Primary duties include:

Prepare, coordinate, and develop reports and analyses to strengthen the continued integrity of The City's financial statements and reporting processes.
Review financial reporting packages for compliance with regulatory requirements and consistency with corporate policies.
Coordinate The City's financial consolidation processes and prepare the financial consolidation.
Develop, plan, coordinate and lead corporate financial policy development, studies and implementation.

Identify benchmarks and provide recommendations on best practices regarding financial policies and reporting processes.
Support ongoing modernization efforts within The City's financial reporting processes.

Previous experience with Public Sector Accounting Standards (PSAS), Accounting Standards for Private Enterprise (ASPE), and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) will also be considered assets.
Experience in financial consolidations, including preparing consolidated financial statements is considered an asset.
Exceptional technical skills, strong interpersonal skills, and the ability to direct and work effectively with others who are not direct reports.
Strong research and analytical skills with attention to detail; the ability to plan, coordinate and manage conflicting priorities; and well-developed communication skills in order to deliver presentations.
