonal communication skills.
