Role
Who you are
- You're known for your curiosity, your bias to action, and your ability to turn an ambiguous question into a documented, defensible answer
- Your CPA designation, with strong knowledge of US GAAP; SEC reporting experience is strongly preferred
- Significant accounting experience, including time in public practice, with a track record of technical accounting research and documentation of process and controls
- Strong analytical skills, with the judgement to make decisions based on accurate, timely analysis
- Solid project management instincts — the ability to scope ambiguous work, sequence it, and drive it to the finish line on your own
- Coachability and adaptability, with the flexibility to thrive amid change and experimentation in a growing organization
- A genuine team player who collaborates widely, champions best practices, and rolls up their sleeves when it's all hands on deck
- Experience working with a SaaS company is an asset
- Previous IPO, S-1/F-1, or public company experience is a big plus
- Experience using NetSuite is a plus
What the job involves
- Reporting to the Manager, Accounting, the Accounting Manager will drive the accounting projects that make the rest of the function better
- This is an individual contributor role with no direct reports, working in focused sprints — you sit outside the day-to-day general ledger close, but you understand it deeply enough to improve it
- Own technical accounting expertise, serving as the go-to resource for new or complex transactions — think revenue recognition (ASC 606), leases (ASC 842), stock compensation (ASC 718), business combinations, and capitalized software
- Lead our controls mapping work, connecting risks to controls, documenting how our processes run, and identifying gaps — building the internal control framework that lets us scale with confidence
- Bring a strong working knowledge of the month-end and year-end close, without owning it, so you can map controls and redesign processes with a real understanding of how they run
- Collaborate across Finance and other departments to deliver projects with cross-functional impact, and act as a resource for our Finance-owned tools
- Reimagine our accounting processes with AI, redesigning workflows around what Company-approved AI and automation tools make possible — building processes that are faster and better controlled, while applying professional judgement and human review to every output
Our take
For businesses that sell home services, it can be difficult to keep up with paperwork, scheduling appointments, and chasing payments, especially when their teams are small. Jobber delivers a comprehensive toolbox to keep track of all these aspects, so that small business owners can concentrate on more important things like serving their customers and building their brand.
Jobber was founded in 2011, initially to help a friend who owned a small painting business. The founders quickly discovered that what they were building could help many more owners across several industries, going on to launch the product, which is now used by over 300,000 home service professionals in over 60 countries.
What makes Jobber stand out is that it collects all the vital parts of running a home services business into one place, removing the burden of keeping track of multiple sources of information. The company has seen significant funding, which it has invested in R&D and growing its customer base, and boasts four consecutive years on The Globe and Mail's Canada's Top Growing Companies List.
